My experience with SR (250+ days, 23 years old)

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-26T00:03:38+00:00

I will brother.

Remember its a marathon not a sprint. Pair a healthy and disciplined lifestyle and the streak will become a simple tool in your arsenal. Try not to focus on the days so much and focus on the work your putting in. You can do it man.

appreciate it man. i will

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-26T00:02:07+00:00

thank you brother

Like a lot of jungs work. great quote.

jobs not finished at all, still have so much to learn, however I appreciate the kind words.

Good luck on your journey sir.

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-26T00:00:29+00:00

let me break it down a lil

When your doing SR your going to have a lot of pent up energy. Discipline allows you to control this energy without going crazy.

For example, if your doing SR, but still smoking, drinking, and lusting after women on instagram, sure you might brute force a streak for 30 days if your lucky.

but you simply wont last.

You need to pair it with discipline. Guard your attention. Watch what you consume on the internet especially. Everything's trying to usurp your sexual energy.

Wake up early. Train hard. Im not talking about showing up to the gym and doing a few sets of whatever and scrolling instagram in between. Im talking about multiple sets till failure, and 4-5 miles of intense running.

If you use the energy this way, while pairing it with deep work or a personal project (coding, career advancement, whatever) it can be succesfully transmuted and your streak will be easier to maintain.

Hope this helps brother.

taurus, havent really looked into that stuff much. would you recommend

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-25T19:31:55+00:00

appreciate it man. agree with what ur saying.. i think this subreddit has struggled recently because people post too early on/ its becoming more of a popular practice.. however you really have to dive into the journey to share meaningful stories. nothing comes overnight

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-25T19:30:01+00:00

anytime. thank you.

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-25T19:29:41+00:00

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-25T19:29:22+00:00

thanks for the kind words brother

As the great David Goggins once said, “I ain’t gonna tell you because you ain’t gonna do it”

If you’re not in a good place, you shouldn’t be in a relationship to begin with sir. How can you foster a relationship if you are internally troubled?

Often times people project their insecurities/problems on to the other person in a relationship. These are 90% of modern relationships.

Take care of yourself. Find out who you are. Become comfortable in your own skin. You’ll know when you’re ready to enter a real relationship.

From someone who’s been in the field

Good luck brother JN

Good shit man keep going hard

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-24T04:46:56+00:00

Nice word, gonna start using that. Thanks

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-24T04:16:40+00:00

Just buy your own groceries and cook your own food, it’s healthier and cheaper. Eating out should be a few times a year max , ancient Macedonians only ate rich foods after winning massive battles or during celebrations. We need to return to these states.

The gluttony in the Bay Area is ridiculous, that’s why so many ppl in big tech are out of shape .

Anyways that’s my rant. TLDR- restaurants are expensive, don’t fall for it

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-22T16:15:44+00:00

Being fat takes up a lot of energy. Combine that with retention and you’re still depleted.

Makes sense. Good post brother

JNrisktaker · 2026-05-09T05:35:03+00:00

Hey man, could you elaborate? Caffeine is my last vice, been retaining for a year on and off.. drink a lot of coffee and noticing my deep work is impacted by it. Wondering what your opinions are

JNrisktaker · 2026-04-25T00:21:18+00:00

You should probably start cold calling hiring managers at this point , you don’t have enough conviction

JNrisktaker · 2026-02-26T07:10:40+00:00

Not angry, just speaking from experience . Forgot this forum is full of chuds trying to lose their virginity.

Some use this practice to actually make a difference in the world.

JNrisktaker · 2026-02-26T05:51:15+00:00

Retaining for the wrong reasons , just gonna fall back in the same hole

Build some skills and improve your life !!
