The most important is to be happy. So I do not agree at all. If soembody feels good he offen can give good advice how to enjoy the life. And paradoxically if you achive to more or you are to wise or inteligent you can see no sense more than mediocre person
Semen retention is the one of the most important parts of self improvement for sure, I remember every time I relapsed it made me worse and worse but it hit harder especially on self improvement. Just don't obsess about getting to the days, make sure you distract yourself from it, by being busy doing productive stuff, like working out or working on your goals or something. Then days will pass by and you won't even realise. It's all in the mind brahs, you got this, [Adonis = you!]
Hey, Is it okay to have sex? Like, I didn't jackoff for a month and I won't do it, but I need a woman or i'll go crazy lol Like, honestly there was times when I fucked prostitutes instead of jacking off, not sure if semen HAS to be retained?
Makes sense because sex is the highest form of pleasure after food and its easier to watch porn nowadays then to eat food its the worst instant gratification habit out there in the same category as hard drugs
This relates to me heavily when I started working out. Me and my dad did a 100-day at home challenge of puships sit ups and planks. I felt like trash and gave up around day 60. 1 year later, I do the same thing, but I don't count the days. I just do it and have fun. After about t months, I started going to the gym, I kept that mindset, and now the gym is always the highlight of my day.
I swear Hamza feels like a best friend from the future, who traveled back in time to give you honest answers for improving so that you may become a better you in the future.
7:30 don't get busy for the sake of being busy, focus your energy on what matters, and naturally you're busying yourself to become the best version, being 1 percent better than you was yesterday. 👽🖤
agree, just take a “TINY” steps for everyday to become better, dont force yourself bcs its unnatural things for you, or you going end up burn out and giving up for what you want to be
IceColdJT's video on NoFap was one of the most motivating videos for me, he says something similar to what you say at around 4:00 "stop thinking about the day count, and focus entirely on making the days count." Still wanting a collab between you two one day
I relapsed on day 98 today and the depression has started kicking in . I did turn into a happy child during my no fap . One thing I learned today is that there's no point of counting the days
If you relapse once in a big big while you won't feel depressed you will actually feel even more tougher and your progress won't demolished. You will only feel depressed if you're the beta male who relapses too much and just see yourself as the guy who just simply doesn't jack off and don't focus on the day count and you will get higher streaks if you don't focus on the day count just stay busy on the good things. Don't worry I've been through the same things to. Good things will happen to you when you do the right things stay strong 💪
As an ex-nofap monkey (after this video), I appreciate this alot. It had been one of my biggest insecurities that I was basically a slave to my urges but after watching this video something clicked. I had a 6 month streak before a year and a half ago and I've felt horrible ever since because I haven't been able to pull it off again, I see now that even though those 6 months were pretty enjoyable, it ended up making my life so much worse in the long run. And funny enough the streak started because I gave up on nofap and renovated my room, which made me super busy. Detaching hornyness from action is the best advice I've ever heard and I'm going to focus on that instead of "getting a better streak". Thank you Hamza, you just helped me overcome my biggest obstacle in like 16 minutes.
The sexual energy you retain PAIRED WITH you no longer looking at porn or anything sexual (like onlyfans hoes on your instagram feed) takes the instant gratification of sex off your mind AND that energy gets channeled into your mission...which if you keep working towards, will eventually get you better women than any of the garbage we'd watch on porn sites.
WWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't be a slave to your urges (obviously it's easier to say in theory, but harder in practically, imo it's only hard if you make it hard 👽😳😩🥴 Detatch horniness from action. 👽😌

Really really nice video, i was a "jeffrey" 1 year ago. But i got my 21year old ass up, got myself some therapy last year against my depression that were severe 3 years ago. Started getting a nice morning routine 2months ago, started reading books again in january, stopped drinking so much alcohol and started drinking 3litres of water everyday and stopped completely with smoking weed. And i found your yt-channel ~1week ago and it does help me getting more healtier, motivated and overall it helps me a little with improving myself. I do really have to thank you that you are making these videos.
As a 17 year old who has fapped almost every day since I was 12…. Your videos have helped me so much Hamza. Yours among others have helped me immensely with self-improvement, I’ve been bulking and working out for a few weeks now, I’m starting to read again, and now I’m ridding myself of my fap/porn addiction that has burdened me. I’ve always been the guy who gets good grades, has good relationships with my teachers and my elders, but have always struggled with connecting with people my age. On days or weeks where I haven’t fapped it helps a lot with how I connect with people my age more, and puts my focus on things that matter much more. Wish me luck on this journey - I think my high school years will have been long gone by the time I reach the peak of my self-improvement, but I will enjoy them as best as I can for now. The best is yet to come.
GL mate!! I am 16 and I am also trying to self-improve. I honestly hate reading but I must do it since its included in four pillars of self-improvement and the fact that it gives us knowledge. P.S Meditation does helps me overcome my anxiety.
every single time you make a video it feels like you know exactly what i want to do, what i want to be in my life. Hamza, i swear to god today the older me is no more. I was trying to be consistent on NoFap and was failing miserably and turning worst day by day, now i am a man that simply don't do this self harming activity. Thanks hamza love from India. Maybe one day i'll get to meet you in person and thank you from bottom of my heart.
Hey Hamza, I’m a 16 year old from America and your videos have changed my life for the better in ways that I can’t even fully recognize yet. Thank you.
It took me till age of 38 to understand that fapping is an addiction. Seeing all you young guys dealing with nofap makes me feel ashamed. But i think, better late than never to start the journey. I havent count the exact days im on it now but roughly 3 weeks now and i feel the confidence growing in my soul. Wish i new this early in my life.
No worries bro it’s never too late everyone living there separate lives, so many different ways of life and we all living and all dying one day , just keep your family close and loved ones and that’s the only important thingv
My father was a History, Geography, and Government teacher. He was very intelligent and knew a lot about a lot of different things. I even had the privilege of being his student for a year, he was objectively the best teacher I've ever had and 99% of his ex-students felt the same. No disrespect to my own father, I loved him a lot, but we grew up broke AF.
Did you grow up with him? My father is a super masculine man but I almost never saw him growing up. I started spending time with him consistently 3 years ago when I moved in with him.
Not everything is about monetary wealth, knowledge and physical health are amazing as well, its why i started my nofap journey, which ive posted on my channel!
I treat abstinence (or’NoFap’ whatever you call it) like going to the gym mentally. It’s not about going every damn day, it’s about building consistency over time.
It’s crazy. I’ve relapsed multiple times. I was obsessed. A few days ago (can’t remember when I actually stopped because I’m not tracking) I told myself I’m not a fapper anymore. I need mental clarity. I need my self esteem back. Your video really hits, making me realize the last relapse will be the last for me, not because I’m obsessed, but because that’s who I am now. Thank you for the reinforcement from this video
That's definitely an important benefit. I would say that your increased motivation due to the recovery of your brain's reward system is just as important. Dopamine really plays a huge role in how motivated you are. I definitely agree about the streak part. You shouldn't feel bad about relapsing, see it as a process. Relapses are part of the process. The beginning is the most difficult period, but after some time you'll forget your streak because you're not even thinking about fapping anymore. I would advise any man to do nofap (even though the name may sound cringe). It'll accelerate your self-improvement journey! 👑💪
Dude you have no idea how incredible these words coming out from you are. I've been struggling for years with trying to quit fapping. I'm 28 now and I only reached this realization of yours a few weeks ago! If I only had someone to talk these words into my head throughout all those past years. You have my respect 💪
That’s what I’m doing to keep myself away from that, is keeping myself busy during the day, I sometimes watch tv series that I really enjoy and missed on seeing. And before bed when it’s most temptation I read the Bible, or any book will do. As for the meditation I think about this line “be ready for the temptation before it comes to you.”
This is probably one of the most important videos someone in the early days of their self improvement journey. Don’t beat yourself up when on your off days! That does way more harm than good!
I still have a lot to work on, I still get depressed despite being 50 days into Semen Retention. I am working out and eating healthy. Great job to everyone else here though that's working on SR!
Depression gets thrown around too easily. We all have shit days but try your best to not throw around depression too easily. It’s okay to have shit days 👌🏼
im 12, and the fact that people were fapping for years while i found hamza and self-improvement in first year of letting my life fall apart makes me feel like not everything is lost, that i have potential
Hamza is really one of the very very few self help creators for young men that doesn't come across as toxic.He focuses about improving youself for jourself. Most other self help channels fokus on the shallow parts like "getting girls" and being perceived as the "aplha male" of the group. Self help shouldn't be a way to change how people see you. It should be a way to change how you see yourself.
This is so on point. I remember trying to maintain streaks for NoFap and would relapse eventually and feel bad. But when I was actually busy with my work and life I even forgot about fapping and couldn't remember the last time I did it. The busy time was definitely more uncomfortable but it was much more satisfying than staying in my comfort zone.
I’m grateful to have found your channel cuz I’ve never had that great of a father figure. My father never was a high quality man. For the last eight years I’ve watched my parents love fall apart. They’ve been absolutely miserable for years so having you as guidance really helps when a divorce is right around the corner. Thanks to you I’m becoming a lot more confident in myself and more ambitious. I’ll save you the whole essay but thanks a lot for the solid advice and guidance in these hard times.
What Hamza is talking about I heard this from a youtuber the name of Pinnacle of a Man he also mentioned the golden point.I remember counting my days on "NO Fap" and thinking of not releasing basically 24/7 and...of coarse I relapsed. Then I heard of the golden point. Don't be on "NO Fap" just marinate into your brain you simply do not fap. Make this apart of your life. I'm on day *I don't count* and I am doing just fine. I just don't stress over it anymore. I grab my pickaxe and mine and mine what I want in life. *You guys got this* !🏋♂️🧘🌠💯💫
Truth. The moment I stopped attaching some sort of challenge or timeline goal to it, things began to get easier. Years spent feeling guilt and shame for not hitting "x day". I didn't focus on the progress I've made but rather the "timeline benefit" that I was missing out on.
Thank you for debunking these myths about NoFap Hamza,this video overwhelmed me with relief. You are playing a substantial part in my self improvement journey.♥
I agree. Most of the major benefits from nofap aid your mindset towards life. Your perspective, attitude and daily decisions begin to change thereby creating a new character, self image.
It really messes up your mind, I was a heavy porn addict, for like 25 years, I am 38 now, and don't even think about it anymore, it destroyed myself image, made me insecure, low self esteem, it even played a big part in the breakdown of my marriage, luckily I am still with my wife, I am on my self improvement journey. Ever since I started no fap, my gains in the gym has improved, I have more energy, and overall I feel so much better.
I love that you did this as a duo. Fapping is such a private thing that a lot of people feel ashamed about, so seeing both of you sharing your thoughts while sitting next to each other makes it seem less taboo.
Been watching quite some videos about nofap and this is clearly the one that I will suggest to other people. Honest no-BS advice. It really felt like they are all tryng to "sell" some miracles that happen at day X and day Y while it's a way of life. Not being like the immense majority of mediocre men out there.
The honesty you discuss right in the middle is much appreciated. I’m works for everything. I stopped drinking a few months ago and it’s parallel. Changing your character and disassociating with the act. “I just don’t do it. I’m the only he kind of person who _____”
I actually really agree with him, I've been on and off no fap for a few years and the longest streak I got which was nearly a year (290 days) was when my identity was just of a person who doesn't fap. It was also a lot easier when you have that mental barrier of not getting anywhere close to it.
Seriously one of the most inspirational men I’ve ever seen on RUclips. They both say the same advice that I’ve seen from people such as Jordan Peterson where if u want to get rid of an addiction, get busy. It is the simplest way to put it in my opinion, great editing as well.
Saying I’m gonna quit forever seemed unrealistic with the mindset I was in. Counting the days helps until you get to a point where you see you don’t need it anymore.
The advice on being busy is GOLDENNNN it's the no. 1 thing that's helped. When I'm busy I don't even think about it 😂.I'm busy with either school, the gym, or making tracks. It's much more difficult once it becomes summer and you lose/have to change that schedule school gives you
I come to this video after trying no fap for months of defeat and i have failed but i will get back and try again. boys, these are tough times and we must stay strong. Focus on bettering yourself by filling up your days with good habits, and i wish all men good luck!
Very good points you both make here. People see no fap as a challenge in life but it should be seen as a lifestyle change. There should not be a limit or duration of this period if you want to improve your life it has to be the lifestyle changes, not temporary ones you make or indulge in. Everyone can benefit and change their life. Wish yall the best 🦍🖤
been hating my self image for years (tall, lanky) recently started working out at home, i feel amazing. studying harder for real estate and im trying to not fap as much as well. your videos and other(mainly workout stuff) is pushing me further than i thought i could go. ill still play video games but thats just because i enjoy them, i time myself so i dont do it too much. anyway i just wanted to say to anyone, keep at it. its all in the mind, youre strong, you can do it. love u brothers
Hey I just relapsed only two times in a month and I am proud of my progress. Thanks to you two I woke up and wanted to get out of this never ending cycle of regret
Hamza thank you so much for not primary going for views, clicks, watchtime rate. You help us so much, thousand of boys, with qualitative videos which don't kick in like the other ADHS RUclips videos
I started watching your vids maybe like 2-3 months ago and you changed mylife and mindset so much.I quited all of the bad habits(just not fapping,im trying as much as i can).I delete social medias,started miditating,im more in nature.Thank you so muchhhhh.
This actually makes a lot of sense since I have been attempting to do No Nut November for a long time like I knew it was dumb and had no affect because you will just start again. With this guide and help I think I will finally stop and actually try to stop it forever bit by bit instead of immediately telling myself to not do it ever again just by day 1 Thanks a lot Hamza
15:45 very true. Growing up, I was always told to “be the bigger person” and walk away when I was being bullied. I built a lot of resentment in myself because I applied their advice to everyday situations. When I started to ignore their advice, that’s when I started to see the truth and how to properly address situations. I’m 22 and I still have a lot of resentment towards the past, but I’m working on myself every day to be better.
As someone who is on day 53 as of writing this, I can say semen retention is easily one of the most beneficial journeys a man needs in order to achieve his peak potential. Biggest Piece of advice for semen retention to get to higher days is to see it as a lifestyle change. If you see it as simply just a challenge to conquer, you will fail. You have to chnage something within yourself to despise anything that doesnt benefit you. Good luck men on your journeys!
The best times I had was when I was on semen retention. I was on a 7 month streak from July 2021 to February 2022 and during that time, I was so focused on my grind and I saw my life improving in every way possible. I was much more confident in myself to the point where positive things were coming naturally. I was in the gym gaining pretty good muscle mass, getting good grades in my 4th year of college, and even attracting women effortlessly. Despite all of this, I got too comfortable and complacent which led me to get distracted and ultimately I relapsed. Not only did I relapse, but it was a really bad relapse to the point where I stopped going to the gym completely and started making excuses again like how I did years before. I resorted to alcohol for a bit and it almost screwed me up completely. With all this in mind, I would urge people to never look back at porn as it really does screw up peoples lives. The negative energy around it takes a toll on you mentally and spiritually to the point where you completely forget about yourself and your purpose to truly be better everyday. As said before, being complacent and comfortable can be a cause to why you relapse and I would try to prevent this at all cost. As of now, I am back on semen retention and looking forward to pushing harder in the gym than ever before and I’m also focused on going to law school as I am taking the LSAT in November and hoping to get the score I need. I urge everyone reading this to find something that not only keeps you busy, but also finding your passion that leads to your dreams and avoiding mediocrity as well. Much love and may all of your dreams come true 🙏🏽.
16 Years old here.This video was so eye opening as NoFap has absolutely never worked for me. I am a very ambitious kid, I have learned to earn my own money online and I am aware I did not reach my full potential just yet simply because I choose to fap instead of continuing my work, instead of working out, instead of doing anything productive. I do not practice any Jeffery activities, I haven't played video games for about 5 months now, I gave up junk food and coke + other sodas that were bad for my health and turned to water only. My one and only problem is fapping and not being able to give it up, so I will take this advice, the moment I heard "you're not on nofap, you are the guy who doesn't j@#k off" I grabbed my journal and straight up noted that down, will read it everyday and see how it will go. Thank you for trying to help us all young males, peace!
Trust its hard at first the urges are nuts when you first start i lasted a week. Then three. Then a month then three then back to back three before a relapse then 5 then I relapsed now i’m trying to get it back. Once you do it once it gets easier to resist the urges the next time it comes up.
You made your point!!! I don't drink alcohol, so whenever someone offers, I simply tell them that I don't and that I am certain that I will never drink it, and I could do the same with the nofap because I don't fap. This is the right frame of mind, bro. Thank you very much.
Thank you for saying this gents. It literally took me years to work through myself image with NoFap. Until I let go of it and moved on as life does then things changed. Keep at it lads
Self imagine is interesting. Myself, a skinny, white dude with a shit posture still lingers on my mind. As Sam says, it’s a work in progress. Booked a physio session to improve my posture, step in the right direction!
Don’t count the days, make the days count.
Idk how long I nofap but yeah make the days count
damn

@@AngelGarcia-oy3yj …pretty sure the “we” referred to his family as a whole.
@@AngelGarcia-oy3yj Yes. By "we" I am referring to the whole family. Both parents and siblings. Typical middle-class family
You should read Rich Dad Poor Dad, it will blow your mind.
Not everything is about monetary wealth, knowledge and physical health are amazing as well, its why i started my nofap journey, which ive posted on my channel!
I treat abstinence (or’NoFap’ whatever you call it) like going to the gym mentally. It’s not about going every damn day, it’s about building consistency over time.
Love this way of looking at it
It’s crazy. I’ve relapsed multiple times. I was obsessed. A few days ago (can’t remember when I actually stopped because I’m not tracking) I told myself I’m not a fapper anymore. I need mental clarity. I need my self esteem back. Your video really hits, making me realize the last relapse will be the last for me, not because I’m obsessed, but because that’s who I am now.
Thank you for the reinforcement from this video
Just a couple shirtless dudes talking about not masturbating… but for real love the message here. Very helpful
That's definitely an important benefit. I would say that your increased motivation due to the recovery of your brain's reward system is just as important. Dopamine really plays a huge role in how motivated you are. I definitely agree about the streak part. You shouldn't feel bad about relapsing, see it as a process. Relapses are part of the process. The beginning is the most difficult period, but after some time you'll forget your streak because you're not even thinking about fapping anymore. I would advise any man to do nofap (even though the name may sound cringe). It'll accelerate your self-improvement journey! 👑💪
It is not cringe Bro
Cap, fapping is good for you, and have fun with all that tension built up when meeting a girl. You will release in 2 sec..
Dude you have no idea how incredible these words coming out from you are. I've been struggling for years with trying to quit fapping. I'm 28 now and I only reached this realization of yours a few weeks ago!
If I only had someone to talk these words into my head throughout all those past years.
You have my respect 💪
That’s what I’m doing to keep myself away from that, is keeping myself busy during the day, I sometimes watch tv series that I really enjoy and missed on seeing. And before bed when it’s most temptation I read the Bible, or any book will do. As for the meditation I think about this line “be ready for the temptation before it comes to you.”
This is probably one of the most important videos someone in the early days of their self improvement journey. Don’t beat yourself up when on your off days! That does way more harm than good!
I still have a lot to work on, I still get depressed despite being 50 days into Semen Retention. I am working out and eating healthy. Great job to everyone else here though that's working on SR!
Depression gets thrown around too easily. We all have shit days but try your best to not throw around depression too easily. It’s okay to have shit days 👌🏼
im 12, and the fact that people were fapping for years while i found hamza and self-improvement in first year of letting my life fall apart makes me feel like not everything is lost, that i have potential
I feel like Hamza is the only guy on this platform that understands NoFap
Hamza is really one of the very very few self help creators for young men that doesn't come across as toxic.He focuses about improving youself for jourself. Most other self help channels fokus on the shallow parts like "getting girls" and being perceived as the "aplha male" of the group. Self help shouldn't be a way to change how people see you. It should be a way to change how you see yourself.
and i just want to say i appreciate the channel for it
This is so on point. I remember trying to maintain streaks for NoFap and would relapse eventually and feel bad. But when I was actually busy with my work and life I even forgot about fapping and couldn't remember the last time I did it. The busy time was definitely more uncomfortable but it was much more satisfying than staying in my comfort zone.
I’m grateful to have found your channel cuz I’ve never had that great of a father figure. My father never was a high quality man. For the last eight years I’ve watched my parents love fall apart. They’ve been absolutely miserable for years so having you as guidance really helps when a divorce is right around the corner. Thanks to you I’m becoming a lot more confident in myself and more ambitious. I’ll save you the whole essay but thanks a lot for the solid advice and guidance in these hard times.
Stay strong and keep grinding brother it will get better 💪💯
Keep up the hard work, and never stay from your path of success. Never give up!
My parents divorced and I am with my mom and new father . In India . Don't know what to do in life.
Bro just Keep going
Stay optimistic - You deserve success
Hamza, this is the best thumbnail ive seen far!! Keep up the good work!!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Also W cameo
Thanks guys, I needed this. Cheers
What Hamza is talking about I heard this from a youtuber the name of Pinnacle of a Man he also mentioned the golden point.I remember counting my days on "NO Fap" and thinking of not releasing basically 24/7 and...of coarse I relapsed. Then I heard of the golden point. Don't be on "NO Fap" just marinate into your brain you simply do not fap. Make this apart of your life. I'm on day *I don't count* and I am doing just fine. I just don't stress over it anymore. I grab my pickaxe and mine and mine what I want in life. *You guys got this* !🏋♂️🧘🌠💯💫
Truth. The moment I stopped attaching some sort of challenge or timeline goal to it, things began to get easier. Years spent feeling guilt and shame for not hitting "x day". I didn't focus on the progress I've made but rather the "timeline benefit" that I was missing out on.
Nofap a game changer fr
7:39 the busy one is true that I found out myself. If you are busy then you won't think about it and you won't feel urges.
NoFap increases your discipline, that's the main benefit I'd say.
but it also forces you to clap cheeks if you wanna get a nut off
Thats is very true
100% agreed with everything you said. My mind subconsciously started doing all the things you said here some time ago
Thank you for debunking these myths about NoFap Hamza,this video overwhelmed me with relief. You are playing a substantial part in my self improvement journey.♥
I agree. Most of the major benefits from nofap aid your mindset towards life. Your perspective, attitude and daily decisions begin to change thereby creating a new character, self image.
It really messes up your mind, I was a heavy porn addict, for like 25 years, I am 38 now, and don't even think about it anymore, it destroyed myself image, made me insecure, low self esteem, it even played a big part in the breakdown of my marriage, luckily I am still with my wife, I am on my self improvement journey. Ever since I started no fap, my gains in the gym has improved, I have more energy, and overall I feel so much better.
This is actually good advice and I think it applies to trying to quit every bad habit.
I will apply this to my bad sleep.
I love that you did this as a duo. Fapping is such a private thing that a lot of people feel ashamed about, so seeing both of you sharing your thoughts while sitting next to each other makes it seem less taboo.
“You can’t take advise from people who are fine living in mediocrity”
Just deep that!!
Been watching quite some videos about nofap and this is clearly the one that I will suggest to other people. Honest no-BS advice. It really felt like they are all tryng to "sell" some miracles that happen at day X and day Y while it's a way of life. Not being like the immense majority of mediocre men out there.
This video has tied up/ enlightened pretty much everything I've tried to learn about self improvement since I started my "self-improvement journey"
Top content on NoFap. Loving this one, NEVER count the days.
"don't count the days, make the days count" - soldier of Allah 👽😌
The honesty you discuss right in the middle is much appreciated. I’m works for everything. I stopped drinking a few months ago and it’s parallel. Changing your character and disassociating with the act. “I just don’t do it. I’m the only he kind of person who _____”
I needed this video; I was falling into the same trap 😭 I'm reading Atomic Habits and your advice makes a lot more sense.
I thought this was gonna be like every other nofap video, but you actually make a lot of pretty good points which most people don't talk about
I actually really agree with him, I've been on and off no fap for a few years and the longest streak I got which was nearly a year (290 days) was when my identity was just of a person who doesn't fap.
It was also a lot easier when you have that mental barrier of not getting anywhere close to it.
Yo Hamza, just wanna say thanks bro. For being an honest positive influence man. Shits hard to find these days. Keep up the good work bro
We need to do this boys. There is no other choice
I'm so glad I found your channel and this video Hamza , god bless u
Seriously one of the most inspirational men I’ve ever seen on RUclips. They both say the same advice that I’ve seen from people such as Jordan Peterson where if u want to get rid of an addiction, get busy. It is the simplest way to put it in my opinion, great editing as well.
Saying I’m gonna quit forever seemed unrealistic with the mindset I was in. Counting the days helps until you get to a point where you see you don’t need it anymore.
Thank you so much Hamza i needed this
Love this man! So genuine
The advice on being busy is GOLDENNNN it's the no. 1 thing that's helped. When I'm busy I don't even think about it 😂.I'm busy with either school, the gym, or making tracks. It's much more difficult once it becomes summer and you lose/have to change that schedule school gives you
I come to this video after trying no fap for months of defeat and i have failed but i will get back and try again. boys, these are tough times and we must stay strong. Focus on bettering yourself by filling up your days with good habits, and i wish all men good luck!
Very good points you both make here. People see no fap as a challenge in life but it should be seen as a lifestyle change. There should not be a limit or duration of this period if you want to improve your life it has to be the lifestyle changes, not temporary ones you make or indulge in. Everyone can benefit and change their life. Wish yall the best 🦍🖤
Those videos with the timeline are great. People with major problems need something that basic.
been hating my self image for years (tall, lanky) recently started working out at home, i feel amazing. studying harder for real estate and im trying to not fap as much as well.
your videos and other(mainly workout stuff) is pushing me further than i thought i could go. ill still play video games but thats just because i enjoy them, i time myself so i dont do it too much. anyway i just wanted to say to anyone, keep at it. its all in the mind, youre strong, you can do it. love u brothers
Same bro, good job.
what's your routine? i wanna get back into working out but im not keen on going to the gym as I don't have the time/money.
What's wrong with being tall 😭
@@Malmorious Tall and lanky is a bad look
Hey I just relapsed only two times in a month and I am proud of my progress. Thanks to you two I woke up and wanted to get out of this never ending cycle of regret
The way sam laughed sent chills down to my bones. That was a laugh of a King!!
shut it ya fucking nerd
I actually started at 13 am actually 14 now almost 15 and am alr trying new thing like 1/7 and your video prove me that I should do less then that
Hamza thank you so much for not primary going for views, clicks, watchtime rate. You help us so much, thousand of boys, with qualitative videos which don't kick in like the other ADHS RUclips videos
I started watching your vids maybe like 2-3 months ago and you changed mylife and mindset so much.I quited all of the bad habits(just not fapping,im trying as much as i can).I delete social medias,started miditating,im more in nature.Thank you so muchhhhh.
I just lost my 33 days streak and feel bad for it. but this video gave me the motivation to start all over again
all of this is so true, Especially not taking it too seriously, seriously!
I love Hamza being amazed by the candle
This is honestly life changing video for me Thank you
Bruh the first 15 seconds had me shook, hearing some other than hamza on his channel had the same effect on me as someone breaking into my house
Thanks bro hamza. This isthe best nofap video I’ve ever seen.
0:31 Exodus 20:7: “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
This is brilliant advice on attempting any large change. Wonderful video.
This actually makes a lot of sense since I have been attempting to do No Nut November for a long time like I knew it was dumb and had no affect because you will just start again. With this guide and help I think I will finally stop and actually try to stop it forever bit by bit instead of immediately telling myself to not do it ever again just by day 1 Thanks a lot Hamza
15:45 very true. Growing up, I was always told to “be the bigger person” and walk away when I was being bullied. I built a lot of resentment in myself because I applied their advice to everyday situations. When I started to ignore their advice, that’s when I started to see the truth and how to properly address situations. I’m 22 and I still have a lot of resentment towards the past, but I’m working on myself every day to be better.
As someone who is on day 53 as of writing this, I can say semen retention is easily one of the most beneficial journeys a man needs in order to achieve his peak potential.
Biggest Piece of advice for semen retention to get to higher days is to see it as a lifestyle change. If you see it as simply just a challenge to conquer, you will fail. You have to chnage something within yourself to despise anything that doesnt benefit you. Good luck men on your journeys!
stop putting the days man
Great video man
I started 3 days ago. So far not so bad im trying my best to stick to it for life
you got it brother. put on porn blockers and delete porn positive social media like reddit and twitter. limit your access to porn as much as possible.
@@EinEgomane2 ok 👍 ill do that
Thx for the advice
@@NovaHendrixx will do 👍 thx for the advice
This was so helpful.
Thank u bro.

Glad I found your channel at 18,I'm going to live with it and I'll make it
The best times I had was when I was on semen retention. I was on a 7 month streak from July 2021 to February 2022 and during that time, I was so focused on my grind and I saw my life improving in every way possible. I was much more confident in myself to the point where positive things were coming naturally. I was in the gym gaining pretty good muscle mass, getting good grades in my 4th year of college, and even attracting women effortlessly. Despite all of this, I got too comfortable and complacent which led me to get distracted and ultimately I relapsed. Not only did I relapse, but it was a really bad relapse to the point where I stopped going to the gym completely and started making excuses again like how I did years before. I resorted to alcohol for a bit and it almost screwed me up completely. With all this in mind, I would urge people to never look back at porn as it really does screw up peoples lives. The negative energy around it takes a toll on you mentally and spiritually to the point where you completely forget about yourself and your purpose to truly be better everyday. As said before, being complacent and comfortable can be a cause to why you relapse and I would try to prevent this at all cost. As of now, I am back on semen retention and looking forward to pushing harder in the gym than ever before and I’m also focused on going to law school as I am taking the LSAT in November and hoping to get the score I need. I urge everyone reading this to find something that not only keeps you busy, but also finding your passion that leads to your dreams and avoiding mediocrity as well. Much love and may all of your dreams come true 🙏🏽.
I hope ur exam went well and thanks for sharing your experience it's really helpful ❤️🤝
I've seen a lot of videos about no fap, but this is really great advice. it`s more about changing a habit and experiencing how this is changing you.
3 gigachads look at each other for 16 minutes
16 Years old here.This video was so eye opening as NoFap has absolutely never worked for me. I am a very ambitious kid, I have learned to earn my own money online and I am aware I did not reach my full potential just yet simply because I choose to fap instead of continuing my work, instead of working out, instead of doing anything productive.
I do not practice any Jeffery activities, I haven't played video games for about 5 months now, I gave up junk food and coke + other sodas that were bad for my health and turned to water only. My one and only problem is fapping and not being able to give it up, so I will take this advice, the moment I heard "you're not on nofap, you are the guy who doesn't j@#k off" I grabbed my journal and straight up noted that down, will read it everyday and see how it will go.
Thank you for trying to help us all young males, peace!
I’m 15 and I plan to follow in your footsteps bro all of us no matter what age or size will make it if we keep it up. Love you guys
in what way are you making money?
hey chris what way
Trust its hard at first the urges are nuts when you first start i lasted a week. Then three. Then a month then three then back to back three before a relapse then 5 then I relapsed now i’m trying to get it back. Once you do it once it gets easier to resist the urges the next time it comes up.
Thanks for this man, got it now. I'll try again 👊🏻
I've been going strong since the first day of November last year 💪
You made your point!!! I don't drink alcohol, so whenever someone offers, I simply tell them that I don't and that I am certain that I will never drink it, and I could do the same with the nofap because I don't fap. This is the right frame of mind, bro. Thank you very much.
Thank you for saying this gents. It literally took me years to work through myself image with NoFap. Until I let go of it and moved on as life does then things changed. Keep at it lads
Keep up great work❤
Self imagine is interesting. Myself, a skinny, white dude with a shit posture still lingers on my mind. As Sam says, it’s a work in progress. Booked a physio session to improve my posture, step in the right direction!
