When I started to celebrate every victory I started to realize that I could overcome this! I think that is this same concept of lessening the challenge. 

When I came to GYE I thought it was an (almost) impossible thing to break free. Ironically, the more I was able to convince myself how possible it is to break free the more I broke free. 

Breaking free is really attainable!!! Everyone can break free and it just takes a little bit of effort every day!!! Every second you are clean is worth more than you can imagine!! 


I could not have said this better. Mega Dittos!

If my battle/journey could be public, I would frame your post and hang it in my office..

Day 18 - Chai!

So I had a tough day, but BH I have a good partner and we came up with a game plan. Some exercise and finding a way to be productive helped me get through the day. 

 During the process, I thought of a vordt. I always wondered why Yaakov fought with the saar shel esav the whole night, and then magically in the morning when the saar shel esav had to leave then Yaakov was victorious. Why did the fight take the whole night, and what magically happened in the morning that it ended. So we know Rashi explains that in the morning malachim have to go say shira and that is why the saar shel esav wanted to leave. However that doesn't explain why until then Yaakov couldn't beat him and only then he was able to. 

I thought that maybe pshat is the idea that gets thrown around GYE alot. Distracting and delaying is a great tactic against the yetzer hara! We know the saar shel esav also represents the yetzer hara, and maybe that is the lesson we are meant to learn. They fought until Alos Hashachar, because Yaakov understood that you need to just fight until the yetzer hara leaves. Stay strong and wait until the yetzer hara is gone, and right when it needs to leave and you no longer are tied to it's shackles, then you can tell the yetzer hara who is the real boss! Who really won the fight! 

Don't try and take the yetzer hara head on, because you will lose. Be like Yaakov and wait. Learn some Torah, be productive, and then when the yetzer hara is gone celebrate your victory!

I appreciate the kind words!

I am on 33 so only one more week to my initial goal of 40 days...

Although I am only at 33 days, I feel stronger than before I fell on my 272 streak and maybe even my 362 streak....Knowing that I will continue to get back and fight for my shmiras habris gives me comfort and helps me realize that I don't need the shmutz! 

It doesn't make it easy, but it makes it more manageable.

Congratulations on reaching your goal!

To many more clean days!

One who has given up hope is without a G‑d.

One who sees hope in each day is already free

Hello everyone, I have started 90 days around Kislev 20 , but this week I have relapsed. I had about 35-40 days left.  I would appreciate some tips on how you motivate yourself. I had the yetzer hara overcome me, fogging my brain completely, I was weak and I broke. This time I'm going the full 90. Glad to be here.
