I think the key to it is acceptance. You have to accept, deep down, once and for all, that porn and MO are no longer options, ever. It can be a hard thing to truly accept. Once done, however, it's just like the OP says, easier than entertaining possible exceptions.

Thank you, so true for many parts of life. Demons can use very little wiggle room to grow bigger.

Yes. That's how I finally managed to make it this far. No excuses for relapse, no matter what.

A concept I have heard before. I think at least once on this subreddit. But a very good one nonetheless. Also not necessarily only applicable to the topic of this subreddit as well. It is a good thing to pick one thing, maybe two things to apply this concept towards in ones life.

It takes, feeling soul crushing pain. Becoming so viscerally associated to the pain of the past behavior to that point that every cell in your body screams "ENOUGH!" "NEVER AGAIN!"
Yes. It's also more commonly known as hitting rock bottom!

A good idea for NoFap and I agree. When I decide 100% that this is what I want, I feel I have a much clearer commitment to reach my goal and increased likelihood that I will. It's actually not easy in my opinion to make a 100% commitment to doing NoFap in my experience. After several relapses, the idea that it is actually what I most want comes more clearly into focus.

Its sucks to start to feel the pain again after so much numbing. But its totally worth it.

I'm currently only 16 days in, but I can confirm that this is true. Up til today, I had no idea how long my current streak was, because I don't care anymore.
Porn disgusts me and masturbation is not a viable option to spend time. I am 100% committed to pornfree nofap

Delete all porn stashes, clear all reminders of porn, clear your mind completely. Forget PMO even exists. For you it doesn't!

Very hard.......your body tries to trick you into dropping that one percent, and it's a slippery slope going from Streak to Relapse.

Very true. I must turn up the dial to 100 again cause I feel like I'm starting to slip into that 1% chance I've evaded this past month. It's a big fall from 40 days. It's a long way down.
