- Do you really want to or is there a part of you that isn’t willing to let it go yet?
- Choosing to do this on purpose.
- Not waiting until you never look at porn to have the confidence to be a free person
- Commitment vs wanting – if you want something that doesn’t mean you will be able to get it.
