Aye, I've got inspired by @Hitaru and by some other circumstances to do the Mindless browsing detox. I'm not 100% sure of what kind of websites I'm going to block ( probably YT, FB and Discord) and how I'm going to do this. I'll think of a plan tommorow.
-
Something that's been happening in the background is I'm about to reach 90 days without mindless browsing social media and YouTube. There's been a video here and there, but nothing like the old days, the time blocker made sure of that. If anything, there are so many things blocked that I'm having a hard time deciding where to invest the assigned daily hour!
About the military entrance exam, I don't feel there's much more to do, not much room to improve. The question now is if I'll go. I launched plan B before closing A and I might get my fingers stuck, but we'll see.
Dude, that's awesome!! I was thinking of doing something like that, since after quitting games, mindless browsing is the only thing that bugs me. But somehow, I never got the guts to do that, and I kinda regret that a lot. Since quite some time was wasted because of that.
P.S What kind of websites did you block? Like, only YT and FB or any other? I'm asking because I'm kinda short on ideas

18 wtf, that means I met a 16 yo Rem or something. I was taking you for much older lol.
Well, old man advice in that case, don't get too worked up with the "I'm a grown up now" mindset, it's a lie. You're legally responsible, which is different. Maturity is a fluid thing, just keep walking your path and you'll get there.
Miss ya boy, I don't get in the discord that often as you may have noticed. Hope life's treating you well!
@Hitaru thanks for your input man! Yeah I guess you're right, it's just the environment that I live in, that makes me think like that haha. But you know, turning 18 still felt different than any other birthday that I had before
Hey Rem. Congratulations on the 365 days and becoming 18.
Huge thanks @WorkInProgress !!
It felt super nice talking to you guys!!! I've missed this stuff way to much than I thought
-
Wow, I turned 18 like 2 days ago...Damn. I'm an adult now. Feels weird. It's probably the only birthday that I wasn't really waiting for, and I'm not even sure why. Probably because I ain't a kid anymore, and the playin' around is over. Time to get serious, take some responsibility, be responsible for my actions... I could give my left nut (joking
) just to be 13 again, not giving a single f**k about anything, just living my life and doing whatever comes up in my head. Basically not knowing that my future is on my shoulders, being clueless of what I'm going to do with my life... Aah I miss those days, they were easier in a way, but as my signature says, "Don't waste your time looking back, you're not going that way..." -
Happy B-Day Hitaru!!!

This is great, my brain has started the overdrive phase.
Awesome! Doing NoFaP/NoGaming at the same time might be a bit hard at the start, but it will surely pay off in the future. So I recommend you to stick with those.
Today games mattered very little.
That is progress my friend! Sooner or later this type of mind state will be your default one

Welcome aboard Leszek!!! I bet you'll enjoy your stay here
Congrats on getting close to 3months game free 
-
Yo, welcome Jess! I hope you'll enjoy your stay here
You should change the title from "gonna try this" to "I'm gonna do this".
Remember:
-
Wow I hope to emulate your example, Rem! Congratulations!
Thanks man! I bet you will

365-DAYS!!!!!!!
CLICK HERE FOR A SHORT/BORING POST -
It's DAY 365 so you know what it means
ONE FUCKING YEAR(without video games)
Ladies and gentleman. This year was nothing like I've experienced before. It was full of mindless browsing, procrastination, optimistic thoughts and turning points that changed my life forever. Quitting games was hella of a ride, but I'm glad that I've taken it. It's for the best. The only thing I'd change would be the thought that once I quit, everything's gonna be fine, I'll be super productive, motivated, full of energy etc. Yeah right...Boy, I was dead wrong...That's not how it works. If only I knew that quitting games was just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more to it, so much more for me to learn, so much space for me to grow. Over the course of one year I've I learned the most important thing-what kind of person I want to be.
I want to thank Cam personally for creating this wonderful place for people who want to live their lives to the fullest. Or at least get control over their lives.Thanks to you, now I have hope for my life. Thanks to you I got into personal development wich completely changed my outlook on life. Thanks to you my life is full of positivity and hope.Thanks to this place and the people here I'm a completely different person now!
Wherever the road of life leads me, Game Quitters will always be the start of it!
Mad respect for you Cam! You're the man!

Way to go man!

Man, I wouldn't recommend you doing that. Don't give up too soon, it's only the start. The reason why you've quit is that you couldn't moderate it.
Take a look at LT Yu, I see him on the Discord chat like less than 10mins per week. He's trying to get control over his life and it's working for him. You too can have a fulfilling life, but you have to work for it. When it comes to feeling lonely because of not using Discord. I fully understand you. That's the reason why I've been holding to it for so long. But when it comes too you having a fulfilling life ( having/doing everything you ever wanted) vs. Discord ( dropping memes, useless conversations) I think you should choose the first one. Like I've said before the chat is not going to disappear. -
As far as I remember you used to spent a lot of time on the net. So I can assume that you were addicted to mindless browsing, and you've stopped doing that a few days ago. Wich means that you're detoxing from it, and one of the most common withdrawal symptoms is boredom. You're not the only one who feels like that, same stuff happens to me. With time it will pass, it always does. You just have to find a way how to fill the free time with something.
About motivation, I can tell you something about it. Fuck it. FUCK IT. FUCK THAT SHIT. IT'S BULLSHIT. I'll quote Cam " We don't focus on fucking motivation, if you're focused on finding motivation, you're already lost. Motivation does not come from some inspirational video, it does not come from just some magic fucking "you woke up in the morning and you feel motivated". Motivation comes from action. Motivation comes from you getting up and pushing through that lack of motivation." So don't wait for the motivation to come, as our fellow discorder LT yu says, "Just do it". -
Love your updates bro!

DAY - Does the number still matter?
What's up folks,
I was at a barbecue-party like meet up with my classmates yesterday. It was really cool, had some fun. We built a fire and cooked some shish kebabs, sausages. It was really delicious! Played some card games wich were really fun. In a nutshell, a cosy atmospere.
Enough 'bout the positive part, let's talk about the darker side. You see, I'm a quiet dude, I might call myself an introvert or shy or socially anxious, the name doesn't matter. What matters is that I am this way, and I've been this way for the most of my life, and it pissess me off. I can't stand it. That's why yesterday, I was quiet most of the time. There was plenty of chances for me getting into conversations, but I just didn't. I have no clue why. Maybe because I was afraid that someone might notice that I've changed and be like "look who started talking" or something like that. It's so fucking stupid. I wouldn't give a damn if somebody said that, I'd just probably laugh or say something funny. But it was still holding me from using my vocal chords...Ehhh...My head acts weird sometimes -
We can't wait for the next entry Splosh
(no pressure) -
Congrats bro! Well done!!! What an achievement
-
BEWBS..
P.S Well done

Day - Whatever
Whaddep,
Soo...writers block
To describe today I'd probably play Ice Cubes "It was a good day". I've been recording today for like 4hours or something, did like a shit ton of takes, but only 2 of em were worth saving. Though in the evening, I started using Discord, wich turned out to be a form of procrastination. Gosh, I love and I hate that place at the same time. I'll have to do something about it.
Anyways, took some measures to beat my internet addiction. Thanks to the god sent program called ColdTurkey -Youtube, Facebook and the other time consuming places won't bother me for quite some time.- YouTube blocked for a whole week ✓
- Facebook blocked for a whole week ✓
- Discord blocked for 2 days ✓
Would ban those apps on my phone, but the problem is there's no such an app like ColdTurkey ( atleast to my knowledge). I guess, I'll have to be more careful with my fingers

Hey,
Since summer has come, I think I'll head back to my favorite hobby-journaling ( the sarcasm is real here).
I want for this summer to be something different. I don't want it to be like the previous one. Basically me just sitting at home all the time, browsing the internet all day and not getting control over my life. I mean gaming doesn't exist to me anymore, but I feel like my life ain't fulfilling enough. Sometimes it feels like mindless browsing took gamings place. I want to start living my life. I want something more. I want to improve my social skills, make new friends. Start living my life. Chase my passion in music without anything holding me down near the start line. I'm going to make a change this summer. I'll start off by beating my internet addiction and spending the time productively. -
Holy shit, nice to see you again WorkInProgress!

Finally, it's been a while!

DAY254
What's up, folks!Just came back home from my first party ever. Got drunk for the first time. So I guess it counts as stepping from my comfort zone ( god damn this phrase is generic af). I'm writing this because I want to brag of the decision I've made. Because I assumed that I'll be there alone all the time, but I decided not to let these negative thoughts to take control over and I had the moment of my life! It was awesome! No regrets! I'm proud of myself

So, I've come up with a plan/guidelines that gonna help me to get through this mess called Mindless browsing.
I've called this masterpiece
Rem's naughty list:
I know that the list looks pretty poor, but I'll probably add more as time goes. Since I can't remember every website that I had problems with. So I'm gonna watch my behavior on the internet very attentively in the future. I'm not sure whether I should journal my experiences with this every single day or not. Or just drop a line from there and then. Dunno, I'll see
