Abstaining from masturbation, porn, and casual sex forces your brain to chase real intimacy instead. With no easy outlet, the only way to feel rewarded is to actually pursue a genuine relationship, which speeds up your progress toward that goal.
Think about it. You know when you're in class, right? And you have this exam in front of you, okay? But you cannot do anything. You cannot have your phone. There is nothing to do but your exam. You're going to have to finish your exam, if that makes sense. There's no distractions. There's no other options but to finish your exam and try your best at finishing that exam so that you can get the best grade. Now, the same sort of analogy applies here with sexual transmutation. If you don't have the option of releasing through masturbation or watching porn or engaging in casual sex, And instead you say, you know what, I'm going to wait until I get married, for example, if that's what you want to follow. Well, what happens is in the absence of options, distractions, and other stimuli or escapes, the only way to feel rewarded is to move closer to your goal. What happens is in a good sense, you will be forced to progress. Really think about it. It's very logical. If I want to wait until marriage and I give myself no other options but to get married in order to satisfy what I am innately predispositioned to, right? That desire for real intimacy. Then guess what? I'm going to have to take action and progress towards that goal, and I'm going to do it at a much faster pace and with much more intensity. And I'm basically going to achieve that goal way faster because now I don't have any other options.
