HABITS

We are what our habits make us. 

Our habit constantly are either moving us forward or holding us back. Unfortunately, when it comes to habits, its much easier to form bad habits than it is a good habit. This is because bad habits are usually easy to do. They take little effort. On the other hand, a good habit requires effort and self-discipline. They are much more difficult to acquire.

Theron Dumont quoted "All our life, so far as it has definite form, is but a mass of habits – practical, emotional, and intellectual – systematically organized, for our weal or woe, and bearing us irresistibly toward our destiny whatever it may be."

Negative habits are time wasting, character eroding, and health destroying. Once developed. A bad habit is difficult to overcome. Once overcome, one must be constantly on guard against slipping back into it. Unlike bad habits, a good habit is much easier to let go. Maintaining a good habit demands constant attention.

It would be much easier to not have formed the bad habit in the first place, but unfortunately, they are often formed in youth, when one lacks the foresight to see ahead the consequences of their actions.

Good habits, once developed, are what drive a person toward success and accomplishment that was why Aristotle said "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act but a habit."

One thing that can help keep you adhering to your good habits is to keep your eye on the big picture. Keep in mind that each daily task accomplished is moving you toward your goals. It takes about thirty days to form a habit. Once a good habit has been developed, a person feels uncomfortable and ill at ease if he neglects it. Instead of a burden, a new good habit becomes a comfort and a joy.

Dont be discouraged if you slip up, either by neglecting a good habit or falling back into a bad one. Just pick yourself up and get back on the right track. Admonish yourself to show more resolve but dont torture yourself and fall into a hopeless depression.

The greatest glory is in never falling, but rising when you fall.

-Vince Lombardi

Dont let people ridicule you for persisting in your good habits. They are just trying to pull you down to their level. You will soon leave them in the dust. People who exercise regularly or try to eat healthy are often derided as being fanatics. Those that criticize are just feeling guilty because they lack the resolve to do what you are doing.

Sit down and think for a moment about what habits you may have. What are your good habits? What habits are hindering you? People of character are the ones who have built good habits into their lives and have eliminated the bad ones. It is your life and your responsibility to govern yourself. You are the master of your ship.

Masturbation is the stimulation of one's genital organs, which results in orgasm. Masturbation has historically been stigmatized by religious and cultural beliefs, with consequences such as premature aging, spontaneous blindness, genital numbness, and a variety of other unscientific issues.

The question now is whether masturbation is beneficial to one's health.

Yes! According to research, masturbation is good for your mental, physical, and sexual health.

This article will discuss the health advantages of masturbation.

 

1. Overcoming Performance Anxiety

Masturbation can assist you in conditioning your mind and body to conquer performance anxiety. That is anxiety about 'performing' before or during sex. When you experience stress while erect, your stress hormones constrict blood vessels, interfering with the blood flow required to maintain your erection. This is extremely common, and there are treatments available to you, such as exercises, therapy, and masturbation.

Masturbation, in moderation, can be used to treat both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.

 

2. Understand Your Arousal and Regulate When You Orgasm

Masturbation can help you learn about your arousal scale. This entails noticing variations in how turned on or sensitive your genitals are. Noting these sensations can help you train your body to control the direction of that sensation. Whether it's edging yourself and returning to a lower arousal state, or allowing yourself to finish. You can exert authority.

 

3. Increase Your Confidence and Prepare You for Partnered Sex

Masturbation can help you discover pleasures you enjoy, allowing you to communicate with your bed partner. The added benefit? Exploring different types of touch will help you prepare for the various sensations of partnered sex. You may ejaculate sooner than expected, or you may find it more difficult to achieve orgasm, masturbating at different speeds, grips, and pressures can help you prepare for these new and exciting sensations!

Women can learn about their bodies and how their sexual stimulation works by taking the time to masturbate. This exploration may increase the chances of experiencing orgasm, especially for those with anorgasmia. Anorgasmia (the inability to orgasm) is one of the most common sexual issues that women face today, owing in part to the fact that female sexual pleasure has historically been under-researched and widely misunderstood.

 

4. Boost your sexual desire

Erotic activities can increase your desire for sex. These activities differ, as previously stated, but the desire to experience sexual intimacy with someone sometimes requires a little prodding. If you don't often feel turned on, try some solo play to remind your body how good it feels to be pampered. It's fine if it feels strange at first; just relax and enjoy yourself! Then channel that newfound energy into your bedroom relationship.

 

5. Goodbye, Stress, and Hello, Pleasure!

Masturbation can be a way to relieve stress, making sleep easier. Stress reduction is extremely beneficial to overall health. According to studies, regular sex and other sexual activities is good for your health and lower your risk of heart disease! What a fantastic reason to have some fun, both alone and with a partner. Stress management can be difficult, but you can use this fun way to help yourself.

 

Overuse Possibility and negative effects.

Masturbation, like anything else in life, has potential drawbacks. Anyone is capable of developing unhealthy habits. For example, some men over the age of 25, particularly those who struggle with constant erections, should try limiting their masturbation frequency. Consider changing your pattern if you masturbate to orgasm more than two times a day and have erection problems. Rather, try once every 48-72 hours to make your erection more reliable and to increase the intensity of your orgasms.

Porn is also easy to over-indulge making sexual activities feel boring. Reduce your porn usage to 30 minutes per week and observe how it affects your arousal.

Masturbation has no negative effect on sex drive in women, according to science. Just keep in mind to vary your sensations, touch, and pressure. For example, if you frequenty use a specific setting on your vibrator, experiment with other settings or try a different toy entirely. Masturbation is essential for achieving orgasm more consistently during partnered sex (which is statistically harder for a person with a vulva to do during heterosexual sex).
