Hi there, friends and brothers, fellow fighters of GYE! I have posted about this before, but now I fulfill a kaballah I made, thanks to IWLR and his thread about making a kabbalah for the High Holidays. And, when I wrote about this in the past I was quoting others, I had not yet done it myself. Whereas now I can tell you what I have seen happen to me when I tried it
I shared this idea with a dear friend a little while ago, that in order to realize the positive in watching our eyes, it would be helpful if we keep track of the wins, count them constantly. So I suggested he get himself a clicker counter and click it every time he is faced with a test and he looks away. He reached out a little while later that he bought it, and it literally changed the whole dynamics of his tests. Prompted by our friend IWLR's thread I bought myself a clicker counter. It cost me 2.59 on Amazon.
And, my friends, I must say, it's been years since I have been watching my eyes in the street this successfully. We might explain why it works many different ways. Maybe it's the being cognizant and on guard, maybe it's the positivity it engenders, making me feel like a winner, maybe it's because it becomes concrete, there's something to do to actualize the win, I'm really not sure what it is.
But the truth is that it really makes no difference. It works. I cannot explain how my car works either. But I know one thing. It works. (BH, for now, kain ayin hara).
I also know that not every idea works for everyone. But I'm sure there are many people for whom this will work wonders.
So I'd like to start a 'Clicker Clique'. All you have to do is buy one, keep it in your pocket, and click every time you look away when you are tested with shemiras einayim. And then come here and post as often as you can at how many clicks you are holding. Do you want to join?
