NoFap + Cold Showers + Journaling For 90 Days: What I've Learned

If you're watching this video, it's likely that youre interested in personal development. I just released my new full length self help book "The Middle Way: How to Strategically Use Laziness to Enhance Your Creative Power".

Many guys get too attached to porn...and that effects their perspective when dating. They'll put themselves in harms way just for some p-sleeve.

@TUSHAR PALAN you should Google stuff before speaking.. i respected your opinion of spider silk and included it in my comment, but you just needed to show everyone how smart you are. So to completely destroy your knowledge base, I searched google and found that the tensile strength of carbon nanotubes is 20 times that of spider silk of the same diameter, and carbon nanotubes is the strongest material discovered till date. Spider silk doesn't come close dude.

[@Coldcloves]

@TUSHAR PALAN so you are indeed saying that carbon nanotubes are used to toughen spider silk.. which further proves my point.. chains need tensile strength to not break btw.. so you should look up tensile strength charts

Ive watched countless videos and talked to people online but for some reason your video is resonating so much more with me. Something about just the bluntness and honesty you give. Talking about how you had a bad relationship and you were in the darkest spot you've been so you decided to set on a quest to improve your life, and how your mind still races from time to time like I feel like most people pretend everything Is good all the time. I think that's what I need. I like goals so I think I need to just commit to the goal of improving my life.

Also i have a clearer mind, which is amazing!

I remember going through army basic training and journaling every single day, going through forced no fap, and yeah constant cold showers. I felt really good, it took my mind off things when they were getting tough, and I felt genuinely really happy and putting down the things that I was really grateful for. I'd write about the things I did every single day throughout basic training, and when I missed a day I'd always spend like half the night writing about it, and when it was around the time I got out, I started fucking up, and like forgetting about the things that I achieved. I guess it was cause I was hyper infatuated with my girlfriend at the time cause I missed her so much after 3 months of being gone, and I really couldn't wait to see her. I'd say basic training was ever really the healthiest I've been. Not jerking off every single day, working out, and always doing something within these days. Around when I got out of basic training, I was genuinely happy with all I've accomplished, and like afterwards in AIT (Advanced Individual training) I've threw all of that down the drain since, well I had the chance to be a bit more free and wild. Recently my girlfriend broke up with me last Sunday morning after a solid 3 year relationship, god that hurts to think about and say.. It was over the phone, and man I shed fucking tears like a fountain, I cried and pleaded with her and all, and she just kept brick walling me, and saying I hate to see you like this, but this isn't going to change my decision about this. It was a genuine time that I felt like goddamn, I'm literally worthless without this woman. I know, it is a pathetic mindset, but, It's how my mind was set to be in the relationship, and especially after. I want to start fixing myself for the better, and I really want to find my own self-worth for the better. I started coming around your videos recently. The day after she broke up with me, I came across your videos, and watched your video about getting through a breakup and what you learned. It was amazing though, and I was so happy to see your gigantic improvement, but at the same time I was stuck in my zone, wondering if things will ever be better for me. But, after tad bit of healing and talking to people about it.. I feel like I feel my self-worth was coming back genuinely. I still cry about the relationship, and whatnot, and how I could've improved in a-lot of ways. I never wanted to join the army, but it was because of her, and it was out of the spur of the moment and wanted to marry her so bad, and take her with me while in, but of course things didn't go as planned and well she didn't want to, and I will admit I was definitely rushing it, and that's my fault. But, I guess the breakup was for the better, to help me find my actual self in the midst of nothing, and finally wake up out of the trance of infatuation and love. I really want to better myself and change my lifestyle, and find my own happiness when their is none, and I guess this is where I need to start in general.

[@ArthurEverling]

A little help for cold showers is you don't have to go straight into the Cold. Similar to weight training is add a little more every time. Progressively lower the water temp as you're in the shower. If you get to a point where you can't go anymore, stop, and stay at that temperature. Once you get used to it, push yourself a little more.

When he says that over time cold showers get easier, I don’t think he means that it doesn’t feel as cold, or at least it won’t be that big of a difference. From my experience it’s your mental toughness that improves. I went from jumping into a cold shower and feeling in shock and breathing heavy to being able to just walk in and take the cold. I would personally recommend taking cold showers they make you feel great. Good luck

[@jayce842]

Would you say cold showers are only beneficial in the morning, to give you an energy boost? Or is it still recommended even if you shower at night?

[@ShadowG72]

With cold showers, I have found much success starting with hot water to wash the private areas, then turn down the water gradually to a temperature you can handle. As you wash up, your body will get used to the temp, so you can turn it down further as you shower. Eventually, your body will get used to colder and colder temps

[@GioVortex]

@@rav1617 Keeping up with the journaling and cold showers, picked up some hobbies and skills since I realize I didn't really have anything appealing about me. Eating healthier and working out, I wanna bulk up cuz im pretty scrawny, or at least I used to be, I'm getting bigger slowly but surely. Honestly, nofap has been kicking my ass. Once the urge comes it's so difficult to get rid of, but I'm cutting myself off from stuff that encourages the behavior. I haven't given up yet and I don't plan to anytime soon! Honestly wasn't expecting a message like this and I'm glad I finally checked my yt notifs haha. Wish you the best in whatever journey you're on as well, stay strong.

[@Reece8u]

Rather than saying "Use that energy elsewhere" What you described sounds more like "Get out of an environment where you can even fo that" which honestly, I think is great advice

[@damonbervoets1435]

Very informative, interesting to hear your points on these subjects. I would say, as someone who's very shy, and has mild to moderate social anxiety, NOFAP works EXTREMELY well at getting rid of the anxiety, and that's no bulls*t. Found it to be far more effective than beta-blockers or antidepressants (but can only speak for me, and respect the fact that what works for one person may not for another). Walking into a shop and speaking to the customers and staff with confidence became easy if on NOFAP for a week or more. Whereas, if off NOFAP, walking into a shop with people would cause anxiety, and avoidance altogether. Found myself wanting to go out and seek out conversation, rather than avoiding it, and the motivation to seek out a better life became very strong. This all goes away if spanking the jank on a regular basis.

[@ewan12kd]

Stoic mind to stay strong on goals. I quit porn 136 days ago and am so much happier ever since, 5 days ago I started nofap medium mode and began cold showering for 2 minutes every morning. I have been journalling for a while now as it's a stoic practice I live by and I can say I feel so much better from the combination of all of these habits working together. Become the person who deserves the success and the girl you want by working on yourself and being the greatest version you can be. Thanks for the video it helped reinforce my motivation even more.

Oh yes!!!! Bring it on! " 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Writing it down sounds wtf, but in the moment is super helpful
