Hey man, welcome! It's good to have you here. Something that really helped me was just knowing exactly what porn is: any artificial sexual stimulation. For me, this information helped me not even get close to anything resembling porn. That has helped me A TON.
I had to put what you said in bold because I definitely agree with you 100%. From, pictures, to erotic literature its all artificially stimulating. I'd go as far as to say having thoughts and fantasies is artificial sexual stimulation.
Goals I want to achieve from this Journey:
1. 90 Days or more
2. A complete mind and sexual reboot
3. Connect with women more (especially during sex)
4. Become aroused naturally with a woman by touch, sight, sound etc., instead of using porn to aid in getting aroused artificially
Boundaries:
No porn of any form (erotic literature, pictures, videos)
Limit the amount of fantasizing/sexual thoughts I do
Only looking at women above the neck (I like to challenge myself)
What may help me succeed:
1. Knowing why I'm doing this
2. Meditating
3. Limit the amount of time in on the internet (specifically social media)
4. Reading and understanding how porn affects the brain
5. Discerning the difference between living in fantasy vs reality (because porn only appeals to our fantasy)
I'll be updating my goals as time goes on and changes i notice starting from today 11-23-2019. I'm currently 5 days into my reboot.
