I wanted to order Hackbook in reverse (i.e. oldest to newest) so that it’s easier for the reader to start at the correct page.
I ran into the following problem - the default list.html
So I found this forum post and I created a file in the _default

I named my file order by oldest because I plan on reusing it in other places. This is what’s contained inside it:

-Dr. Albert Ellis’ autobiography - “All Out!”
“I used to wrongly think that most of them (addicts) were aided by self-help groups like AA, by therapy, or some other real support. But no. The facts show that more people surrender their addictions on their own-without any notable help from others. How? Mainly by seeing, acknowledging, and emphasizing how hard it is not to stop and how much easier it is-in the long run- to suffer through the withdrawal process.”

‘I’M GOING TO CURE THE WORLD OF PMO’
-
+
I was talking to my mentor. He thought that I had flipped. Understandable if you consider that he had watched me fail on numerous attempts to quit. The most recent had been two years previously. I’d actually survived six months of sheer purgatory before I finally succumbed and found myself clicking on stacked up tabs of porn sites. I’m not ashamed to admit that I cried like a baby. I was crying because I knew that I was condemned to be an addict for life. I’d put so much effort into that attempt and suffered so much misery that I knew I would never have the strength to go through that ordeal again. I’m not a violent man, but if some patronizing non-PMO’er had been stupid enough at that moment to suggest to me that all users can find it easy to quit, immediately and permanently, I would not have been responsible for my actions. However, I’m convinced that any jury in the world, comprised of PMOers only, would have pardoned me on the grounds of justifiable homicide.
Perhaps you too find it impossible to believe that any PMOer can find it easy to quit. If so, I beg you not to cast this book into the rubbish bin. Please trust me. I assure you that you can find it
easy to quit.

In any event, PMOers like other addicts are notorious liars, even to themselves. They have to be. Most casual PMOers indulge far more times and on far more occasions than they will admit to. I have had many conversations with so-called twice-a-week PMOers during which they have done it more than three times that week. If you read the Reddit or No-Fap forums of casual PMOers, they are either counting the days or waiting to fail. You do not need to envy casual PMOers. You do not need to PMO. Life is infinitely sweeter without PMO. One log says…
“It started with a simple challenge to not touch my penis for a day. And being unable. I don’t think about masturbation anymore. It doesn’t cross my mind. That is possible, I promise you. And the riches that await those who are able - they’re incredible.”

Remember you aren’t giving anything up. On the contrary: you are about to receive marvellous positive gains.
For years the medical profession viewed porn is harmless without knowing the difference between the tame static porn of yesteryear and the latest VR streaming porn. The problem is this; although every PMOer uses internet porn purely to relieve the brain chemical craving for dopamine, it is not the addiction to the brain chemical itself that hooks the PMOer but the self-brainwashing that results from that addiction. An intelligent person will fall for a confidence trick. But only a fool will go on falling for it once he realizes that it’s a confidence trick. Fortunately, most PMOers aren’t fools; they only think they are. Each individual PMOer has his own private brainwashing. That is why there appears to be such a wide range of different types of PMOer, which only serves to compound the mysteries.
With the benefit of the original book that used this method to stop smoking, which dealt with nicotine addiction (one of the most quickest and addictive drug known to man) and bearing in mind that the personal logs that I collected from Reddit, NoFap and YBOP blogs and forums, I was agreeably surprised to realize that the philosophy propounded in the original book was still sound. The accumulated knowledge that was acquired by the original author Alan Carr and by myself the hack-author is how to communicate that knowledge to each individual PMOer. The fact that I know every PMOer can not only find it easy to stop but can actually enjoy the process is not only pointless but exceedingly frustrating unless I can make the PMOer realize it. The original author of the quit smoking book explains some controversial advice:

“WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR LAST PMO VISIT”

I knew, right from that point, that I would never PMO again. I wasn’t expecting it to be easy; in fact, just the reverse. I fully believed that I was in for months of black depression and that I would spend the rest of my life having the occasional pang. Instead it has been absolute bliss right from the start.
It took me a long time to work out why it had been so easy and why this time I hadn’t suffered those terrifying withdrawal pangs. The reason is that they do not exist. It is the doubt and uncertainty that causes the pangs. The beautiful truth is: IT IS EASY TO STOP PMO. It is only the indecision and moping about it that makes it difficult. Even while they are addicted to porn, PMOers can go for relatively long periods at certain times in their lives without bothering about it. It is only when you want it but can’t have one that you suffer.
Therefore the key to making it easy is to make stopping certain and final. Not to hope but to know you have kicked it, having made the decision. Never to doubt or question it. In fact, just the reverse - always to rejoice about it. If you can be certain from the start, it will be easy. But how can you be certain from the start unless you know it is going to be easy? This is why the rest of the book is necessary. There are certain essential points and it is necessary to get them clear in your mind before you start:

Fear of failure. There is no disgrace in failure but not to try is plain stupidity. Look at it this way - you’re hiding from nothing. The worst thing that can happen is that you fail, in which case you are no worse off than you are now. Just think how wonderful it would be to succeed. If you don’t make the attempt, you have already guaranteed failure.
Fear of panic and of being miserable. Don’t worry about it. Just think: what awful thing could happen to you if you never again PMOed? Absolutely none. Terrible things will happen if you do. Re-read my notes on Pascal’s Wager. In any case, the panic is caused by dopamine and will soon be gone. The greatest gain is to be rid of that fear. Do you really believe that PMOers are prepared to have fading penetrations and unreliable erections or the pleasure of orgasms which they get from porn? If you find yourself feeling panicky, deep breathing will help. If you are with other people and they are getting you down, go away from them. Escape to the garage or an empty office or wherever.
-If you feel like crying, don’t be ashamed. Crying is nature’s way of relieving tension. No one has ever had a good cry without feeling better afterwards. One of the awful things we do to young boys is to teach them not to cry. You see them trying to fight the tears back but watch the jaw grinding away. We teach ourselves to not to show any emotions. We are meant to show emotions, not to try to bottle them up inside us. Scream or shout or have a tantrum. Kick a cardboard box or filing cabinet.

The worst thing that can happen is that you fail, in which case you are no worse off than you are now. Just think how wonderful it would be to succeed.

<li>Fear of panic and of being miserable. Don’t worry about it. Just think: what awful thing could happen to you if you never again PMOed? Absolutely none. Terrible things will happen if you do. Re-read my notes on Pascal’s Wager. In any case, the panic is caused by dopamine and will soon be gone. The greatest gain is to be rid of that fear. Do you really believe that PMOers are prepared to have fading penetrations and unreliable erections or the pleasure of orgasms which they get from porn? If you find yourself feeling panicky, deep breathing will help. If you are with other people and they are getting you down, go away from them.

We are meant to show emotions, not to try to bottle them up inside us. Scream or shout or have a tantrum. Kick a cardboard box or filing cabinet. Regard your struggle as a boxing match that you cannot lose. No one can stop time. Every moment that passes that little porn monster inside you is dying. Enjoy your inevitable victory.

3. Not following the instructions. Incredibly, some PMOers say to me, “Your method just didn’t work for me.” They then describe how they ignored not only one instruction but practically all of them. (For clarification I will summarize these in the check-list at the end of this chapter).
