Day 20: No listening
Woke up really early for me. 11am, after not falling asleep until around 4am. So I was up later but awake earlier. Feeling fine so far. I think I’ll stick with noon as the latest I’ll let myself sleep. That should keep me on track with falling asleep a little earlier. I think I had trouble with getting on track after the time change, because 11am is 10am all winter. I think 11am is a good wake up time.
My back is sore. Moving chairs and bending over at work yesterday when it was still sore from traction. I guess it’s better than the pain of being hurt. I haven’t kept up on the self traction because it takes like 15 mins and I don’t think I need that much. But the downside is when I do need it I might be sore for a few days. So I may just do it for like 5 minutes 3 times a week just for a little stretch and maintenance. Still planning to work out. Gonna do my walk now.
I probably need to be more active when I’m not working or working out. Still mostly lounging. But I dont’ know what else I’d do. Today I did feel like I want to start reading a new book. I finished The Energy of Money, I think it’s a great book. The most benefit would come from doing all the exercises in that book. I just don’t feel like it’s the time for me. I probably need to get more basic. I just picked up a cheap copy of I Will Teach You To Be Rich, by Ramit Sethi, and that book definitely seems like it’s for somebody, who already has money coming in. It’s about setting up accounts and doing the numbers and things like that.
The thing is it seems like when I get inspired/motivated to work on some issue, it’s when I’m at work. But by the time I’m at home where I could work on it, that spark just isn’t there anymore. Like right now I’d rather start a new book because doing inner work or working on limiting beliefs and old emotions, just doesn’t seem to be flowing. That’s also where just getting a workout in can help, I think.
So I guess a little bit of progress if anything. I feel like I should get moving and take some action, but I don’t know what. My thinking is if I find the right info or book, to spark some sort of fire or lightbulb moment.
I have found some old memories surfacing. Like in the last couple of days I was feeling those good feelings of when I had say a best friend, from my high school days. There wasn’t the negatives, I was just able to appreciate those good feelings again. Like yea, that was actually pretty cool.
For so long I’d been kind of stuck on those unwanted/negative past experiences with people. That was probably my biggest blocker.
I also had memories of past situations. And me just saying something. Like what I should have said to people. It’s not usually nice, but I think it’s just my way of processing some of those situations and moving past them.
Afternoon Updates
lol. I didn’t realize how much I post sometimes in my journal. Like wow, that’s a lot of stuff.
I am considering that maybe I would go even more basic with my stack. Maybe I can fit Genesis Joy in there somehow. I want the Spartan/LOS custom, but maybe LB/Genesis Joy custom would be more beneficial. I still sometimes see that maybe I could use some more of that self image work. Yet I plan on sticking with Spartan/LOS for the rest of the year.
Got my first LB/Genesis Joy custom mocked up. It’s pretty basic. Should be easier to run than LBFH/DRLD custom.
Some more crankiness coming up. I think it’s tied to now being tired after the short sleep caught up to me. I also think it’s my mental landscape changing, dumping that negativity. That’s one of the main things I like about LBFH/DRLD. Cleaning house in terms of the junk/negativity in the mental landscape.
Evening Updates
My tentative new plan is to finish 6 cycles straight of LBFH/DRLD. That’ll give me like 9-10 cycles total with it. Then I’ll take a month off, and only use Spartan/LOS for a cycle. Then I’ll bring my new LB/Genesis Joy custom on.
I could use a break from the current custom. The new custom will theoretically also be easier to run. Same direction but slightly different angle. I’m sure I could use the Genesis Joy skills for sure. Making it a custom is way more attractive than the store title is, for some reason. I just had zero interest when it came out. So maybe that’s why I should run it. The new talk about it being one of the titles to start with also interests me. Genesis Joy and one or both of the Love Bomb’s seem to be the recommended starter stack.
I was kind of ghosting my buddy. He went a couple days without replying. So I just didn’t bother messaging back. Kinda sorry I did. lol. I responded with what I thought was a funny a video, and he comes back right away with stuff about himself. He didn’t even watch the video. Like How To Win Friends and Influence People says people’s favorite topic is themselves. He is like definitely one of the extreme examples. My experience says most people at least have some basic social skills, where they know enough to not make it all about themselves. So yea, I’m not that lonely. Maybe if I myself mastered some social skills, I could nudge him in the right direction. But for now it would probably come off as me being just another person thinking I know what’s best for everyone. lol.
End of Nights
It’s just making more sense to me that my latest custom idea will be great. I feel like I could certainly make good use of the skills of Genesis Happiness. Definitely feel like I could shore up some self worth, self image issues. I think LOS will help with that tremendously. Maybe it’s just that all this time with LBFH/DRLD has me going a bit deep and LB/Genesis Joy looks like the welcomed light at the end of the tunnel. Plus I plan to add that wealth worth module in there and will have the wealth motivation module. That will be a very much welcome change, planning on just Lion IV and Total Non-Chalance for the chill alpha vibes. I think that will be a much better title for me to be on during summer, with the potential for much more people interaction. I won’t be dealing with the occasional moodiness that can come with the DRLD. I’m also planning on not including any seduction modules, so maybe that’ll also ease up on any potential recon.
So the custom idea is chill, happy, self loving, wise, alpha with a slight nudge towards the wealth arena, to get the ball rolling. lol, but we have time. I still can’t help but think I’m still going for like a Chosen/Primal Lite vibe. So maybe what I’m really after is Emperor Daddy, lol. But I just still see myself as a youthful man, certainly not someone who people think is almost 43.
TWTP and AOW aren’t so attractive for my immediate use anymore. I realize I have no need for that just yet. I’m still a free agent, so to speak. I’m not locked into a job yet and don’t plan to be. So yea, it’s all up in the air yet. I want the Primal Chosen Vibe with a touch of wealth development.
