Day 8

The 8th day of my second attempt, and still going strong. I've been having a few small urges, but nothing I haven't been able to handle. I think it mostly comes out of putting myself in a few bad situations. Every once in a while I'll play some video games late into the night, at which point my wife is asleep and I'm on the computer in the wee hours of the morning. I know it's not the best situation to be in, and I need to try to stay out of it as much as possible. I've been trying to go to bed/wake up earlier, so that this does not become an issue in the future. I know that as soon as this attempt reaches around 30 days, the urges/thoughts will get smaller and smaller, as I have experienced from my previous attempts. I know I can do it. Things are good right now. I also need to make it a point to pray/read my Bible more. I know some may not look to God in times of trouble and temptation, but it really helps me. The way I see it, the more good stuff I put into myself, the less room there is for anything else. It's easier said than done, but it's another thing on my list.
