Hey guys !
I nearly acted out the past two nights. But I didnt.
Which Im very happy about.
Anyhow. So im on holiday at the moment. And I only start university again in February.
So whats great for me about holiday is that I dont need to stress about work. And therefore I would love it if I didnt act out for the whole holiday, which is so possible !
And that will be pg three months clean. I would love that.
So Im going to take it one day at a time.
And keep breathing.
Be in Touch !!!

dms1234

Heyyyyyyyyy

I be stressin and I be guessin that what I'm doing now is gonna wreck me. Please una, please, please una. Help me outa this rut or else the door is gonna shut.

BH for skeptical, he's helping me put on spectacles. He told me a great tip so I don't gotta sip that never endlng stress to get me out of this mess.

All I gotta do to reveal this stress mask is to just focus on one task. That's right just one task. One task! Say it with me: "one task"

ONE TASK AT A TIME!

I wrote this letter to my self on Friday morning:

dms1234

Dear Daniel:

I know what you are thinking! You hate yourself! You are in eaither one of two situations: you are procrastinating right now or you are heavily stressed cause of a fast approaching deadline. It could even be both.

You, sir, need to keep a few things in mind.

You have really high expectations of yourself! You want to be completely stress free and 2 weeks ahead of the game. Sorry to break your bubble, but that is way to high of an expectation. In fact, you have to completely lower your expectations to almost nothing. You are way to hard on yourself. Give yourself a break! There is only so much you can do.

Learn one day at a time: All of this stuff you gotta do will not be completed right away. It's a process.
You know what that means? One day you do one task, the next day you do 20 minutes of work, the next day you sit on it some more. You can't just do work. It takes time. Remember you probably have more time than you think to complete this.

Relax, take a deep breath:You probably won't get much work done, at least quality work, when you are so uptight. Take a few of them! Yes, those nice long breaths. Maybe, even go on a run!

Don't neglect your whole life for this one project: You may think it's the most important thing in life right now, but thank God you have a lot of special things in your life including a family, other projects, learning and much more

Don't forget God! He loves and cares for you. He is even helping you!!! So shout out a prayer! In reality, all results are up to Him, we just have to try and do whatever we can do. We must always accept that whatever happens is for the best. This means, and sorry to break it you, that we are not in control of what happens. We just gotta have a positive, persistent attitude and keep looking up to our Tatty in Heaven.

Life is good! take a deep breath and smile!

Its funny how easy i forget:

1: I don't need lust and 2 it kills me.

1. I really don't need lust. It doesn't help me. It doesn't relieve my stress or my loneliness or any other problem. I don't "need" it. I don't need it to live. I can live without it. It used to be so pressing for me to have it in order for me to survive, but i have realized, with the help of living ACTUAL life, that life is better without it.

2. Also, any sip of lust unscrews my head off. I go bonkers. I cant concentrate on anything else in life. It totally consumes me and my thinking. It turns my entire life inward, into just thinking. Life isn't about doing anymore, its about fantasizing and dreaming. Then i slowly die, a painful death while I am a live: I become the living dead: a walking zombie.

I gotta remember these 2 revelations. This week i lusted after 2 girls i know and lusted both of them hard.

I don't need lust and it will kill me.

Its so funny how SE (Shmiras Eiyanim) gets blown to the waste side. Its like i just forget its wrong. Sometimes i do remember and struggle and even still look! I am talking about on the street here. I have to remember that this isn't something i should be doing. Its damaging for me.

Yes, the girls are attractive and I do enjoy looking at them. Hashem has made woman very attractive. Its hard not to look as they are so attractive. But i cant look. Its not good for me. Its suicide. Its logical to me that i should save my eyes for my wife and I can do it. One girl at a time! I don't need to look that this one girl! I will live. Its ok. Kol b'seder! My life will go on fine if i don't look at her. I don't need her!

Deep breath, dms1234, deep breath!

Dear GYE:

I am addicted to GYE! YES I said it! Feels good.

I go on GYE a lot and i plan on taking a hiatus for the next two weeks so i can properly concentrate on school. I think this is also a good idea to prepare myself for Israel where i wont have much access to GYE.

It sucks yes, but its for the best.

So everybody take a DEEP BREATH, i not leaving GYE, just talking a leave of absence.

BYE! See you in about 2 weeks!

I will still be chatting with fellow gyers on gchat and email, so you can reach me there: dms1234ongye@gmail.com

Hi fellow GYEr's!

I finished school and so I am back on GYE! BH I had much help from Hashem and from Gyer's that I am connected to!

Life was hard, i had it with school but i got through it and now i go to Israel soon!

In those hard times we just gotta take a deep breath and ask Hashem for help! He cares for us and loves us and knows we can do it!

Its good to be back here but it was also nice to let go for a little bit. I was so attached to GYE and I'm not sure if it was helping me THAT much. I find that chatting and speaking with people is more useful for me! But i am back for the next little while before i depart to Israel!
