I managed to do it but I literally stopped thinking, unironically “just turn your brain off bro” is the best advice you’ll ever receive.

Stopping/slowing down to think = death, once you stop moving you’re done for. I first started by basically deep cleaning my room, after that I started learning programming during my day job and for an hour or so after work, started a business online, it all kind of worked because I just stopped sitting around thinking and turned my brain off. Not a LARP either. I still am the same person I was, I just don’t allow my mood or in the moment emotions to change the thing I know I need to do, you’ll find that a lot of the negative emotions you thought were just a part of who you were are actually just very temporary sensations if you just keep moving.

>how do i beat procrastination?
I offer the answer knowing you won't do it: Very first thing you do in the morning when you wake up is meditate. If you can't get out of bed when you wake up go get your test levels checked. After meditating spend a few minutes listening to music that emotionally moves you. During this time think about how you are eventually going to die. Don't think about how, just that one day you'll not be "here". Go about your day.

[Anonymous No.53776461]

I’ve beaten it I believe by picking and choosing where to apply my energy. I’ve found if I’m procrastinating it’s generally because I’m unsure about what choice to make, so I instead turn that procrastination into useful time by thinking and coming to a conclusion on what choice to make. Once I’ve made a decision, there’s little point in not doing it. Also a healthy dose of humility helps, the worlds not going to be gone tomorrow and sometimes not doing something is totally fine, and even a better choice maybe.

The reason I'm an adult kissless virgin is simply because I was never motivated to pursue to change my situation.

If I actually wanted to not be a kissless virgin that bad I'd do something about it long ago, in the worst case get a hooker as a jump start. But the truth is I simply don't care about it enough to want to change my situation, so I just live my life and if something happens cool, if not who cares not the end of the world, clearly I'm not motivated enough either way

Pay attention to everything you do when you feel good and feel bad. Food, sleep, social activity, etc. You'll most likely find a pattern. Once you do this you can see how good food, good sleep and so on makes you feel better. And it stops being a mystical thing of the ether that some days you feel good, some you don't. And a case of doing XYZ to get back on track.
Positive thinking works amazingly but no one wants to hear it. Everything negative you expose yourself to you mind and body takes in. Surround yourself with negative shit and you'll reap the consequences.

Correct. It takes a moment of extreme emotion. It's gotta be something that makes you break down into uncontrollable tears.

It's also gotta be deeply personal. Any time you read a story about someone else being successful doing a thing you reduce the likelihood of change. You'll be going through the motions someone else set out for you rather than choosing it for yourself.

I lost my virginity at 24.
At the time i felt like there was something wrong in some ways because it seemed excessively late for such a thing. However i knew there was nothing wrong with me too. I had been working out years at that point, but just never made an effort because like you i kinda didnt care to just have sex for the sake of it especially after i cum.
I had kissed women etc when i was in high school and went to parties and some(not so great looking but ok) girls showed interest but i was socially awkward imo. I blew the chance at 16 hardcore once too due to that.

Anyways as i got into 20s opportunities got more seldom and started feeling weird sometimes.

When I eventually lost it i was like… is that it? Im married now and sometimes I prefer to masturbate. No porn addiction and my wife is attractive. Its just not that big of a deal.

I didnt particularly try to lose it but when opportunity presented i capitalised as i was older and knew the deal better.

You need to make an opportunity but not necessarily chase after it

This, I hit rock bottom in high school 11 years ago. Friendless, khv, depressed, terrible grades so couldn’t get in to any college, no work experience, chubby and out of shape, addicted to video games, no social skills/loner. Made small changes at first, got burned out from vidya so I quit and sold my gaming pc, started lifting diligently, started actually studying and learning a useful skill (CS major). I really turned things around, still a late bloomer but I got a gf at 25 and am a homeowner, have over half a million net worth, making 300k, and been with 5 women so far at 29. I had ups and downs along the way but my graph has been trending upward since HS

funny enough, that is kind of true. but when you watch videos about successful people. it's just NPC garbage flying out of their mouths. they have no idea why they are successful. they were clearly either lucky, had a propensity for a subject with nigh autism, or they were a lynchpin, not everyone has these features. I'm not excusing someone's lack of ambition or laziness. But there are factors to success that aren't very sexy compared to parroting motivational NPC diatribes online.
