For increasing HRV is good for taking care of your endocrine system.
Then Cordyceps and Cistanche can also increase HRV.
Did you get it in normal ZP or did you choose QTKS since it’s a one time investment?
@Jouissance I dig this setup. Ever since working all the time, freedom and expression has been big on my agenda, since I have less time, freedom, and expression. Approachability Aura, I have been considering because it’s great when people can just kick off the social part. I have work to do, I’m not always focusing on other people, although I do care about people.
If you are gonna toss in Genesis series, why not MDFY: Conscious Guidance considering Genesis series already covers so many subs and territory and replaces many modules @Jouissance . Idk if the massive scripting covering everything is in all of Genesis @AnswerGroup ? So I don’t want to give the wrong impressions. Perhaps in theory one may use Genesis: Mogul + MDFY: Conscious Guidance? (to greatly shift the subliminal in any direction).
Overall, looks badass man. Best wishes. Keep us posted.
Normal ZP
Yes! More great story tellers please!
Big Epiphany (emotions unfettered + daredevil’s boldness)
I’m rushing.
Lately, I’ve been paralyzed to inaction about working on my digital minimalism business.
Instead of enjoying the process and taking imperfect action, I’ve been paralyzed because I’m putting so much pressure on myself to find the strategy that will let me get famous as soon as I launch.
Certain ego components are coming to play - I’d rather take 2 years to start and then be an “overnight” success, compared to working for 2 years to achieve something. Makes me feel more “special.”
Realizing that has relaxed me greatly and made taking action easier.
I think great things are usually built in iterations. If you start in 2 years, how will you make sure you get feedback as soon as possible, so you can improve the “product”?
I’ve had great success lately not only with taking imperfect action but also with these key factors:
- cleaned mental and physical space which released huge amounts of energy
- taking as much action as I want, no matter how small. Goal is to cultivate enjoyment and consistency first, then, during 4-6 months (seems optimal), I’ll be slowly adding more and more (raising intensity while continuing enjoyment cultivation)
Omg my HRV hit 58.
Two weeks ago I hit my all time peak of 51.
Before that my highest ever was 38
How so?
Anybody have tips on developing a daily writing routine?
Pick an hour a day and write during that time
For the stuff behind it.
Also, out of sheer curiosity
I believe, technically, a ‘loop’ is a full 15 minute listen rather than a noun as an integer for a chosen listening time . You listened to 1/30th or 1/15th loop. lol Or is a loop defined as the amount we choose to listen per listen? I don’t know
Lol. I don’t overthink it.
One “play” is one “loop”
That “play” can be 30s - 15min, it’s still a loop to me.
Financial Win
I was fighting with the Kia Dealership for a while about my car repairs. The engine broke down, and there was a class action lawsuit that Kia lost a few years ago because they knowingly sold cars with faulty engines. My engine had the failure that was specified in the lawsuit, so, I was entitled to get all my money back, but the dealership was hounding me for mechanical records, etc, trying to find a way out of it.
I eventually got what I wanted, everything is paid for.
$7000 (Canadian Dollars) to replace my engine = 100% paid for by Kia
$400 that I paid to get my car towed = Kia gave me $400 cash to pay for that
Plus I’ll have a rental car for 2 months while they do all this. 100% paid for. It’s a 2022 volkswagen passat with a “sports mode” for faster acceleration and a freaking INCREDIBLE sound system (as I discovered today going 160km/h down the highway lol)
Newly Noticed Results
Job Seeker (in my other custom) = Turned down a job offer I had been given to recruit realtors to a brokerage. Was with great people but the money wasn’t there. Immediately after doing that, two closing offers land in front of me with YouTube personalities that I know and respect.
Radiating Health = I got a family doctor (very difficult where I live) and had an appointment, getting referred to an ADHD clinic, will probably get free counseling to learn CBT, which is an incredible mind-hack.
Synergy: Breath of the Storms = Realized the “keystone habit” (most important habit) I need to implement that will make everything else easier or unnecessary is writing daily.
Naturalizer = maybe it’s combining with freedom, but, yes, this all feels “natural” which is new to me. Subliminals are usually hard hitting for me, and sometimes feel like I’m growing so fast that I need to race to keep up. This custom is very chill, tho. Effective, but relaxed.
Hegemon, Daredevil = I’m enjoying socializing in ways that I haven’t before. Talking for the sake of talking is becoming fun. Normally, unless it’s a topic I’m passionate about, I often find conversations boring, weird but true. Not always but it’s frequent. Fun conversations have been more frequent since starting this custom.
Other modules still seem to be working but the updates would just be “still feeling ____.” See above posts for other modules effects
This would be a sick core.
I don’t know if this is a “sub” result because I don’t know what in my custom could do this… but I’ve been dominating at chess.
This week, I’ve gained 200 Blitz Elo, 100 rapid Elo, and won 4-0 against a friend who usually beats me in 6/10 games.
Just now, after the rating increase and match with my friend, I thought up a much much much better way to learn openings, and spent about 2 hours building that out.
it took an unusually high level of organization.
So I’m thinking it’s at least partially Synergy: I AM ATMAN because I’m organizing despite not “believing i’m organized”
cracks knuckles
Time to put that $50,000 Liberal Arts degree to work
Lol.
I would recommend any writer start by reading “On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft” by Stephen King alongside or followed by “The Artist’s Way” by Julia Cameron. There are many, many, many books on writing, and few of them are useful, these two are because they hit at the core of what writing is all about without all the theory fluff–that while interesting, is pretty useless until you’re well into your habit and ready to expand. You’re a busy dude, so if you don’t got time to read, I fully understand.
I don’t know what your writing goals are or why you want to write, so the following is ultra general and will help literally anyone, regardless of what their endgame with writing is.
The Daily Free Write
Time 10 minutes/day.
How
- Sit down with a pen/pencil and a notebook–alternatively, you can use a Word document.
- Start a timer for 10 minutes.
- Write without stopping for 10 solid minutes
- Repeat daily for at least 1 month. Ideally, you would repeat until armageddon, but that’s up to you.
Notes
Your goal is to write continuously, without stopping for the entire time, regardless of any mental, physical, or other distraction that may arise. No matter what, DO NOT STOP. Pay absolutely no mind to the content of your writing, that’s beside the point.
The exercise is training your ability to allow uninterrupted words to flow from the subconscious. This exercise–if done with discipline and often–allows you to access “the muse” that force that writers often speak of. That force that seems to take over your body and write the piece for you. From a more scientific perspective, this exercise is training you to access Flow State while writing.
To reiterate, your only concern is that you write without stopping for the entire time.
Example
Hi, my name is John and I like to write and I really don’t know what to say and my wife is pretty cool and I like dogs, but dogs are kinda ugly sometimes and they like to eat shit and smell ass and that’s okay I guess and what am I even doing and I don’t know what to write and I don’t know what to say…
Etc, the first few times you may produce something like the above, a completely mangled and strange stream of consciousness that makes little sense and is of little artistic or personal value, but over time, you will notice that the quality, coherence, and usefulness of your free-writes improves. You may even find yourself spontaneously writing poetry or fiction. Many of my stories began as spontaneous emanations from free writing.
When it comes to the choice of writing medium, I would personally recommend that everybody start with a pen and paper, at least for the first few weeks-months.
The reason why is because handwriting is a skill that is massively undervalued and used and in the beginning stages, I would argue strongly that the ROI is far higher than typing.
Writing by hand uses very different neural circuitry than typing. I’m not going to argue which is better and which is worse in the long run, but I will argue that in the beginning stages, everyone could benefit from a 10-minute handwritten free-write.
There you go, you now have a writing habit.
So far as I’m concerned (and many writers who are actually worth a shit–unlike yours truly–would agree), freewriting is the utter, most fundamental skill/practice to any writer. Ingrain this habit, and you can expand in any direction you like.
edit
Timing. If you can, first thing in the morning is ideal because your brain is naturally more open and receptive. However, other things you are doing might be more important to make use of those early morning hours, so just pick a time that works and stick to it.
Hell yes!
This is amazing @praisetheurdtree, thank you!
It was obviously $50,000 well spent
Really appreciate you saying all this because this hit a bunch of elements that I’m aware of or familiar with, but encapsulated them all perfectly and helped me put it all into context.
I’ll try the “10min/day freewriting session” in the mornings, that really takes the pressure off what i’m writing and whether or not the mornings are my “best work” so I’m looking forward to that.
Freewriting also helps you clear your allostatic load, all the horseshit and garbage that’s blocking you from doing your best work.
