If you're a Jehovah's Witness, like Lobber, there is. It gets you into BIG trouble! |
Sounds more like controlling people to me and can only do more harm than good. Look out how that turned out with the Catholic church... |

No, I'm not commiting suicide.... EVEN BETTER!.....
I cancelled my internet connection today! 
Tomorrow, it goes off FOREVER.
I will be returning to life in the real world
I wont have any more internet pornography addiction
I wont have any more online gaming addiction
I wont have any more wasted time chatting, posting, or reading irrelevant online data.
In short, I will be returning to a state of spirituality, and regressing my bad habits out of existance.
Just thought I'd say goodbye before I go.

I used to struggle with internet pornography. Those "dating" ads on Myspace didn't help either! |

Nope, I'm quiting both of those habits.
...Why ? Are you aiming to be a monk , or similar sexuality ? Or , " save yourself " until you are married ?
I figured out how to do it too.
I travelled forward in time to the me(future) that has[been(will be)] already overcome those habits.
In other words, I visualized what life would be like three months down the road where I have overcome the habits completely. Figured out what kind of person that would be, what he would do, and what he wouldn't be doing, and visualized how he would live his life. Then, instead of thinking that I am the person that is trying to achieve that eventual goal, I now see myself as that future self who has already overcome those problems.
Therefore, whenever temptation comes up, I think, not what will I do to overcome it, but what would he(future self) have done (thought) to have already had overcome it, and therefore act as though I was already him, therefore not doing it.
All I need to do is wait out the three months until we sinc temporaly and I become the future me that I already am being now, that I will be then, which will be the now future, but is being acted as the now now which is the past from the then.
Time travel seems complicated, but its quite simple really. Just act like the person you envision yourself to be after having overcome your problems, instead of acting like the self you are today. |
