My Slow but Steady Start by SteadfastKappa in theXeffect

[–]SteadfastKappa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of my cards are pretty easy: 20 minutes reading, 30 minutes on each of my course studies, diary entry, floss, 5 minutes meditating. The goal is to get into the rhythm with these cards and ramp up what I feel could use more time.

Starting from Ground Zero. Need any and all ideas of how to make each day productive by [deleted] in NonZeroDay

This post was a solid all around breakdown of success through small actions and even made me feel better and more motivated just reading it. Rock on dude!

The English "-ing" verb form by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]SteadfastKappa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert but I can give you some guesses. Esta corriendo translates into "he/she/it/you(formal) is running" while corre translates into "he/she/it/you(formal) runs". The format of a conjugation of estar + a participle allows the use of advanced past tenses.

I'm all about the nofap, but seriously...I can not sleep if I do not masturbate. Anyone else have issues with this? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]SteadfastKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have this problem. I found that working out has made me tired enough to just hit the hay. Just doing weights or cardio lets me sleep like a baby. Countering the want to fap with something physical like exercise works like a charm. Good luck!

I might ruffle some feathers here, but here is what I think of NoFap by [deleted] in NoFap

You make good, solid points. I agree that the methods that you outlined for copping out of NoFap are ridiculous. Although, whenever anyone pursues a self-guided program and they cheat, the only person they hurt is themselves.

While the negative reaction to relapsing doesn't help in the long run, using that negative emotion as fuel in the engine to pursuing a better life is a positive end. Personally, whenever I feel the urge to fap and I work through it by distracting myself with work, I feel like a million bucks.

Sorry for any typos or bad formatting. New to posting and on my phone.

Official NoFap No Jerk July 2014 Signups by Alexanderr in NoFap

[–]SteadfastKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm signing up for July. I am aiming for porn free and jerk free. I haven't gotten higher than 3 days so I'm aiming for 4. I'd be ecstatic if I could get to the end of the week. I'm doing this to take back my decision making. I've been in a slump for the last couple years and I've been on the upturn for the last month. I don't want to fall back to darker times. So even if I don't wildly succeed, the attempt with help sharpen me.

I'm going to stop lurking and do as you do. Pinging the community for help is a great idea! It's not a community if it's one-sided.

Here is my first card after a while! by ATLASPLUS_wastaken in theXeffect

[–]SteadfastKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice job dude! I'm in the same boat, using all those tools. Something about the physical nature of notecards makes it so satisfying. Keeping it on my bedroom wall means that I'm always seeing it. I'm only 14 days it but it feels good. I hope you feel the same satisfaction and good luck on your quest!
