Here's a reply I wrote 23 hours ago and which is awaiting moderation because of inserted links. I thought I'd post it meanwhile without the links until the moderator approves it: Welcome! Here's some wisdom from the "Sober time" app I used to count days without ________. "I'm not telling you it's going to be easy, I'm telling you it's going to be worth it." -If you're serious about this I'd also suggest you completely delete your Steam account as suggested in the Respawn book by Cam Adair, and as I did in my september 29 2022 post, and possibly Battle.net if you have the option. -I think there's no need to hope it will become permanent. Just go ahead with the 90 days. It's hard as it is. Even if you just accomplish that and then return it will have been 90 days more than 0. -If you're not already making these 9 habits you wrote here, I would not commit myself to any of them, perhaps one at best. It is a trap that many people fall into with new year's resolutions. It's like saying that by next month you will run a marathon when you never ran before. Setting any habit requires willpower, quite a lot of it. So just stick to your main 90-day commitment and if you really want you may do any of the other 9 if you feel like it, after these 90 you may commit to 21 on any of the other activities[that's just my opinion though]. -By the way you may use the Sober Time app I mentioned earlier to have it count the days you've been clean from gaming and gaming videos Let's see how it goes for you. Remember you may fall at 5 days at 2 days or at 1 day. But what counts is how fast you'll stand back up again. "Rocky Balboa: What is it you said to the kid? It ain't about how hard you're hit, it's about how you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward."
