Motivation lasts for a day, routine for a week, discipline forever
How do you develop self-discipline, and stop yourself from enjoying pic related behaviors?
How do you push yourself to study/work when you can afford to be lazy in a moment?
Getting up early, in oppose to sleeping
Working physically or mentally as oppose to getting sense of enjoyment from being lazy and watching shit/browsing chon

You just do it. There is no secret to discipline
I think willpower is pretty much like a muscle. The more you use it the stronger it gets. Anyway, how do you develop discipline?
Step by step. I don't think you can reasonably pull off a 180 from one day to another - you just have so many things to keep track of that you can't do it all at once. So instead, you ougth to do it step by step: first, start doing cold showers. Do that for a couple of months, till the point where it just becomes normal for you. Now this by itself isn't enough obviously, so you can add some things to it like idk, cutting down with sugar, etc - but you ought not to get overwhelmed. E.g. if you're an overweight couch potato you can't suddenly go to the gym 5 times a day, fix your complete diet, work more productively, fix your relationship, give up some addiction, etc etc.. you're probably going to get overwhelmed, and frankly, that's mostly because you DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
I mean if you know HOW to do exactly a couple of things, it's pretty easy. If you want to stop smoking, fapping, and stop drinking beers everyday, those are easily defined, easily measured parameters. I think you can do that from one day to another. But "fixing my relationship with my parents" or "getting fit" or even "eating healthy" is not so easy as most people have horrendous misconceptions about most of these things.
Thinking back, this isn't quite what OP meant but hey, it's somewhat related imo.

True that some things you can go cold turkey, but that turning point we all faces, whether it is fapping the 10th day or smoking a cig, dropping out of cold shower meme is what separates success from failure
Knowing what to do, and what not to do on days like that is vital imo
what's the point of nofap?
Gotta enjoy things in moderation, both extremes can be awful.
This guy says he does this every Saturday, which could just be considered a day off.

If it allows you to enjoy your life without ruining others' lives and you can keep it from seeping into other aspects of your life why not.
