Day One 20 Jun 2025 07:36 #437689

Made it to thirty before. That was the goal and on the thirtieth day right after I achieved it I went out. 90 really is the ticket to know if I’m in this. I really really really want to want this. Sometimes I don’t want it. But I always want to want to.

do you have a copy of The Battle of the Generation?

The Battle of the Generation by Hillel S. has been a huge help for me.  Message me to find out how you can receive a free copy.



some of the experiences I write about may make it easier to identify me.  This is ok.  I trust that if anyone discovers my identity they will keep it to themselves.  If you do realize that you  know me, I am completely comfortable and welcome you acknowledging me and my struggle in person.

Welcome buddy and good luck! as per your post your not the first one, doesn't it say about the yidden in the midbar ויתאבו תאוה, and they got their wish......., so if that's what happens when someone wants to want bad, כל שכן when it comes to good, stay in there and you will see that your wish will come true,

with a warm understanding heart,

I promise you that viewing 90 as the ticket is an excellent way to binge on day 91.

90 is a great goal. So is 30. But day-long streaks are a short term measure.

In the long term it's about leveraging your "want to want" to set up systems and tools that keep you going on the journey. Eventually, if you put in the hard work, inner change happens at some point.

A good place to start is the book Vehkam mentioned. Another good place to start is with a mentor.

Hatzlacha!
