like making music and streaming YouTube videos (I'm not gonna share my YouTube channel here).,

Good. Go act on that inspiration. Life is paradoxical. You find your greatest treasures in the areas where you never thought they could be.

but I have few views and I can’t build a career around that.

Doesn’t matter right now. All you trying to do is plant seeds and water them with inspiration. They will grow fruit only if you continue to water them. The plant  dies when you stop believing in it and giving it love.

Also like I said I study philosophy and to be honest thats not gonna make a good career and earn me a good chunk of money

I hear ya. It is tough. However, there are other ways to use your philosophy skills down the road.

Maybe I need to find a job ASAP while I'm finishing my philosophy degree .

Getting work experience wouldn’t be a bad idea. How can you know what you want without knowing what you don’t want? Use early work experiences to figure that out while also making money and building resume.

It completely make me lose motivation. I feel guilty when  i do it .it reduces my energy and overall make me depressed and unproductive. I think I should stop completely. 

Good idea. What is your plan to stop? Also, it would be interesting to examine your feelings and beliefs more around sex. Use a therapist and a journal.

Btw, don’t expect you quitting the porn drug cold turkey. If you can, then great. Sometimes, it takes small, brave baby steps to accomplish your goals. Strive to take one baby step of improvement each day. It is helpful to have an accountability partner or coach because if you have set goals and failed them many times, it is not uncommon to lose integrity with yourself. You gotta slowly build back your integrity with yourself by setting goals you know you can accomplish that day. If you set too many high goals and don’t achieve them, you can imagine what this could do to your self-efficacy. It’s like having a friend who promises and never delivers. If you have such a friend, you will eventually lose trust with them. The same can happen to yourself. Gain back that personal accountability and keep staying hard! This is my last post on this post here. Wish you well.


All Teachers and Teachings are delusion. You have all the answers within you. The first step on the journey to Enlightenment is questioning all the beliefs and teachings you have ever received. Teachers/Teachings are a distraction/maya at the highest level. There comes a point where you need to trust in your own innate knowledge and derive your own insights into the nature of reality. Teachers make a living and lifestyle of selling you water by the river. You don’t need them. All you need is an insatiable desire for truth and then seriously contemplate reality and uncover all that is false.
