Imagine having no money, phone or computer.

Having to work because you are fucked if you don't

To have this mentality is a game changer, an aggresive aproach

I have been wasting time for far too long, and knowing my vices I will still do in the future

Closed my Instagram account for a few months

Now only Youtube and the forum can distract me
(Does anyone know if there is widget to control youtube time use?)


A routine will help you set your goals straight,
I barely want to step foot on my rented flat,
Be out all day just doing what I am supposed to do

All the things I want to do and I still waste time
Everyone else partying every weekend
My life has to be better than theirs for all of this to have been worth it.

So Help Me God

You are so correct, i’m still trying to think of a high iq justification that will get me working. Lmk if you think of any

If it helps, so far I have realised that being literally unable to do it will help you.
For example, if you have a porn addiction but you are all day out of your house (working,studying) it will make NoFap easier.
Then deactivating social media:

tiktoks/reels/youtube shorts have ruined our lives
I hate them, yet still get lost scrolling in them
They are built like a fucking slot machine, an addiction created machine.

Even this forum men, I get anxious to see that fucking bell with a notification lmao, maybe I'll take some time from here
 
It's very fun interacting with bros in here, but at the same time we need to start working on stuff to get a better life.

No widget will help you moderate usage of YouTube or other distractions/vices, it is a Comfort addiction. You can use YouTube and other social medias from time to time without this incessant struggle and that's by not using them for distraction/vice. When you feel angst you respond to it by doing what you are supposed to do, don't bury that feeling through distractions/vices.

There’s a YouTube plugin that allows you to remove the homepage

It’s called unhook I use it and my time on YouTube reduced drastically

safety net in money forums is usually 6 month of rent and utility bill money
