I've met people both online and in person who are highly addicted to porn, lust, social media, and alcohol.
There are other things to be addicted to, but these four seem to be the top addictions flying around.
I've been addicted to some of those myself, and I know how hard you want to escape those addictions.
It feels like you're not in control of your decisions and your body, and it feels hopeless to even try to stop yourself at some point.
I'd like you to know that it is indeed possible. It's hard, your body will fight against you, but it is possible, and you can be victorious.
Remember that nobody will help you with these personal things. Nobody can change you, and I'd be sad if I see you give up on yourself.
You are stronger than you give yourself credit for. Look back at the moments in your life where you exceeded your own expectations, whether it's at school, or work, or working out.
When Michelangelo, the sculptor and artist, saw a piece of marble, he didn't see just a piece of marble. He saw what he could turn that marble into.
And I know that you see the same thing about your body and your life. You know what you want to turn yourself into.
And your body, your heart, your mind, they're all waiting for you to sculpt them into what you're meant to become.
People are going to talk bad about you and criticize you anyways, but on your funeral, after you die, people will immediately start thinking about what they wanna do with their own lives. On the same day you die, people will move on. The same people whose criticisms and whose opinions you are so worried about will forget you in a matter of hours.
So go for life. Start what you need to start, stop what you need to stop.
Go for it.
