First thing that happened was all my financial anxiety went away.
I had budgeted 3k for a trip with my gf for 7 weeks in a foreign country. We spent 3k in 2-3 weeks, and I started panicking HARD. Stopped eating meals to save money levels of stress. Really regretted the trip and assessed the boundaries/neediness-issues that led me to make a decision I wasn’t aligned with, but that was before C&C.
After C&C, that anxiety just INSTANTLY vanished. Like next thing u know I’m like “let’s go to a fine dining restaurant” and my daily stress vanishes.
Emperor’s Crown & Emperor’s Presence hit hard, as the first feature to notice. I was very confident, composed, the silent leader in groups.
Capital Focus and The Flow Of Power have become new norms for me,
Journaling really helped me activate Inner Circle: Alliance Architect
Socially, it kind of feels like a version of the will to power but for finance.
And I really don’t want to understate the privacy component to it… I used to speak extremely impulsively based on my emotions, but now I’m much more composed and selective about what I say. I used to be in men’s work that’s all about radical transparency sharing every week. When I came back from my vacation, it didn’t feel like a fit for me anymore so I left, after almost 5 years.
My “code” has started shifting towards “building privately, launching publicly” - I have no need to tell people what I want to do. Only what I’ve done. And I prioritize WAY more alone time that I actually utilize to get things done.
This week productivity has been down, possibly due to recon from three titles, but with C&C my productivity was at its peak, in a slow controlled manner, because I just simply was focused on money. I prioritized, more than produced, so I could do the same amount I was doing earlier, but be more effective in which projects I select, and less distracted when I do them
