Dropped the third title in my stack. Staying with Love Bomb and New Limitless. Also gives me the opportunity to spread the loops out more even if it is only thirty seconds I still want the opportunity for my brain to be able to process everything in its own time. Not rushing anything anymore. It’s not worth the recon
I’ve been feeling pretty lousy about myself lately so I decided today to drop my stack back to only Love Bomb. I plan to run it solo until I cultivate these 11 things
Is this helpful?
Do you feel expansion when you read that or some contraction?
It gives me a clear objective
Not sure what you mean by this
Do you think the outer world has to change before you’ll feel good and expand?
“First I must experience a, b and c in order to feel good.”
Not at all. I used to. I know I have to change from within and allow that to bloom outward.
Another great article about self love
I can feel myself having changed although my actions having necessarily changed. I can’t hold on to the past anymore. I don’t have any desire for nostalgia. I keep thinking of this quote from Eddie in Limitless
“Only problem… if I wasn’t moving forward, I felt like I was going to explode.”
I feel a lot like I did when I was running the original version of Dragon Reborn St 1 almost four years ago. Losing interest in a lot of things. I don’t feel bad about myself as much but I feel like I’m also trying to figure out exactly what it is I want and what I enjoy despite any external influence. What it is that makes me who I am.
I have always felt I have been easily swayed into thinking about or trying to enjoy certain things even though I knew in my heart that whatever it was wasn’t for me.
That’s what I feel on DR:Phoenix, it describes the feeling exactly, I couldn’t wrap it in words. Thank you.
Ran a third three minute loop last night out of curiosity. Bad idea. Feeling really anxious this morning. I guess that means my sweet spot is somewhere between six and nine minutes
Generally really enjoying how I feel with this minus the recon. I can feel the negativity , envy, anger, resentment, pessimism, distrust, and self loathing slowly slipping away. I am noticing my thought patterns changing. Once in the last week I found myself say to myself that I apparently don’t deserve wealth and happiness in my life. I knew how the whole sentence went from the thousands of times I’ve said it to myself before now. I was able to stop myself mid sentence and switch it to “Not Yet”.
Any time I notice myself repeating negative thoughts I instantly say " I love myself " repeatedly for the next few minutes. Even if I don’t really feel that way I still say it. When I was feeling anxious this morning I have been saying " I love myself " repeatedly for a few minutes every time a bit of anxiety shows up.
I got the idea from a book by Kamal Ravikant.
Even the way I provide input and advice is changing
Going through some weird but cool changes. I have found especially over the last couple of months that I find it difficult to relate to or want to emulate anyone. I don’t see it as a bad thing. I feel that it’s me trying to figure out exactly what is best for me. True authenticity. I don’t want to copy or rehash something other people are doing or have done.
I don’t know if feeling this way is because of my age , the work Love Bomb is doing, or a combination of both.
I experienced something similar when I first ran stage one of Dragon Reborn. I didn’t go beyond stage one out of some weird fears which is a big reason why I am excited for Dragon Reborn to be updated with NSE. I feel that by running Love Bomb now , Dragon Reborn in the near future, and Khan Love and War that I should have a clear vision of who I am and what exactly it is that I want.
Sounds to me like you’re starting to discover, that there’s a real James, an individual, not a NPC.
That needs a lot of self love.
I have to drop my listening time down to one or two minutes total for each of the three titles. Feeling super anxious today . I was sort of hoping that I could stay at three minutes but that apparently creates crazy recon. As much as I don’t want to I am going to do with just one minute for each title.
I was seriously thinking I might make faster progress if I could bump up the listening time. Nope. A bit frustrating but I’m not sure what else to do. It always feels like I start getting something going and then try to push beyond that only for my subconscious to say " not yet buddy. You have to be patient and take the time necessary no matter how long that is" .
There’s that word again " patience ". It’s making me feel a bit crazy at times. I just really hope that this is all worth it eventually.
The subs are doctors and we are patience
You are the doctor, the patient and the scalpel.
The sub is more like the teacher that gives advice in the background.
Subs are a superior tool, but it’s actually us doing the hard work.
I’m so angry today. Frustrating knowing that all of this could take a long time. All the while my life just keeps going no matter how much work I do or actions I take. A lot of times I feel like I’m somehow missing something. That I’m not seeing something that’s obvious to others.
