Great advise from @Lion above, and I see the same things as him.
The way I look at subliminals is like a coach, a coach that I have chosen and decide to put my faith in. I have had many in-person coaches in my self-development journey and can say without a shadow of a doubt that Subclub has been by far the most influential in my life.
Back in the days I was an expert at resisting to do what my coaches were telling me, and that comes from me growing up and never wanting advise because I had adopted the firm belief that I can do everything myself⌠but the question I started asking myself was; why do I pay for expensive coaches if I refuse to listen to their advise? They had the knowledge and life that I wanted⌠The truth is that I was scared of change!
To truly change the old you must die, but I wanted what I did not have and thought that I could still be the same, but the world does not work that way. But the good thing is, by beginning to take action, no matter how small, it becomes a habit and it starts snowballing and will feel completely normal after a while.
Another thing about subliminals is that it is just that, input⌠but you always have the choice to reject it, and here is where faith comes in⌠as I said before why hire a coach and then not listen to the advice? That is why journaling is such a good tool, and it is always You that do everything in your life, but when you start note things that usually do not happen or they happen more and more often, you can come to the conclusion that it is because of the push from my coach(subliminals.)
If I were you I would change the way I word it. Instead of saying; I donât know if this is me or the subliminal⌠I would word everything as being me, but the things I notice that stands out is still me but with the help of the suggestions from the subliminal.
Letâs say you are in school and your teacher teaches you how solve a certain equation, and later on you passed the exam with the knowledge you learned from that teacher⌠it was still you who had to learn this equation with the help of the teacher, and it is you who sat down and took the test, it was your hand on the pen and not the teachers handâŚ
The subliminal is only a positive influence and it is urging you in the direction that fits you and in line with the scope of objectives of that subliminal. Irritation is a sure sign that these suggestions are helping you to a new way of seeing things, and the more you fight it, the worse the reconciliation will be. Trust me⌠I do that a lot still on subliminals. So what is important is to increase your awareness on when this is happening and start to baby-step things in the right direction.
I believe in you and you can do this and I know a lot of us on this forum do as well. Change hurts but its only temporary and well worth it in the end. Now try to put some faith into your subliminal
All the people on this forum that has great results believes that subliminals work, at least to some degree.
Hope this helps and keep going, you have been very patient and stuck to what you started and I can promise you that changes has been happening, thatâs what @Lion just showed you, but maybe not to the point where it starts to show on the outside yet. It is a marathon not a sprint, consistency wins the race
