Day 7: 3 minutes of LBFH/DRLD custom.

Bumping up listening time due to not having recon from this title, at least nothing I’ve noticed.

Falling asleep is wild when you hit the point where the unconscious comes to the surface. A lot of times it seems like completely random things that just pop up. It’s also like a dream in that it’s not easy to remember, in a few moments it’s faded away. Had a few moments of that last night, this am.

I stayed up late last night. Still got 8 hours of sleep. I’m back in ketosis so I’m like 2 hours late on my first nutrition of the day, I just forgot. Drank my nutrient shake and now I’m feeling great today. Still a little sore from the weekend work but I’m gonna get my workout in. Probably won’t go for max pushups today, I’ll keep it a few reps short.


Okay so I guess I’m only on for a recovery workout today. I want to err on the side of recovery if I’m still sore. No pushups today, maybe wall pushups for blood flow. I’m still buying into the idea that recovery might be more important than everything else and I can still make progress without beating my body up. Light days keep me consistent and get my body moving so I can feel good.

After warming up I did the normal pushups. Cranked out 3 more reps than last week.

Had some anxiety come up after exercising. I spent some minutes releasing/letting go. Then the love bomb came back.

Day 8: No listening.

I’m confident that I will be doing 15 minute loops of LBFH/DRLD by the end of this cycle. 2 title stack is really the way to go for me. Especially with 1 custom in the mix. After that first cycle of 30 seconds with it, things are starting to lighten up and still no recon that I’ve noticed.

I just started thinking about Primal again. But I really like having Paragon on board for the health peace of mind. And I don’t want to do a 3 title stack while I’m running a custom. So Spartan Apex still fits the bill, it’s not Primal, but I think for my purposes and intentions this year, it will be good.

I went to a different gas station today. I walked in and some guy was at the cashier. I’m pretty sure he said hi how’s it going to me as I was walking in.That was new. He didn’t work there, just some random guy. The kind of guy I see around but never get acknowledged by, but that’s generally most people. But yea that never happens so I almost took it as that didn’t really happen kind of things, lol. Just so I don’t feel like I was being rude.

That reminded me that last week I was in the gas station. A different one. I go to the small ones because they don’t get big crowds. So I walk in and it’s like this guy could almost feel my vibe or something so he had to turn around when I came in and said hi to me. So I said hi to him. But like I’m not feeling particularly high vibing in those situations, it’s more what I’d call normal. But that’s gotta be LBFH at work.

But I wasn’t paying attention to him I was trying to decide if the other cashier girl was closed or open, she was on her phone texting or something. So finally she tells me she’s open after I’m standing there a few moments. Again one of those chicks I liked but she was like cold, there was zero interest in me. So after I was driving away I was laughing about it because I was reading the situation but it didn’t matter, I didn’t even care. She didn’t like me, oh well. More of an NPC type anyway.

Then on the way home I stopped at the bank. The cashier didn’t seem into me but again, I thought she was alright. So I just let myself appreciate her without saying it and was making eye contact. At the end of the transaction I could tell she was more open to me. So it is kind of simple sometimes. Some just aren’t gonna be into you. Some might not seem to be into you at first but make good eye contact, let yourself feel appreciation or something, and want nothing from them and you’re in. I guess I can’t say she would date me or anything but odds are way higher than with the first chick. I’m still not dating for practical reasons but it’s nice to be noticing some things. Feeling better about being around people lately. Not always, but more often than not.

Also had one trying to sneak a look at me who had a bf, at least I thought. They were close to each other and so I wasn’t even going to mess with that situation. So attraction is rising, even though LBFH isn’t a seduction title.

LBFH/DRLD seems to be activating the Lover archetype in me. I’m not seducing or bedding women but I can see that it’s definitely more Lover archetype. More about who I genuinely connect with rather than sport. Has the wheels turning, wondering about the possibilities of having Heartsong and S&S on board. But at this rate I don’t feel like I’d need those. That’d be more I’m feeling adventurous and let’s see what happens kind of fun. If anything Daredevil would be the ticket.

Day 9: 15 mins Paragon.

I’m feeling that ‘today is a good day’ kind of feeling. LBFH has really come on in this second cycle.

Reading through the DRLD description again. I’m more open to Legacy of Spartan. Since it’s pure looks maxxing. DRLD already has that scripting that is similar to Spartan Apex as far as taking action and mindset. And LOS also has some health scripting for organs and such. So LOS is on my radar now. I was even thinking of taking Wanted for a spin again. The drawback for me is it’s not health focused but I know I’d get the physical shifting benefits.

But again if I’m being more practical. Primal is on the radar, it has uses that have been said to also be great for things like business and it still has attraction.

I finally took a scoop of pre-workout after 2 months no caffeine. I felt like 50mg of daily afternoon caffeine was a nice little boost. This pre’s label says 150mg of caffeine and I’m just not feeling it. Maybe slowed down digestion since I ate 6 piece of string cheese an hour before taking it.

Spartan Apex will probably be the next title after Paragon, for me. Fitness is important to me and especially as I get older. I want to be as fit and athletic as possible for as long as possible. I’ll just get those boosted mental and action taking benefits as well, that go beyond just fitness goals. Primal does seem like a title I want to get back to though. I like the non-botheredness and my next run I’m sure I will benefit more from the social benefits.

End of night:

Slightest of recon. Maybe I’ll keep DRLD/LBFH to 3 mins for the cycle. Getting the good feelings and some light recon. I’ve reached a sweet spot- I lean on the sweet spot being temporary. Increasing as growth progresses, as I move past the recon than I can increase to the next time marker, thus, allowing a gradual progression while avoiding overload.

Day 10: No listening.

I had a dream about a female friend. For all intents and purposes she ghosted me last time I tried to talk to her. In the dream I guess I was at her place and she was moving. People were moving and I was just there, not helping and it wasn’t weird that I wasn’t. At one point we were walking and she put her hand on my bum and in the dream it just felt good hahahaha. I would say that’s my mind’s interpretation of DRLD at work. I forgot about that. Everytime I would start a new title I’d have dreams of me living in a different place or my room being empty, stuff like that. But since LBFH/DRLD isn’t new new new for me, I finally get some hints of DRLD removing limitations.

I really think LBFH/DRLD and my modules is the perfect blend for me. I would say I’ve gotten the confidence from DRLD and just coupled with LBFH it’s pretty great.

I even got some love flooding yesterday. I was tired and watching tv and I noticed that I was getting the love flooding effect. I wasn’t consciously guiding it. I think that’s the first time I really noticed it.

I also like having Paragon on board for peace of mind. If I get a little stressed and go through some recon I just remember that I’m happy to have Paragon on board to keep me healthy.

Also the light protection scripting of LBFH and the anti-manipulation disconnect from toxic influence is a killer combo for me. But it also has the positivity and mindset that it’s not defense focused. I’m more positive focused.

To me LBFH/DRLD is like a Genesis or something. It’s kind of an all around title. I can switch that second title which is Paragon depending on my focus. For the next 2 cycles I’m sticking with Paragon, which will get me to 6 cycles of it.

It really was the right move after Sanguine. I’d call LBFH/DRLD custom my all time favorite title. I think it gets me back to being me. Not this or that, just more me.

The only downside is that I wouldn’t want to run LBFH/DRLD custom with a 4 stager, besides maybe EOG or KB, maybe Alchemist. Eh, who am I kidding, I could do 30 seconds if I really wanted to do a 4 stager.

Did my 50 mg of caffeine and I haven’t eaten yet. I’m already feeling it. So that settles it, no eating before I take my caffeine. I took pre-workout yesterday but had eaten 6 piece of string cheese, so I never got that kick even though it had 150 mg of caffeine. The first week or two when I re-start keto diet, I eat more just to get myself settled back in. I like to keep myself not feeling hungry and then once I really get into ketosis, I tend to eat only because it’s time because I don’t get hungry a lot of the time.

I was reading through the DRLD thread and feeling pretty good about it. Since I’m not sure what title after Paragon, I’m thinking it’s time to take Genesis for a spin. After Paragon, that is. I’ll finally get some wealth scripting in the mix from Genesis along with knowing which titles are best for me.

Now it’s Limitless. That’s my next title, ahaha. I want to have the brainpower to learn and implement things. Having the Limitless boost might be the ticket.

I think Limitless will help me reignite some passions. I used to love learning and implementing them. But it seems like I lacked that mental energy sometimes. So Limitless is gonna be the way to go. It’ll also help me prep for QL.

I’d really like to start making money online. I mean just making say my first $100 from something other than selling my own stuff. I’ve also got many books I’d like to read through. I go for spurts, sometimes I’ll finish a couple books. Then I just won’t pick up reading again for awhile. I want to but like right now I’m a little tired. So I’m going to do a light workout before dinner. So Limitless will also help me streamline things like my workouts, whatever is going to be most efficient while allowing me the energy and time for my other goals such as studying and applying.

Day 11: 3 mins LBFH/DRLD custom.

The custom is going to work, again evidenced by last night’s dreams. It was featuring another woman from my past. The last one I thought was into me, but it turns out she had a man. I didn’t get attached or anything, not consciously. But I’m not sure exactly what it was working on. I would say it was working on some old pattern on me and women I like. So that seems to be the theme. Switching it over to them liking me perhaps? Actually they did both like me, the one from a few nights ago was a logistics situation. I though it was a limitation that wasn’t able to be overcome. The one from last night was an old schoolmate. Over the years I certainly had a chance but due to my own perceived limitations I never asked her out. Now it seems she found her lifemate. So the dream I think was dealing with those limitations.

I also notice my talking and writing isn’t what it could be. Sometimes I miss words or letters, sometimes even when I talk I get mixed up and misspeak. I think my brain is going faster so I’m steps ahead. Limitless would help this.

I still sleep maybe 8 hours on average. I used to be a 9 hour sleeper. Can’t really do naps either. So Limitless might get called up from the bullpen next cycle. It still has hormone balancing and I think the executive functioning is my biggest hold back. Well, it’s just mental energy mainly and if I have that and executive functioning at a high level, that’s just going to benefit my whole life.

I’m feeling the energy draw of Paragon, maybe more so since I don’t have KB in my stack anymore. Plus the added benefit of helping with meditation in Limitless will help me got get some of that deep rest, which will be of great benefit.

I also do not want to do a 3 title stack with a custom. So Limitless is looking more attractive and is going to be most beneficial for me. I’ve never had a problem with exercise motivation, it’s just been part of my life. I also know that when I don’t exercise it’s so hard to get back into it after a long layoff. So that’s what keeps me sticking with it. It’s the use it or lose it idea.

I did the pre-workout again today and ate an hour after. I don’t think it’s the right one for me. I would get more of a boost from 150mg caffeine by itself. So there might be an ingredient or combo in this that just doesn’t gel with my physiology, at least in terms of the pure energy benefits I’m after.

I’ve also realized that my ex actually did like me. But she was pushing me away. She was one of those ones into serial killers. She needed drama. When I finally told her off then she hit the switch and became nice and submissive. I didn’t want that. I’ve had plenty of women like me and generally they weren’t into drama like that. So if a woman wants a guy who’s gonna beat her up and cheat on her so she can have her emotions and stay stimulated, that’s gonna be a no from me. lol. It took me awhile to realize that, after my anger and hurt finally passed. It just wasn’t worth it to me. That’s why I’ll probably always have Heartsong on my radar until I finally use it and find someone who fits best with me, and what I desire from a relationship. Sometimes I think that’s not out there, but I think it is and with Heartsong, I think it’s certainly possible.From what I could tell my ex actually came from a good home and family. Her parents were good to her and she loved them. Her parents were one of those 40 year marriages or something like that. I guess it seems like with the social programming out there, there’s lots of people who just don’t date anymore. But again, I still think the right situation is out there for me, but it starts within. :slight_smile:

End of night:

No major love bomb feel goods today. I think DRLD is walking in front lately. Which is also great. Removing those limitations. Nothing major in terms of recon. Just some slight low mood along with some insights and cool dreams.

So the LBFH/DRLD combo is still a winner. It seems to be on the right track hitting on what I need to work on as far as relationships and my own limitations in regards to those.

Day 12: No listening.

More cool dreams last night. Similar to the last couple of nights. I just don’t remember anything of them at all though.

Feeling a little playful and in a good mood today.

Not as tired so far today.

I had an idea, I checked my preworkout and the caffeine is from green coffee bean extract. I checked my other caffeine and it’s a different form trademarked as innovatea, it actually comes from tea leaves. So a tea caffeine hits me better than a green coffee bean caffeine. That’s interesting. It’s just that now I can’t find this innovatea ingredient anymore.

Kind of getting a feel for how this is working. I’ll get some of those love bomb days moments and at other times I’ll also get the lower moods. Yesterday I was talking monotone at one point. Tonight I realized that’s just the ebb and flow of the limits being destroyed and then reaching back into that LBFH. All part of the process. So I will stick with 3 mins LBFH/DRLD custom on the next listen as well. No major recon. I’m thinking I might need 3 listens per listening time to make sure things are worked out before upping to 5 mins.

I definitely plan on Limitless next cycle. That will boost just about everything for me. Time to learn and apply those learnings, get more practical. I’d definitely like to boost my income from something other than a job where I trade time for money.

4 months with Paragon was great. I overcame the issues I wanted to. Got me back in the game with my physical fitness program.

Day 13: 15 mins Paragon.

Woke up just feeling a little lighter today. Must have dropped some more limits.

I’m gonna try 5 mins LBFH/DRLD next listen. Still no major or long lasting recon. Just very short discomfort at times if anything. Like a low mood, haven’t had much or any anxiety since the last lil bit came up a few days ago.

I’m really looking forward to going back through some courses while on Limitless. I seemed to have blocks to some of the questions. I’ve always had imagination and brains but I think I shut them off because I didn’t want to stand out. People can get jealous and shady if you’re happy and creative and all that, at least it used to seem that way. Those gifts belong to everyone, everyone has them but if they can’t get out the program then they wanted to bring down anyone who did. So it’s the next step to breaking out of hermit mode and getting back to magic and abundance.

Like those questions you see, if you already had what you wanted, what would you do? If you had the million dollars what would you do? Just typing it right now seems more free just to explore imagination. Things seem to be flowing and ideas actually come up. So it must have been a limiting thought. Now I can entertain such questions, I just have to build that new habit.

after work:

A couple days ago I looked at this chick’s pictures. The one who I wanted to ask out until I got ghosted, because she already has her forever partner. So I looked at her photos and I felt good because I’m actually better looking that her man. So any reasons I never got the chicks I wanted had more to do with my own perceived limitations than anything.

Also the last couple nights of work, I got done working and was a lil sad/depressed. Tonight it hit me that if I had to guess I’d say I’m focused at work and don’t need to think. Just do my work. Then when I’m done and going home, I’m going back to my life of limitation. At least that’s what it was up until now.

So I’m going to stick with 3 minutes of LBFH/DRLD next cycle. I think I’m still at a sweet spot.

end of night:

I am probably going to take Ascension for a spin. I already have it in my downloads, never used it. I am self employed and was under the impression that I wouldn’t have to file, because I was told somebody else didn’t have to file because they made under a certain number. Well I did too, but it turns out it’s different for self income. So I did fail in taking someone’s advice who doesn’t really know. Well, we both got to find out they’re wrong. Luckily, not a big deal this time. And it’s a good mistake to make now before I’m making lots of money. It’s a reminder to make sure I know what’s what and to keep the finances in check and know what’s what.

So I’ll have to cut back on all spending until I have an exact number of what I’m gonna be paying in April. I expect it won’t be much but I’ll still have to budget for it. Which makes it a perfect time to run Ascension. It has body shifting and will help me stay disciplined with working out. It’ll also have me re-examining things and blasting through more limitations. Seeing where I can do better and what I can make work for me.

Day 14: No listening.

1 week left of this cycle.

I think I may have to go with Primal next cycle, it’s the most updated Alpha in my bag. Ascension will wait until update. I think I’ll benefit much more from the social side of

Primal this time around. And I’ve seen reports of it helping with conversation and social calibration. I can definitely build on the increased social calibration I’ve been experiencing the last few cycles. I think being off Paragon will give me some of that brain juice back as well. So even though it’s not Limitless which was my plan, it’s still gonna be a great run.

———

I was taking my laundry basket upstairs and i walked into the kitchen. That was probably out of habit since it was morning and i always go to the microwave to make tea. Then i had another moment where my brain was faster than my talking. So I’m going to consider Limitless the best investment in myself right now. I’m just gonna go for it. I’m sure the benefits will pay for itself. Doing some self study personal development courses is gonna be great. The problem solving and social aspects will be tremendous. So it’s just the biggest bang for my buck. Limitless it is.

I’m feeling freer in that I feel like I kinda want to livestream. Limitless is the first step, then I could test out Stark if I really feel like that’s something I want to try out.

Last couple days I’ve been having moments of wishing I had friends again. The people I do talk to were busy I guess and weren’t getting back to me. When I’m on Limitless that won’t matter because I’ll be on task learning. I’m really looking forward to that again.

end of night:

my shoulder has a little pain. I think from pushups and probably from my job. I tend to use the one arm to vacuum. So it looks like I will have to go back to wall pushups after all. Also will be working on those rotator cuffs to fix any imbalances. I was just getting happy with my progress and increasing reps on pushups. But since I don’t like time off due to injury, it’s my next area I gotta go back and build from the ground up. Elbow pain has been gone for maybe a month now. I didn’t even keep up the exercises for it. I think starting the pushups helped it by strengthening the triceps and tendons.

Another cool thing was that I didn’t wear any of my support shirts or shorts to work this weekend. My glutes were sore from all the bending down to pick things up. It was a good sign that my muscles are being retrained properly, so the glutes are doing the work instead of being sore in my lower back.

Day 15: 3 mins LBFH/DRLD custom.

Woke up from a dream where I was in a work situation. It was kind of like my mind pulled together all these different things, so it wasn’t like a place I actually worked or the people. It seems like it was finally breaking down some work traumas maybe. Just dealing with the shittiness of people. People were just being dicks so instead of not saying anything I just gave it back and wasn’t worried about getting fired. But I wasn’t gonna back down and made it funny. And then I realized I’d made a mistake with my work so I went to go find a supervisor and ask for help.


I was out to the store. I noticed some people are just open to my energy. Like you can drive by and you look at them and they look back and are giving those friendly signals. Like friend vibes.

I also noticed as I was walking around the store that I felt this sense of freedom, yet I wasn’t quite comfortable with it. Maybe part of me still holding on to the old habits and insecurities. So I’d call that some recon.

I’ve still had some urges that get me to wish I was further along in my journey. Further along to where I was back on a seduction title. I’ve made some moves and nothing’s panned out yet. But I’m also not caring about getting denied or making moves. I also move on like instantly, if a woman is not interested, I just move on. I won’t waste my time or energy.

If Ascension was updated I might go for that because it seems to be more well rounded. But I’m looking forward to Limitless next cycle. That will be just as good for me. It will be a matter of me getting back into learning and using that knowledge to better my life. Also will be happy to start up a meditation practice again. I’m out of practice. At any rate, it’s the next piece to my ever strengthening foundation.

End of night:

I started listening to How to Win Friends and Influence People. I think this should be required reading in school. I read it once because a few people said it was their favorite book, and it still comes up occasionally to this day. I’ll be going through it 10 times and it will stay on my books I go through every year. I actually think it’s better than Think and Grow rich, another highly recommended book. Even millionaires who say they don’t believe in that book still say they read it (Think and Grow Rich) like 10 times. I read that one once too. I like The Science of Getting Rich more though. But the book that finally had me saving and a little investing was The Richest Man in Babylon. I think it was last year I had that book on repeat for Jan/Feb.

Day 16: No listening.

I had a bunch of cool dreams again. Dealing with women. Lots of limitations must be clearing up for me around that topic.

Normally I like to finish a cycle with 15 mins. But I’m only gonna do my last listen with 7 mins of LBFH/DRLD custom.

Evening:

Feeling a little restless. Sore but I gotta do a light workout anyway. Restless because I wish I had reliable good friends to talk to. The thing about a small circle is that, well, if they’re busy they’re busy. So that has me looking forward to having Limitless in the mix. I’ll put that increased brainpower to good use, reading, learning studying. When i do have downtime I’m sure I’ll be meditating or letting go more. I’ll be more focused and just have more juice to do it with.

Also have been slightly cranky at times today. Probably ready for that 5 day break with no listening. I don’t think caffeine is the answer for me, for more energy boost. I don’t want to rely on it. So Limitless will give me new avenues and ideas on that as well. Meditation could be the answer, actually.

Physical: I haven’t done pushups this week. I’m taking the week off. Focusing on shoulder rotators this week. Next week I’ll try the wall pushups for warmup and find out if I can just do some heavy shoulder press variation instead. That would also keep up the strength work for my triceps, which seems to be the key to keeping the elbow pain away. I can throw and punch without pain. It’s just that it wouldn’t develop my muscles like pushups will. I was definitely enjoying the better looking midsection.

end of night:

I’m wishing I didn’t have to choose between Limitless and Spartan. But Limitless is gonna win. We’ll see how 4 cycles go. LBFH/DRLD is gonna stay for 12 cycles. I’m just gonna stick to that one this year.

Skimmed through the Limitless thread again. Has reignited my enthusiasm. Workout motivation has never been a problem for me. I’ll continue to take it slow and listen to my body. Limitless has some storytelling component and reading, all kind of goodies. I’ll make great use of my downtime, in fact I may have less downtime, no more wishing I was out with friends who had time. I won’t have time, I’ll be learning and working towards all my goals!

Day 17: 15 mins Paragon.

The dreams have come back. I remember them when I wake up but they fade away. I don’t recall them now. But vivid dreams like nightly.

Really ready to get to Limitless. 10 days til new cycle.

Day 18: no listening.

I was able to get like 10 hours of sleep. Looots of dreams. I don’t remember them again.

I still feel like I got behind everybody in terms of titles. I was on healing when the new updates were coming out. So nobody that I see is doing Limitless. The thread has kind of died out for now so once again, I’ll be on my own. Maybe it’s better that way. But it seems like many of the titles I run the threads have died out already, lol. But it just gets me to be more present with my own experience because that’s really all I’ve got anyway.

I’ve noticed at time through the day lately, that I seem to be doing some emotional releasing on the unconscious level. Like yesterday I noticed that my eyes were very slightly wanting to tear up, but I didn’t feel like crying. Right now I’ve been having feelings come up about the ex, but I’m not really attached to them anymore. Limits being destroyed.

Lol. I’m having a lot of that ex stuff come up today. It actually has me seriously considering just saying screw it and trying 30 seconds of Heartsong next cycle, for the whole cycle.

Haha! Yep, I’m just gonna go for HS finally. If I don’t it seems like those issues will still be there surfacing during Limitless. Getting that junk out of the way will really free some more life force.

Day 19: 5 mins LBFH/DRLD custom.

Went with 5 mins for my last listening of the custom, this cycle. One more day with Paragon then I start my 5 days off.

I’m looking forward to HB. Really gonna get to the title I been putting off since it came out. I’m just ready for the healing. And I saw somebody report that the self love healing goes deeper than regular LB. Since I’m on LBFH/DRLD custom, I’m gonna take it slow for sure. Planning to start off with 1 minute.

Day 20: No listening.

Got some killer back pain last night after work. It’s way up high. I’ve never had pain that are of my back before. I was doing some shoulder exercises with a band. That’s actually the are that might be sore. But I hadn’t done any of that since wednesday.

Then 2 days later it hits like back pain? I guess it’s possible. I’ve never done those exercises. That’s why I like to take things slow when it comes to working out.

But yea I’m not 100% sure what the cause was. When I would lay down at times it would just tighten up and hurt like heck. Finally I started letting go and the tension went away enough to fall asleep eventually.

But now today, walking around it kind of tightens and hurts and I make a little sound, lol. So it’s better but I’m hoping it’s not sore again after work. Took some aspirin and put some pain relief cream on it, to hopefully make work a little less painful today.

I was doing band pull apart holds and then going through the motion like I’m doing pushups or bench pressing, just standing up. So that is where the pain is. I used a light band. Did 25 reps on monday. Then I only did 5 reps Tues and Wed, and just took the rest of the week off. I was sore but not in the back at all. It wasn’t like I was straining myself either. But it was a new exercise to hopefully take care of the shoulder pain so I can keep doing pushups.

Well I guess I did 25 reps on wed. I did 5 of the band pull apart hold things. Then I do like five different variations for 5 reps each. And the muscle soreness hits two days later? Though I’ve had that recently as well. I never had muscle soreness just show up days later rather than the next day. But could be a part of getting a lil older.

I’m feeling pretty good despite being tired from being up from the back pain. Feeling like maybe Limitless is the way to go. I got 5 days off but in any even I’d be okay with doing a coin toss to make my final decision- Limitless or HS. I am feeling that confidence to meet a special lady. So HS still seems the way to go. I think any HS healing would be of most benefit. I could definitely use some junk clearing to get clear on what I really want. I don’t have one woman that I’m into these days. At times my attractions drops off for certain women.

Evening:

Work went fine. No back pain at all, zero. I got home and layed down to do my 5 minutes of square breathing. Well, the painful back spasm situation is back. It doesn’t feel like anything with the structural of my back. So I can only assume possible strained or pulled muscle. I had a pulled muscle about a month ago at work in the same area but it didn’t really bother me.

I decided to listen to Paragon for 30 seconds while waiting for the aspirin to kick in again. I’m expecting a painful night of sleeping. At least when I try to move. It will just tighten up and hurt for a second when I’m laying down and move in the wrong position. I can lay on my side, but I do listen to a guided meditation and I lay on my back for that. Maybe I’ll try it sitting down before bed tonight.

At this rate I’m planning to continue Paragon at 30 seconds next cycle. I get to listen to 15 minutes tomorrow and then it’s 5 days without it. I wouldn’t expect the painful back to last that long though. Not sure what to do about exercising now. I can walk but I don’t want to stretch or aggravate the back. Another unplanned few days off again, possibly. This seeming misfortune is also making a case for Spartan Apex, but I wonder if I’d get recon if I have to take a week off working out.

End of night: I think the Peaters as they’re called got me on one. I was doing aspirin 3x a week on the days I work. I think it has irritated my stomach and caused me some diarrhea for the last week. So I’m stopping the aspirin. The Peaters are the guys who do things like the honey diet and eat large amounts of sugar and still lose weight because it raises the metabolism or something. So like, coffee and aspirin are some of their things. They also do coconut oil with the sugar since it digests kinda like a sugar. Nothing with the sugar just sugar or with coconut oil.

So I tried out the aspirin, 3x a week. For me, I think I need to drop it. Only use it when I need for like pain or headache. I couldn’t figure it out this week and I think I finally found the culprit.

The back spasms thrown me for a loop. Like a month ago I had a pulled muscle or strain in the same area. But It really didn’t bother me at all. I was still able to work out. So maybe starting the new shoulder exercises have irritated it again. I was also hitting the lats and chest with some band work too I forgot about. But didn’t not bother me at the time.

Day 21: 15 mins of Paragon.

After dealing with pain once again. I’m going to stick with my stack as is. I will just let LBFH/DRLD be the main stage. I’ll drop Paragon to 30 seconds. I’ll also listen to both titles on listening days.

I’m still up. Haven’t slept yet. My back is fine if I lay on my left side. But it does take quite awhile for the tension to drop away. Until then it’s like I have to hold whatever position I’m in because any slight movement gets that spasm and pain. But after I get relaxed and released I feel like I normal, until I try to lay on my back or roll over to my right side. But movement frees up really well, just takes awhile. I dunno why I decided to get up again. I went to the bathroom and am sitting down. I guess it’s the idea that I’m not free to move however I want without pain when I’m in bed. But sitting and standing are fine.

A few weeks ago I also had pain in the right shoulder/same side. It was from I guess tossing and turning in my sleep. Like when you sleep on your neck wrong and your neck is sore the next day. I still haven’t nailed down a cause or a cure yet for this round of pain.Best guess is a strain or pulled muscle. But it only hurts when laying down and there wasn’t any moment where I was like I hurt myself. Still seems like it could be a reaggravated strain from a month ago that hasn’t bothered me much since. Hopefully I don’t have to take days off again. I can work but not sure about exercise yet.

waking up after sleep:

The painful spasms are gone! It was like waking up to a mini miracle. I would rate my pain at zero. There’s some residual ever so slight but as far as painful spasms when I’m laying down, all gone!

I’m still planning to go one more cycle without changing or adding. Just for good measure.

Now if we can just get rid of this week long diarrhea that was happening after every time I eat. We are in business. Last night that was giving signs that that was coming to a close too.

I guess I spoke too soon. There was no pain rolling over onto my back or right side when I woke up. No pain walking. Then I decided to lay in my recliner to listen to my loop of Paragon just now. It seems that may have irritated it again. I was feeling like I could do my workout again. Now, I might have to take it easy for another day. But as far as it being as painful as it was, it’s way down as long as I still don’t lay down I guess.

Went to the store got home. Was walking down stairs and my knee had a lil strain. I went three months without physical setbacks and pains. So hopefully it doesn’t get any worse. I definitely need my body so I can go to work. Luckily it’s a day off so I guess it’s a rest day. I might just go for Spartan Apex, run it 30 seconds with Paragon on at 30 seconds. The most immediate need is looking like physical once again.

Now tonight I’m feeling like I want to meet a special lady. So I guess I moved on from wishing I had friends. This is a bit new. So it’s a nice change of pace. I gotta get my body back in good condition and then see about making money first, those seem like the most practical things. Still some nice progress in my book. I can tell I’m a lot freer at times in terms of myself and people.

Tried to take a nap for about an hour. Sitting up with some pillows for my head, airplane style. In a pretty good mood. I might try to do my Foundation Training later.

Been wearing my knee support all day. No more knee issues. But maybe it was a strain in the tibialis on front of the shin. Now my I’m having a slight pain there this evening. That was the area 3 months ago I had this crazy pain that one time. So maybe we’re still healing that up. I never got back to training the tibs much since then. I’m gonna invest in some calf sleeves for extra support.

End of night:

Back is not ready to get back to Foundation Training. My knees are feeling a little cranky. Was feeling like I had some subconscious releasing again. Maybe I could use a chiropractic adjustment but I don’t have the money for that. Looks like I might be taking a week off exercising. I did walk for 10 mins. I guess I will be doing a lot of conscious releasing the next few days. An excuse for me to start up some sort of mental visualization practice/meditation. Yea definitely a low mood situation considering the circumstances.

I do have this self traction device I picked up on a good deal. I used it two days ago. Went fine. So I’m gonna do that for five minutes then get to bed.

I did 15 minutes because there was no pain. I have no instructions and I think it’s like a 15-20 minute thing. Felt good. When I was done my back where it wasn’t spasming had some new input. So it wasn’t sure it was like i dunno what to do, do we spasm or what? Well it did slightly but I think it’s gonna help. Might be my new pre bed ritual. Kinda like an inversion table but more user friendly. This one you kneel down and let gravity do the work. So it’s more gentle and slow.

Day 1 of 5: No listening.

I woke up today. Could move around freely. So I took the pillow out from the right side of my back. Laid on my back pain free. Rolled to the right, pain free. Then I got up, stood up. Tried to bend over as if to touch my toes, pain free! That’s what kept me from doing my Foundation Training last night. So now we’re back!

My right shoulder is a little sore today. My knees are feeling fine. I think it might all be connected. The knees, the back, shoulder etc. Foundation Training seems to be the best exercise program for me. I’ve been doing mobility daily no matter what. Also walking. I’m just not sure what else I can do. I’m planning to run through the 6 week Foundation Training program again. It’s tough but I think that’s a good thing. I can only get better. It’s definitely like a full workout for me. I will add side planks and maybe wall sits and quad extensions and work the tibs as accessory work. I think I’m going to add in some isometric exercises for the ankles since I haven’t gotten back to a full knee program. That’s been taking awhile.

The self traction device might be a game changer. I’ll make that a regular part of my routine. Maybe 4-5x a week. I can do that on weekends after work since it’s not energy demanding.

Not quite out of the woodwork. I just now had a little pain the lower back now. Mood is more LBFH tho. I feel optimistic that I’ll get through it once again and get back to being strong and mobile.

Had to do some self adjustments for the sacroiliac, the hips. Now I’m a little sore there. But I think it’s just from the slight adjustments. 2 more days I should be good as new. I’ll just keep doing the self adjustments for the next day or two then get back to Foundation Training. I’m not sure about laying on the ground yet and trying to do anything. I might go hands and knees though, at least get some core work with the crawl planks.

I’m breaking the habit of laying down if I’m not working or exercising. It used to be sitting at work all day was thought to be the cause of my every 3 month chiro visits. Now I think it’s laying down too much. If I’m home and not working out there’s just not much to do and I probably spend too much time scrolling. I was looking forward to Limitless so I could be studying. But I might try to do more of that anyway. I never meditated sitting down or releasing sitting down. So I’ll have to build that habit.

I don’t have comfortable chairs though. I have my computer chair and another office type chair. So I think that’s why I don’t sit. I have an anti-gravity chair that I’d like to use more, just my back doesn’t like it too much right now.

I don’t like sitting all day either. I walked for like 10 minutes today. Had a slight nerve pain in my left hammy so I stopped. I’ll try another 10 minutes soon before work. Plan on popping some tylenol and some pain cream. Feeling kind of like I had a good workout, body kind of sore but I haven’t worked out since Friday. Weekends are my longest work days though so that’s like a workout too. I would love to be able to stretch and do mobility tho.

I’ll have to do every other day on the self traction device. That’s actually kind of a workout on the body.

End of night: work went pretty good. I’ve been waking up like 2 hours later because I stay up later because of the back pain.

So since I didn’t work out today, I took my creatine way later. I took it before work an hour after my last meal of the day. I also took my agmatine sulfate with it. I also remembered that I hadn’t taken my alpha-gpc so I took that too. A couple days ago I was reading on alpha-gpc. Somebody said it didn’t interfere with sleep so I took it tonight. I’m thinking the trick really is to take it right before physical activity. I was focused and dialed in.

More mindful of my body of course. I was able to finish in the same time just not wanting to move like I normally do. And now since I’ve gotten home I feel like it’s bed time.

So I learned something. If I take alpha-gpc anytime other than before physical activity it just seems like a waste. I was able to focus on my audio book, How to Win Friends and Influence People. I still wish it was a book given to us to read way back in school.

They could’ve said this book will take you farther than any other book, just read it and read it again and again. I think had I learned and mastered these principles I would have gone way further in life. I think my friends all would have dropped off anyway, but it wouldn’t matter. I would have had career success and every other kind of success anyway. Maybe it would’ve rubbed off on my friends, and if they’d read it and learned it too, I really see us living in a different world.

It’s also helping me piece together my other favorite books. It’s giving me some format to put in other things I’ve learned as well. I haven’t mastered the material by any means but it’s helping me make sense of other things I’ve studied but never had a plan of implementation for. It’s just a really good framework.

Day 2 of 5 no listening.

Was up late again making bathroom trips. But I finally nailed it down what was causing this. I’ve been taking this multi-collagen before work. And I hadn’t taken it saturday or sunday so I was fine for two days monday and tuesday. Til after work. So this multi-collagen doesn’t work for me. I also started beef gelatin at the same time but that doesn’t send me to the bathroom. So I’ll stop the multi-collagen immediately.

Woke up no soreness or spasms in the back. Just my hips are sore from the self isometric adjustments yesterday. I got a good crack when I did the twist on a chair and I should be good as new in a day or two.

My knees might be slightly cranky. So I’ll keep wearing the supports.

So I’ve mostly solved the case on my issues. I just need to find some exercises that are gonna keep my knees healthy. May try simple things with ankle weights and isometrics.

I think after I got my back adjusted and did the self traction device the other night, I have some increased energy flow. Like sensations I’d mention if I was still on KB.

I was eating dinner. I realized that oh yea, recovering from pain and injury is energy intensive. No wonder I feel sore and I haven’t actually been working out. I’m still not happy about the setback. I hadn’t gotten to 5 minutes of trampoline hopping yet. But I felt good. I’ll just have to prioritize the core once again, and since I don’t have too much pride anymore, I’ll see what some beginner knee pain exercises are. I want to do more boxing type workouts if anything. I mean I don’t need to increase my vertical jump but I always wanted to.

End of night:

Just did some rehab. I’m kind of making it up as I go. Including some of my mobility that I can do and adding other things. A couple light stretches and I’m going to finish with the self traction device now. I actually feel good after that light work. I also walked 20 minutes.

So if anything it’s just what I need to do to get my body back in shape. It’s also helping me to be mindful, slower movements focusing on movement and rep quality. Not doing anything that causes pain. I think I’ll be back to Foundation Training next week for sure.

Day 3 of 5 no listening.

My hip is still sore and my mid back. Just lingering soreness from the adjustment and the mid back is from the spasms. I think Monday I’ll be pain free for sure.

My knees don’t like heavy steps. So I have to be more mindful of how I walk. A little more gentle using those muscles for the support and shock absorbtion. I got humbled last night doing my knee pain stuff.

No weights just like quad sets, extending the leg and flexing the quads for time. Some ankle movements and unweighted quad extensions and hamstring curls. But those are exercises I don’t do at all. I can tell they’ll be good because I felt better after them. But I’m not even doing like a million reps. That just shows me those are what I need to work on for now. I even did some standing air pushups! The focus being on the back muscles for the pull, to warm-up and get rid of that shoulder pain from doing pushups. Cranked out a hundred reps of standing twists and side bends. Just to get some core work and blood moving through there. Just slow controlled stuff that I could do every day or do as micro workouts during the day.

I was talking with one of the people I chat with online. But they’re kind of a complainer and one of those who think they need to change the world. But complaining is their action for that. They have a belief and if yours is different well you’re racist of course, lol. I did get mad and shot back at them. But the anger passed quickly. I still need to master How To Win Friends and Influence People. At the same time there are just people we don’t need to have in our lives. The people I let in my life are people I accept unconditionally but it’s rare that that’s extended by others, at least up until now it’s been my experience!

So I think I’m going to let this person drop off my social radar. Luckily I have solitude and I think that’s helping to get me to start focusing on studying more and making good use of my time. I actually kind of prefer solitude. I just saw a post and someone said like it wasn’t fun at first but now they can be social when they want and their solitude keeps them living in a bubble of heaven, lol.

It also makes me wish I had a more right people oriented title in my stack. Like Inner Circle, Heart Song. Even Chosen but I just don’t want to lead people, I’d rather they lead themselves. I do have You Are Not Alone, in my custom. I’m still waiting on those results.

Dragon Reborn Limit Destroyer says it has scripting to help detach and protect your energy from toxic influences and people, and LBFH has a light protection aura. My first custom I had a bunch of those kind of modules in it. I had no friends or close people. I think DRLD/LBFH is the better balance. I still get to see those who appreciate my energy and well I still get to more consciously remove myself from the negative influences and people.

I offered to give my hard copy of How To Win Friends and Influence People book to this person who complains. Haven’t heard back yet, lol. I find that lots of people want to be told what to do, yet they want to tell the world how to live. They could really use some of that Alchemist Singularity and all the great titles at subliminal club, but I also have found that they not open to that either. lol.

I would love to add a 3rd title but I can’t tell I’m slightly reconny at times. So it’s best to stay as is for another cycle and check back in.

The person did not take me up on my offer of giving them my book. They don’t like reading in English. Also will not pry themselves loose from the victim, helpless mentality. But I also realize it may be a time waste on both of us, I cannot solve his problems with the world, and his complaining does not serve me. Other than for entertainment, which doesn’t progress me further in the life I’d like to live.

Now that I’m doing my rehab training. I realized my own mis steps in dealing with other people. I can see his side of the story. A friend I had to move on from because he couldn’t see my point of view. But I can see now that he probably felt the same. That I was complaining. He was telling me the same kinds of things.

Like I should tell them, as in the people who can do something about it. From my point of view I was just confiding in an old friend. But he has his own job and family and yea, we parted ways.

That was also further back in my journey when I was still overcoming things, when I finally realized that waiting on others to change or to see the truth, wasn’t gonna happen. I had to walk away. I didn’t like that, but nowadays I’m okay with it. I think it’s better to be alone without any others input, especially when they don’t have much empathy either. I guess I didn’t understand it because I was struggling with being like others, when I looked around I saw them complaining and gossiping. Yet it didnt’ go over well when I did the same. So I still don’t and stay away from those who do.

End of night:

Lower mood at work. My knees were hurting when I went down the steps today. Felt like tendons. So I worked slow and wasn’t moving like I like to again. But I did get work done without any pain. Being fit and moving well are important to me and was feeling a little disheartened. I was probably also a little lower energy because I did my rehab again. It actually feels like it’s helping.

I’ll just have to keep doing it daily and take it slow. I can lay on my back or roll to my side pain free again. So just a matter of time until I’m back to normal. I don’t know why or how my knee tendons decided to get a little painful same time as my back. 3 months ago was the first time and now once again it’s been both same time. But my rehab routine is helping. I’ll definitely add the ankle weights as I can do more reps. Crazy how the simplest things can be challenging.

Day 4 of 5 no listening.

Woke up and looked outside and my car has a flat tire. I was feeling pretty good in the inner spaciousness since last night. But I was up almost all night again. Have to run to the bathroom for a few nights really messed with my sleep schedule. So I woke up pretty late today.

So I’ll start my day with some fresh air I guess.

I think I’m gonna stop taking the beef gelatin as well. My bowels haven’t returned to normal yet. So maybe it’s just not for me. That’s the only new thing I’ve added in my diet since this problem started. Never had a problem with marshmallows or gummy snacks. Possibly the large amounts aren’t for me.

I’d like to have some ideas on consciously guiding You Are Not Alone. Still haven’t had results, well that are apparent to me. No new people that I click with. I was looking at some people I used to absolutely love, and there’s just no connection there. They’re in their own worlds. There’s no space. And since I got into some inner space last night and it was so nice. It was these words coming real for me, and I guess maybe I’ll just rededicate to that inner space.

“You will discover that the more you delight in the inner life, the less you feel drawn to external things. In consequence, the mind becomes so well nourished with the right kind of food that at any moment the realization of its identity with the Self may occur.” -Anandamayi Ma

I also did some releasing letting go around self love tonight. I hadn’t done that in awhile. Last night I was doing the self inquiry and was just facing things and that’s how I got into the inner spaciousness. Today it wasn’t clicking again, since I was making extra bathroom visits. So I went to letting go to clear some stuff up again.

Day 5 of 5 no listening.

Tomorrow is 15 mins Paragon.

It will be cycle 5 of Paragon. Cycle 3 (this round) of LBFH/DRLD custom. Still toying with the idea of 30 seconds AS 30 seconds a week or every listening day.

I woke up from a dream this am. I was in like a jail or something and there were other people. I think we were working on some fear limitations. I mean my unconscious.

AS could get a 30 second slot because I just skimmed over the description again, it says it’s about shattering limits. Since DRLD is in my custom, it might give a little juice to my stack.

I got my plan. It came to me that I may as well stick to my two titles. The change being that I’ll start listening to Paragon for 30 seconds on the same days as LBFH/DRLD custom.

Felt really good at my first job today. My cardio is lacking though. It’s been a week of no cardio and low intensity rehab exercise. When I get back to Foundation Training that actually helps build my stamina up though. I’ve still been walking 20 minutes a day but low intensity.
