Porn Free Radio, episode 153.

Well, I'm back, guys, on the heels of the shortest episode of porn free radio ever,

episode 152.

That was the first in our series on resistance in recovery.

And in the show, I talked about some of the resistance we face in the first 30 days of recovery.

That's back in episode 152.

Now, resistance is a term that I learned from Stephen Presfield, who wrote The War of Art.

And he wrote in that book that resistance is the most toxic force on the planet. It's the root of

more unhappiness than poverty, disease, and erectile dysfunction. To yield to resistance,

deforms our spirit. It stunts us and makes us less than we are and we're born to be. So it's this thing, it's this force that gets in

the way of who we were born to be, who God created us to be, who our full potential, from us

getting to our full potential. And it's the habits, it's the, the kind of unsound activity that gets in the way. And it's the habits. It's the, uh, the, the kind of unsound activity that

gets in the way. And it definitely affects us in recovery. And I talked about in the first 30 days,

the resistance we face is fear, self doubt, and denial. So we're going to talk about that next stage of recovery, days 31 through 90 in this episode. So let's start the show.

I had this quote last week, but let me read it again by Stephen

Pressfield from The War of Art.

Most of us have two lives.
