Porn blockers might help, but they won’t be as effective. And you know nudity isn’t just on Pornhub—it’s everywhere. Don’t joke with fire.
Keep in mind that, there is always a system for any problem. You just need to be willing to think hard enough and BE WILLING TO MAKE SACRIFICES.

“YOU 2.0” is like your future kid. It’s your duty to make decisions for him. It is wiser to marry a nice mom for your kid, not just a beautiful wife for yourself.
What I need from you?
If a narcissist can't feel remorse, can they ever feel regret for an evil act after going to rehab?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.

PICK 1 important thing you want to quit or bring into your life in 2025. Think hard about a system that will make it impossible or inevitable.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
