Episode notes

"What if slipping up doesn't actually put you back to square one, but it just teaches you so that when you come across this again?" "This only nothing mindset is what causes a lot of hate binging because you hate yourself for slipping up. Binging because you don't think you could do it," he says.

In today's episode we talk about all or nothing mindset. This is one of the most common things I see with my clients.

All or nothing mindset looks like, “I already messed up today, so I am not going to try for the rest of the day”, “I can’t start until i’m 100% sure I can do this”, and by counting progress as number of days without pornography instead of counting progress as number of urges processed.

In reality, quitting pornography is like learning any new skill. Failure does not keep us from quitting, it teaches us and helps us to become stronger as long as we learn from it.
