Pornography the Inner Ring

Play
“I believe that in all men’s lives at certain periods, and in many men’s lives at all periods between infancy and extreme old age, one of the most dominant elements is the desire to be inside the local Ring and the terror of being left outside…Of all the passions the passion for the Inner Ring is most skilful in making a man who is not yet a very bad man do very bad things.” -C.S. Lewis
Many get hooked in the pornography trap because they feel they want to know what is really going on.  They want to study it scientifically.  They want to be in the know or in the Inner Ring.  They want to know the secrets of others and in doing so feel a warped sense of power.  It is not wise to be interested in the secret acts of others.   However, it is wise to be concerned about your own secret behaviors.  Internal conflict arises when you are different on the inside than you are on the outside.  Becoming what is known as a “congruent person” means that you are the same on the outside as you are on the inside.  This is what the InnerGold system teaches.  Shakespeare put it best when he said, “This above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.”

Overcome Porn Addiction by Taking Action

Many have the desire to change but they find it difficult to see the progress.  Why?  It is because they fail to take the necessary action.  In order to create a new program for your brain to follow there must be action.  You can have the greatest future picture statement in the world and it won’t do you a bit of good if you allow yourself to fall prey to the grand fallacy that sabotages many addicts’ dreams.
THE GRAND FALLACY:
Six frogs sat on a lily pad.  One decided to jump off.  How many were left?
If you answered “five,” congratulations!  Your capacity for analytical reasoning is in good shape.  Unfortunately, that is not the correct answer.  The correct answer is “six.”
That’s right:  All six frogs are still sitting on that lily pad.  Why?  Because one only decided to jump off – he didn’t actually do any jumping.  – John Assaraf
“Seize the very first possible opportunity to act on every resolution you make, and on every emotional prompting you may experience in the direction of the habits you aspire to gain.  It is not in the moment of their forming but in the moment of their producing motor effects, that resolves and aspirations communicate the new “set” to the brain.” 
- William James
