Overcome Pornography - Ask a Coach: When You Slip Up

Episode 152: Ask a Coach: When You Slip Up

December 11, 20232 min read

“If you slip up and view pornography, do you struggle for the rest of the day?"

This week’s Ask a Coach is from someone who found that if they view pornography early in the day, they don’t bother trying to avoid pornography until they get a fresh start the next day. This is common when people are trying to quit porn, it’s a product of all-or-nothing thinking, and it isn’t helping you find peace and ease in quitting porn.

Tune in this week to discover how to make sure a slip-up doesn’t ruin your day. I’m discussing how to measure your progress on your journey of quitting pornography, showing you why slipping up isn’t a problem, and you’ll learn how to keep making progress toward your goal of quitting porn even if you’ve slipped up in the morning.
