Dear GYE family,

you may have noticed that in order to improve the readability of our newsletters, we now direct you to our website to read the full-length articles instead of publishing an article in the body of the email. We realize, however, that some of our readers have made a choice not to have any interent on their electronic devices, and, as the result, they're unable to access our website. 

If you're one of these people, do not despair! You can download the GYE app and gain access to our site thru it without being exposed to the rest of the world wide web. Or, you can email us and we will be happy to email you back to copy of an article you want to read. Please make sure you include the issue number and article title with your request.

Best wishes for contniued sobriety,

Mottel.

Please check out the full guide to beating porn addiction in this and upcoming issues (For the first in the series, please refer to issue #1436). The creators of the infographic have taken each of the 25 strategies and provided clear practical actions to take in detail:

Write Down Your Goals And Create A Plan Of Action

Robust and powerful evidence shows that writing down your aims and goals, with clear steps for how to achieve them, gives your brain a framework and focus.

This is one of the most powerful actions you can take.

A Harvard MBA study of graduates found those who wrote down their goals and a plan of action were twice as successful than those who didn’t write down any goals.

The sense of achievement when you tick off each action point will increase your motivation and keep you on track.

Don’t be vague and be specific. Don’t write: I will give up porn. But say exactly what you will do: I will block my internet access for three hours today. I will go for a run. I will spend 30 minutes contacting friends to meet up so I am out of the house when I would normally view porn.

Just by writing a list you’ll begin to feel in control.
