The article discusses the author's experience with attempting a "dopamine detox" to break bad habits, such as watching YouTube, gaming, smoking, and consuming pornography. The author initially tried to completely eliminate these habits for 30 days, but found this approach to be unsustainable and often led to relapse.
The author then learned an important lesson from the movie "The Equalizer" - that progress, not perfection, should be the goal. The author realized that even if they failed or relapsed occasionally, the important thing was that they were decreasing the frequency and duration of these relapses over time. The author embraced their failures as a necessary part of the journey towards their goals, rather than seeing them as failures.
The article emphasizes that progress is about continuous improvement, not about achieving perfection. The author encourages readers to befriend their failures and maintain a positive mindset, as they work towards their goals. The key message is that success is not about reaching a perfect state, but about the journey of gradual, consistent progress.
