you feel great. When you get an amazing grade after studying for that exam that you pulled

two all nighters for you feel amazing. And when you get that promotion that you've been

eyeing at for a couple of years already, you feel phenomenal. But even when you open up

your laptop and you go on some raunchy website, and you masturbate to porn, you feel good

too. These are all rewards. But the thing about the act of PMO (watching porn, masturbating,

and eventually reaching orgasm) that separates itself from the rest of the crowd , is the

fact that you don't really have to work for it. It is virtually effortless to obtain.

Let's put things into perspective. In order to get that satisfying feeling that comes

with getting a good grade, you have to go to class. You have to take semi-decent notes.

And eventually you have to study. This requires a significant amount of time and effort. Watching

porn on the other hand is easy. You open up your laptop and you click your mouse a couple

of times until you find a video that you like. And instantaneously you can reward yourself

with pleasure. On top of that, porn and masturbation triggers one of the most powerful and pleasureful

rewards your body can naturally give itself, the orgasm. It's a reward that is normally

only achievable by meeting a potential mate, coming off as an attractive mate, and eventually

growing the balls to make a move and having sex. Nowadays it's available at the click

of a button. If you could get an A on any test by just clicking a button would you ever

put in the time to study? If you could lose weight or gain muscle with the click of a

button, would you ever go to the gym? Would you ever adjust your diet? If you could get

any girl or guy with the click of a button, would you go out and socialize? Would you

try to make yourself more attractive? Would you even approach members of the opposite

sex? See people who masturbate and watch porn a lot often report lower levels of motivation

and energy. This is because one of the most pleasurable things in nature is already in

arms reach, at the CLICK OF A BUTTON. There's been a movement in the past couple of years

that's gathered a lot of momentum going on called the NoFap movement. It's members try

to resist the temptations of porn and masturbation , that is literally plastered all over the

place in modern society. The majority of it's members who stop PMO for over 30 days have

reported some of the following benefits. Increased levels of motivation. Increased energy levels.

And increased confidence in social interactions. See when you tell your body that, "No, you're

only ever going to get this tasty, beautiful, pleasureful reward if you actually go out

there and earn it," your body will start to adjust so that it becomes possible. It's going

to give you the energy and the motivation that you need for that journey. So stop rewarding

yourself today for doing absolutely nothing and you will see a change. And it's not just

watching porn that can have this effect. There's other rewards out there that can have a similar

detrimental effect to your lifestyle. Things like sugary foods, video games, drugs, and

even alcohol. These things are all forms of instant gratification. They're to easy to

obtain and they provide short bursts of pleasure. And the reason people who do NoFap find themselves

on the path of success or on a path of upward growth, is not just because they don't watch

porn or masturbate. It's actually because they've retaught themselves how to put in

TIME and EFFORT before reaping REWARDS. To put in work in order to succeed. To exercise

in order to feel healthy. To study in order to feel smarter. To meditate in order to feel

happier and many other examples. What members of NoFap are actually doing, is they're forcing

themselves TO SUCCEED in order to FEEL PLEASURE. When you reward yourself for doing nothing

all of the time, you'll find that your mentality will be just like that of a dog who is given

too many treats. Lazy and Unmotivated.

Ask yourself this:

AM I REWARDING MYSELF ALL THE TIME FOR DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING?
