Sub day. 3 min each of Aeon/Earth custom, EOG ST1 and ASBR.

Current reading:

  1. the Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
  2. A Changed Mind by David Bayer

On deck: A Happy Pocket Full of Money by David Gikandi.

I think there’s a parallel between sub hopping and over trading. Both rooted in FOMO, impatience, and dopamine chasing.

Although my TFSA return of 22% is respectable, I left significant gains on the table due to prioritizing monthly/weekly cash flow over long term gains like selling covered calls too soon. PLTR comes to mind, still have 100 shares left but sold too soon the other 600. LULU I’m waiting for more upward movement before I sell a call on it. Only have 100 shares of it.

As for BTC (MARA/MRAL play), BTC looks to have breached the SMA 30 on the daily. RSI 8 weekly still at 35 indicates it may be early still. A full candle above the SMA 30 would be promising for a sustained bull run.

Weekly investing cash flow for week ending Dec 26:
$217.34
For week ending Jan 2:
$282.93.

Candito workout week 3 day 3 on Wednesday
Squat 360x5. Was supposed to be 370x5
RDL 2x205x8

Open workout today
Bench press 225x5, 255x5, 255x8

Working on building a mission and mission statement. Using Grok for prompts. Documenting peak experiences and frustration/injustices. May look to book a coaching session with a men’s group facilitator after I work through the prompts to refine and get live feedback.

Sub day 3 min each of Aeon/Earth, Khan W&P customs along with EOG ST1. The Khan custom seems to blend better with EOG ST1 then ASBR.

Experienced extreme anger at work the other day. Had to take a walk outside to cool off. My number 1 pet peeve/injustice is government waste, fraud, and corruption. I was so upset I was unable to have an intelligent debate about it, just rage rants. Cooled off about it by last night to where I could finally express myself without sounding pissed.

I am super intrigued by Steve Jobs “Reality Distortion Field” where anyone in his presence believed they could achieve the impossible. I have since tweaked my wealth custom towards more charisma/social modules now. Still ASBR/HOM cores as they blend very well for me. Still have to read the copy of upcoming C&C update.

It seems EOG ST1 has unlocked a new level of charisma regarding the Khan Wealth and Power custom. It’s a dense stack the 2 powerhouse customs and the heavy healing of EOG ST1.

Yesterday at work I was very social, not very productive work wise but that’s ok in my current role.

I did my second speech evaluation at toastmasters last night. Won best evaluator award but was disqualified for going 1 second over the limit. Your allowed 30 seconds over but I was 31 over. I still take that as a personal win considering I was more nervous about giving an evaluation than a speech 6 months ago.

Decided to burn a sick day today because there’s a men’s group meeting tonight with the topic being finding your mission. This men’s group facilitator is who would hire for a private coaching session to go deeper into this subject. Will re evaluate after tonight’s session.

I feel way better and with more purpose then I did on Saturday during a day of despair. I’ve taken on mentoring one of the apprentices at work which has given me purpose at work. If I don’t get the field position I would reconsider going for lead hand again. Previously withdrew my bid for it when I was butting heads with my boss awhile back. We have since come full circle.

Sub day EOG ST1, Khan W&P custom, Aeon/Earth custom 1:30 each. Last work day of set.

The men’s group meeting last night went quite well. Shared journeys and perspectives were quite helpful.

Did the full Qi Gong routine today including 2 min of standing crane nest ending with 9 reps of dragon scooping Qi which takes a minute. This was the most energy I felt in my body during DSQ, after the 3rd rep the body was on fire. Guess it pays to prep with the complete routine. We did some at the meeting last night finishing with a horse stance which inspired me to go for the full routine today. Now if I could stay consistent with it that would be great.

This is the latest custom draft. Getting close to finalizing it.

Weekly investing cash flow for week ending Jan 9
TFSA: $103.80
Margin: $517.24
Total: $621.04.

Margin account surged 22% this week. Almost back to even from the loss from last year. It’s a volatile portfolio that has wild swings at times.

Sounds like I got that transfer position, just waiting on the offer letter to sign. It’s around a 25% pay increase in base rate which is quite substantial. I credit the Khan: Power and Wealth custom for pulling the trigger on the transfer. I was wishy washy on transferring for a year till I finally got clear on what I wanted.

Past 2 candito workouts:
Friday week 3 day 4. Was supposed to be bench press 3x270x4-6. Got 270x4, 270x3, 270x2. Was powered out after the first set of 4.

Today squat 370x3, 380x3, 390x3. Last set was ugly but got it.

Bench press power appears to be stalling out. Also have had a sinus cold the past few days which probably effected Friday workout. Today the warmup for squat felt good right up until 370 then it felt heavy.

Today I upped the stack to 7 min. Will repeat that length on Tuesday then cut it back for work again.

Have been getting my girlfriend to listen to 3-4 min of EOG ST1 the past few days. Friday we added DD:TS and today was EOG ST1, DD:TS, and DD.

Signed the offer letter today for the transfer. Have 1 more rotation then I’m out of there.

Due to a previously booked 20 day vacation in Mexico that’s pre booked I will do one rotation up at the new place then be off for 35 days because of the way the shifts fall. May do some online training during that time.

Regarding the custom I have swapped out module Roots of Scarcity for AI Whisperer.

Cándido workout week 4 day 2. Bench press 265x3, 270x3, 275x3. Last one was a grinder. Still feeling a bit under the weather.

Ended up doing 5 min of each sub yesterday. Will commence 3 day washout unless Emp:C&C is delayed. I anticipate it out by Friday night and will give it a listen Saturday.

Did table topics evaluation at toastmasters the other night, a quick evaluation for 6 people and won best evaluator for the night. This time legit as I didn’t go over.

One drawback of the new position is that I’ll only be able to make it to 1 TM meeting every 4 weeks due to the schedule and travel days. If I found a different club that meets on a different night I’d be able to make it every second night.

Day 3 of washout.
Margin weekly investing Cashflow for week ending jan 16: $672.06.

No TFSA traded this week. PLTR 195 call expired out of the money. It’s paying good premium the 28 day/feb 13 strikes due to earnings on Feb 2. Will roll the dice and wait till then to sell another call on it. LULU isn’t paying much right now. Earnings sometimes in March.

Margin acct up close to 30% YTD fully erasing 2025 loss. BTC along with MARA appear to have bottomed and on the rebound.

New cycle after 4 day washout.
Sub day 1: C&C 1:30
Rest day
Sub day 2: C&C, ASBR, WDB 1:30 each.
Today is another test day and was also the last day at work prior to transfer.

I felt the love at work today big time with everyone genuinely wishing me the best. Gave a short 2-3 min send off speech at our morning meeting and spoke from the heart.

On the weekend I vented some petty grievances with a co worker. At his safety meeting he mentioned morale being way down and used my petty grievance as an example of why people are leaving.

I was concerned about sounding petty so today I spoke with a couple of supervisors and mentioned that I’m leaving for more excitement, new challenges, opportunities, and the substantial pay increase not petty grievances. They already knew that.

I have no hard feelings, I have nothing but by appreciation for my time there of almost 6 years.

Another result of C&C is my market outlook. Been a volatile couple of days and I haven’t had to be glued to the phone watching the market.

Good chance it will be a loosing week as I have a MSFT credit spread due next week that’s getting too close for comfort. Plus earnings was pushed a week early, before expiration and don’t want to hold the position over earnings.

The result is a more long term outlook. Will hold the volatile positions for now and look to unwind next time they spike to reposition with more stable plays.

Sub day 3:
ASBR, C&C, WDB 2 min each.

Haven’t workout out in over a week. Had a stubborn sinus infection that lingered for a couple weeks. Did 3 Candito workouts during the first week of it. Had great sleep this past week. Will resume workouts on the weekend. Will do more bodybuilding style for now. Won’t push the intensity quite like I was previously.

Sent in the custom draft to qOS. It recommended removing Essence:The wonder and the mystery, Entranced, and Chrisma and flirting automatic mento improver. So I removed those but couldn’t help it and added in Voice of Desire, Gratitude embodiment, and Deep Sleep so it’s still maxed out at 20 but more focused and less dense with 2 Essence modules instead of 3. Ordered it this morning.

Here is the final draft:

Sub day 4: C&C, ASBR, WDB 3 min each.

Weekly investing cashflow for week ending jan 23:
Margin: -$133.82
TFSA: $237.60
Total: $103.78.

Closed the MSFT credit spread for -376.11. Original sale was 217.34 for total loss of the trade of -158.77. Counted the -376.11 against the weekly cashflow. Was happy to get out of it for the small loss. The stock rebounded Friday, would have been upwards of -800 the day before to close. Quite possible it ends next week above the stikes of 445-435 but with earnings next week anything can happen.

Sub day 5: C&C, ASBR, WDB 2 min each. Dropped back to 2 min from 3. Seems my patience has been wearing thin. Could be stress from the transition period that I find myself in. My workplace dumped more online training in my lap Friday which I finished over the weekend. Got 4 more in person training days this week then ship tools Friday. It’s been hectic since my last day at the other branch.

Past 2 workouts:
Incline dumbbell press 70x10, 80x10, 85x8. Dumbbell rows, pec dec, hammer curl, skull crushers.

Squat 275x5, 315x5, 225x10. Standing calf raise single leg.

Yesterday was sub day 6:
C&C, ASBR, WDB, Khan ST4 2 min each.

Workout yesterday. Seated dumbbell Arnold press. 60X8, 70X6, 75X4. Lat pull-down, cable crossover and quick arm workout to finish.

Khan does indeed stack well with WDB based on limited testing. Previous test was 30 seconds each a couple weeks ago. WDB adds a playful element to Khan’s sexual dominance.

Got an email Monday night saying my custom order has been processed. The next day logged on and it said order on hold contact support, the one with the licensing fees. The build order says in process. I did fill in a support ticket regarding the order on hold. Haven’t heard back yet. Also didn’t get express delivery either so will wait till early next week before reaching out again.

Sub day 7:
C&C, Khan, WDB, TS/IC custom 4 min each. Pushed the listening time today. Head to site Monday evening so will throttle back Sunday’s loops and cut out Khan. Hoping for my custom to arrive by early next week.

Yesterdays workout:
Squat 275x5, 315x5, 315x10, 225x10. At one time 225x10 used to be my baseline. For the longest time it was 315x5. Now I’d like 315x10 to be my new baseline.

Didn’t do any Cashflow trades the past week. Closing out the MSFT credit spread of 445-435 bull put spread last week proved to be the right call as it closed this week below 435 which would have resulted in max loss of 1000/per contract. Exited last week at 187 x 2 contracts.

Will consider taking profits on META next week for a 10% gain roughly. Sitting around 100% gain in GOOGL and 50% in BE. Both report earnings next week so will roll the dice 1 more earnings cycle for now. PLTR earnings are out next week too. It’s sold off heavily the past couple weeks and is due for a rebound.
