The destructive power of isolation

The destructive power of isolation

If there's one thing that's more soul-suckingly terrible than anything else for someone who's struggling with self-control, it's isolation.

There are a few reasons why:

For one, when you're isolated you're in your own little bubble where no one really knows what's happening with you. There's no accountability, few social repercussions or people mirroring things back to you, and a total lack of accountability gives an addicted brain more "freedom" to just do whatever it wants regardless of the consequences.

Secondly, when you're isolated you're missing out on some of life's most important things.

You know, the kind of things that make life actually satisfying and worth living.

Connection with other people. Intimacy. Fun. Conversations. Friendships. New experiences and adventures.

... and when those things are missing? You're left with an isolation-sized hole in your lifestyle that leaves you feeling empty and unfulfilled. Which is painful enough on its own. But becomes even worse when you consider that if you're struggling with compulsive behaviors, there's a 98% chance that your brain is using those behaviors as coping mechanisms for discomfort and dissatisfaction.

So if you're feeling unfulfilled, isolated, and disconnected...

What is your brain going to want?

That's right, whatever vices it's picked as its poison of choice.

Then, ironically, indulging in those vices increases baseline levels of discomfort, furthering the tendency to isolate, be disconnected, and feel even more dissatisfied.

It's a vicious cycle.

One I was caught in for years.

And one that people often spend lifetimes caught in.

I don't want you to suffer the same way I did, and I certainly don't want you to wake up in old age and wonder what went wrong and why you didn't do anything sooner...

Which is why I've spent nearly 5 years of my life completely dedicated to helping men quit porn, masturbation, and their other digital vices so they can honor and BE the kind of husbands, fathers, and leaders that they know they're meant to be.

Let's break the inertia.

You don't have to stay in that cycle any longer.
