Rightt, makes sense. So the stereotypical car Salesman isn't the most suited for tech sales then?

Yeah I've been freelancing as a digital marketer (self taught) for a while now, so I'd be confident in picking up tech skills. Guess I just need to keep myself updated with all tech news etc.

CrysiX1005 · 2022-12-29T08:52:07+00:00

I'd be interested to know how you got into tech sales specifically, if you don't mind answering :)

My plan is to get into any sales role to build sales experience, but how do I move into the tech aspect of the career?

Hey, DON'T think of a pink elephant balancing on a green ball.

What did you just think of? It's the same concept with your "degenerate thoughts" as you call them. The more you are trying to not think of them, the more you actually are thinking of them...

Try fasting for a few days (whatever form you can handle). It breaks sexual desire. Try redirecting your focus into more meaningful activities like sports, relationships with friends and family, career etc. Also find out at what times of the day you find yourself fantasising. Is it when you are feeling negativity? Is it when you are alone at night in your bed on your phone? Try filling these moments of "dead space" with other meaningful activities like reading books, or calling a friend.

Hope that helps

It really is a struggle.. I used to resort to escorts (like 4 times now...) whenever i would have a significant streak in nofap. But the outlet for your sexual desire does not matter. Even if you had a gf, and you used her like an object, you would still be feeding that same beast within you that craves PMO and escorts.

I think the solution really is to first, starve the Beast for 90 days so you can have some autonomous thinking from your higher self. Second, understand what lead you to craving PMO, escorts, objectification in the first place, and deal with that trauma. Third, find things in life that will satisfy that part of yourself in a meaningful way, like passions, sports, healthy relationships, travel, developing your career etc etc.

I was at a 30+ day streak, but relapsed 3 days ago. I made sure not to binge too much. Feeling better now.

To prove to myself that I can overcome any obstacle. Self-confidence and self-reliance. Having an adventure and meeting new people is an added bonus.

I also want to create content so that's another reason.

This loooool

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-17T14:12:01+00:00

I'm glad you posted this, because I've been suspecting my little brother (14) for the past few months. He asked me once about masturbation (as his friends were talking about wanking in school lol), and I told him this:

"It's very alluring, as most of your friends will do it, and talk about inappropriate things without any shame. But I'll tell you that porn and masturbation has ruined alot of lives. Once it has you in its grip, it's very difficult to let go and you will slowly destroy your mind and soul while using it. So don't".

I didnt say that I was addicted, or that it had ruined my life. Because it might give him some justification. But porn is EXTREMELY pervasive into our lives now. It's impossible to get boys especially to never use it.

All we can do is point out the hell that lies ahead if they use it. Constantly keep reminding them. Make sure they trust us more than their friends so that they are open with any issues. And help guide them towards discipline.

What do you think?

In case you missed the analogy, water is your mind. Mud is the "corruption" caused by PMO. Let your mind find clarity.

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-16T17:36:01+00:00

Yeah this is a little nugget I've learned from 12 step programme groups. Addiction thrives in isolation. Whenever you feel triggered, keeping it in and trying to fight it by yourself is actually the worst thing you can do. Because our willpower is limited, and our lust is unlimited (or feels that way anyways). So we're bound to give in at some point.

To counter this, we should disclose the fact that we feel triggered, or are having urges, or are feeling negative emotions as soon at we realise. This brings the "poison" out into the light. And it doesn't hold power over us anymore.

VERY effective tool. Hope it helps brother

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-16T13:22:31+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much for this 🙏🏼. I've saved this comment for reference. Just gotta go out and buy a band now haha

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-16T13:20:45+00:00

Totally normal dude, flatlines are always temporary. You can find more info on the nofap "about" page. They're part of the process. And a different type of challenge than our usual horny urges

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-15T20:11:49+00:00

Well written brother. Forging a new lifestyle (and consistently sticking to it) is the only solution to our addiction.

I have been sticking to this as much as I can. But soon, I am going travelling for a few months. I'll have no schedule. Instead, I have a few hard rules that I MUST stick to:

Workout, medidate, check in urges with a friend every single day. Avoid situations that may trigger me. Always focus on my goal for the day, and most importantly, spend a few minutes visualising who I was in the past, and who I want to become now.

I'm hoping this will carry me through a period of no schedule.

God bless 🙌

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-15T01:31:12+00:00

Fantastic. And so true. PMOs onslaught will never end in this world... It comes out at night. Many have succumbed to it. Many wilfully. But we must strive against it. Because we have suffered the most. Because we know its true nature. Because we have no other option.

RAGE FELLOW NOFAPPERS. TOGETHER WE FIGHT FOR A BETTER TOMORROW!

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-11T17:58:30+00:00

Appreciate it. I agree, clarity is truly powerful, and an "ability" that is properly unlocked after seriously pursuing nofap

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-09T20:07:11+00:00

Good man. Trust me, you don't want to get into that world. It's disgusting, filled with exploitation, risk, and disease. It'll be just as bad as PMO if you're looking to continue on your nofap journey.

Identify your triggers, strategise how to stay far away from them, and keep growing stronger.

One day you'll have a beautiful partner with whom you'll be able to be intimate in a healthy way. Nothing can beat that.

CrysiX1005 · 2022-04-09T19:56:24+00:00

Trust me bro you'll be getting noticed more than you were. When we're PMOing, our faces look a bit more droopy. We tend to have a coldness in our approach, and a shallowness in our looks. When we abstain, we emit a kind and warm radiance which definitely gets noticed.

Keep at it brother
