KO

YOOO! What's good Game Quitters? It's KO. I have not been consistent with the journal and lost faith in myself. I was on Facebook and read a post that two of my high school friends recently passed way. I started to question my own morality, quarter of my life is almost gone and nothing to show for it. Unless you count crap like capped characters, achievements and gear. Life is way too short to get caught up in bullsh*t! I plan to reboot my journal on Monday.

Reset my mind with a cold shower and a meditation session. "A setback is a setup for a comeback"

YOOO! Cold showers are awesome! Especially clearing the mind. I'm doing a variation of Greyskull LP with accessories and calisthenics on off-days. The basics, bench, squat, dead-lift chin ups. YOOO! Glad I could motivate someone YOOO! Haha, thank you. One of the only good things I got from video games YOOO! I agree with this, if I quit gaming and still browsing the internet until 4am YOO! Thank you, I agree, discipline>motivation. Quitting cold turkey, recognizing habit cues and blocks are all I have so far to combat time wasters. YOO! The benefits are amazing! The best one is being done fairly quickly.

DAY 1 YOOO! What's good Game Quitters? It's KO! Starting day 1 of my EPIC journey. I decided to quit video games, specifically MMOs because they are all monotonous! I grind, grind and grind for levels so you can reach the fun parts. Do some more uninspired questing because I “have to”. And obtain the best gear until it becomes obsolete in couple of months. It wasn’t fun at all, it was the opposite! Down right frustrating. I tricked myself into thinking that I was an accomplished bada**. Once I logged off nobody cared who I was. Time is one of my most precious resources. Why would I waste it on; something that isn’t real, provides no value to my life, and fails to entertain me. Why not invest my time and energy into useful?“The Matrix” red pill and blue pill metaphor made more sense to me. Either drink the blue potion and keep on playing games to escape life. Or I chug the red potion and accept that my life isn’t great but I can level it up it I grind it out. Noob Traps: What holds me back in the game of life. And how I counter them. Internet browsing-I set blocks and timers for websites I spend too much time on. Video Games-uninstalled all my games and deleted all my accounts, no point in going back. Drugs-Too expensive and I cut all ties from people participate in drug culture. Porn-Multiple adult blockers. Nofap button. TV/Videos-I will only watch lectures/informative videos. I will cut any non stimulating TV show such as Big Bang Theory, Friends, Family Guy, etc. I will only watch stimulating TV shows during my downtime(Sundays). For example: The Wire, Sherlock, Seinfeld, Rick and Morty, Duckman, etc. Daily Quests: I’m starting small with my daily habits and gradually add more once I start to get into my routine Meditation-Yes/No Fitness-Yes/No Reading-Yes/No Project-Yes/No Achievements: The long term/short term goals I set for myself Scroll(s) currently being read: Every week or two, I will read a book and discuss it Influence Stats: I give myself letter rankings to some of my attributes Spirit: D- This stat represents my willpower/discipline. How well I resist temptations Wisdom: D-This stat represents how well I can use the knowledge I have attained in an ethical way. Strength: D-This stat represents how well I can deal with setbacks Charisma: D-This stat represents how well I can handle social interactions. Potential: A-This stat represents how much I can still learn and grow. Adventure Log: Keeping track of what happens everyday -Woke up around 5:30 am but didn't get up until 8:00 am -From 8:00 am to 9:00 am I was idle -9:00 am to 10:30 am I wrote in my notebook -10:40 am to 10:50 am I meditated. -11:00 am to 12:23 pm Workout -12:40 pm to 12:50 Cold shower -12:50 to 1:00 pm Break -2pm to 3pm Project -3pm to 6:35pm took a nap -6:40pm to 7:00pm Dinner -7:00pm to 8:00pm Scroll of the week -8:00pm to 9:00pm Lectures -9:00pm to 10:00pm Get ready for bed and plan the next day accordingly Not the best start, I definitely need to work on managing my time, prioritizing and disciplining myself. “Blows and wounds scrub away evil, and beatings purge the inmost being.” -Proverbs 20:30 I really appreciate all the support

YOOO! What's good Game Quitters? It's KO! Day is the day. What makes this day so special? Absolutely nothing! I'm just going "monk" for one year while I record my progress. Abstaining from all time wasters and vices. And replace them with more meaningful activities. After every week and month, I will give myself a debrief and then a final review once one year has elapsed.No excuses just effort and execution. LET'S GO!

Yooo! What's good Game Quitters? My name is Kwabena, I'm 19 years young and starting my 3rd semester of college. I was going to go on a gaming spree this summer but I snapped. I looked at my self in the mirror and uttered "when are you going to stop lying." In a snap decision, I deleted all my MMORPG accounts, uninstalled all my games and set up various parental blocks. "Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta" looped in my head during the process. I googled "how to stop being a loser" then that led to "live a more interesting life ". Which led to "how to stop watching TV" then led to "how to stop browsing the internet" then "how to stop pmo" and finally "how to stop playing video games". I reached out to Cam and he directed me here. I hope to learn and grow with you with all. Smash mediocrity and strive for mightiness
