Goal #1 And Beyond - With Tracking Comments

My Goal - TO BE LIBERATED FROM INTERNET PORN - WEEK BY WEEK, FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. TO NEVER LOOK BACK AND SAY: 'IF ONLY I'D HAD THE COURAGE'.


1st Goal: To purposefully make it through to the end of the week - Mon 10th August. I'll update this post with a response on that date and tell you my thoughts and feelings. I'll diarise all future goals and outcomes as comments here too.

  1. I'm so happy this day has arrived when I can honestly say that I've reached my first goal. Not only that but I've not been tempted over the whole week. I feel so good in myself about that.

    I put that down to the fact that Ive put all my attention elsewhere, especially spending more time with my wife, working on this blog and listening to the music links here.

    I must say the music has been very theraputic as I hear the songs played over and over in my head.

    The next goal is set for Monday 17th August

    My best wishes to all who read this.

  2. I feel so good that I've reached my second goal and I've been free from this self imprisonment for 15 days.

    The thoughts of imprisonment took my mind to Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman's film: Papillon. I've just ordered it and it should arrive just when my next goal is reached:

    Monday 31st August.

  3. The DVD of the film Papillon arrived a few days ago and I saw it for the first time in about 20 years yesterday.

    The suffering those convicts endured was beyond words and Papillon's constant thoughts were of survival and escape.

    After his initial escape he was recaptured, only to be put in solitary confinement for years. However his spirit was never broken and he did eventually make his escape to freedom.

    The film put me in mind of another Steve McQueen movie: The Great Escape. Again, the thoughts of the capitive were on survival and escape, despite being sent to solitary confinement each time he was captured.

    That's how I feel about my determination to escape internet porn.
