I started nofap a couple months ago, and that's how I ended up finding trp in the first place. Since then, monk mode has been my daily routine without me even realizing it. I would be lurking on trp and getting caught up in school. I read all the links on the sidebar, started lifting everyday, bought No More Mr. Nice guy and Rollo's book, and meditated regularly. The discipline needed to carry this out everyday has been a source of pride in me, however I noticed a flaw in the whole process. Many of the posts I began reading revolved around plates, LTRs, and topics for advanced red pillers. In my head it was logical that I should read these sort of posts because I had already read the basic foundational posts, but this whole time (2 and a half months) I haven't put even the smallest of practice into the fundamentals of game. It's like I'm analyzing the best way to swing a golf club, but never once taking to the range and teeing off. Becoming aware of a problem is only half the battle though, and so I'm making it a point to approach at least one girl I haven't talked to tomorrow (which is tough since my school is pretty tiny). However I feel like there are others in the same situation as me here, who devour trp material with a hefty appetite, but never once translate it into action. Don't fall into that trap like I have. Read the basics, practice it, then move on to the icing on the cake.
