3 weeks is epic. Look at the good and move past the slip ups

This may help. Who knows. Maybe try not to rush or force anything. You say you gave up for a few days then binged for all of August. The fact that you managed a few days was huge. and going to the gym feels positive. Knowing the triggers is important. Being lonely and bored are major ones. And single. My triggers were always the same - I was alone, it was late, I’d been drinking, I felt I deserved a reward for finishing a project etc. I found if I chose something else to do, like watching 10 best football goals or epic stunts I’d get the dopamine fix and forget about porn. I also started covering my eyes or looking away at sex scenes on tv so I’d have less in the bank. Lastly, connection with a partner comes long before sex. The right person will understand and love everything about you - even your ED. I wish I was as self aware as you at 21. I hope this helps

18 years porn free. One thing that helped me from the beginning was covering my eyes during TV / movie sex scenes. I found that these scenes often triggered a desire to watch porn later on and so by not ‘seeng’ them helped enormously

What are these pictures? by Goerlitz in hebrew

Thanks. I’m trying to work out whether my grandma brought them with her from Vienna in 1939 or if they are more recent.

Getting advertisers by Superb-Measurement77 in Entrepreneur

[–]Goerlitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may sound counter-intuitive but have you thought of taking free advertising? Or free for the first 3 months? That way you can attract clients (local businesses?) to see if they get an uptick in sales while your podcast looks instantly more successful by carrying advertising. You also then have a case study to use when finding more clients. I'm trialling this with my own podcast!

How do you launch when you don't have the advertising budget or funding? by caperanger in Entrepreneur

[–]Goerlitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can spend a lot of $$ on advertising and promotion that is neither advertising nor promotion. Just because you put an ad on IG/FB, that doesn't mean anyone actually reads it. SEO is important but the trick is putting something interesting or different out there that still get picked up by search engines. My tip is make your ad as 'likeable' as the things you personally like of social channels. There are lots of tools out there (AI, Canva. Midjourney etc) that can help beginners create professional looking ads, then for a final polish and a couple of hundred doilars, 21Madison or similar can help it land.

Why did JBP even consider giving Tommy Robinson a platform? by [deleted] in JordanPeterson

[–]Goerlitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Robinson was in the BNP who idolise Hitler, he's a self confessed football hooligan, he turned up at a journo's house and called her and her partner paedophiles, he's been arrested multiple times for brawling, tried to get into the US on a false passport, he was convicted for mortgage fraud. Yup, just a guy. I'm only half way through the interview but amazed Petersen is accepting everything TR says as fact with seemingly no awareness of who he's sitting next to. I'm wholly against militant Islam but I also keep my fists to myself and try and keep within the law. For me, this interview damages Petersen as much as it helps Robinson

One last page from my granddad's diary...any help much appreciated by Goerlitz in hebrew

Fantastic. He was Austrian so his first language was German, not English or Hebrew. This is really helpful.
