Day 8 (Cycle 1 of Ascension)
Rest
Will be moving from my current apartment to another one nearby. Will still be living with my parents but getting a much bigger and better room with an attached bath. It will be around 6 times my current small room. Plus there will be 3 bookshelves. Enough space for the tons of books I have.
This new room will give me space to exercise and move around more. Am also treating the new place as a base to launch myself into financial independence.
Exercise, learn and work to find my purpose.
Today, I was sifting through my stuff and am getting rid of a lot of them. It would be good for me to use this opportunity of moving into this new home to practice even more Minimalism.

You got hit with a major importance placed on ethics too? That’s been huge for me. I got obsessed with making money and 100% confident that I would end up making money. But then right after that happened, it switched and became more nuanced, where I became obsessed with making money but always wanted to be 100% ethical, and knew that only so long as I remained ethical would I absolutely certainly make all the money I wanted.
Cool, I thought I was the only one hit by the ethics train.

Day 9 (Cycle 1 of Ascension)
Ascension x1
Am waking with a feeling of foreboding these days. I don’t know if it is because of reconcilliation or because of my lack of money. Maybe both.
But it usually goes away after rising up from bed and doing my morning routine.
Today I had to help with deciding where some of the wall fittings and appliances sit in our new apartment, so time went in that.
In the evening I had what I was sure was heavy recon regarding my disabilities. It’s a regular thing I grapple with. I wish I could find some cures and get on with my life.
But then am I using crutches for my illnesses or using my illnesses as crutches? As much as I don’t want to play the victim, I find myself doing so.
Don’t mind me. It’s just the…

I would stack Ascension with Commander for building a foundation

An excellent idea, @friday. Maybe later. Am sticking with Ascension alone for a while.
By the way, love your accountability journal idea. I need to do a version of this:

I’ll second this. I’ve got EoG4 in my wealth custom… before running this I had a certain threshold for my bank account, and if the amount dropped below that line I’d feel panic. Now it’s been raised so that if the amount drops below $10k in any one of my accounts I still feel a bit of panic, but I can re-center myself with the knowledge that I have several accounts. Then I work on getting that specific account back above that mark.
EoG FTW.

Very much looking forward to running EoG in six months. Had already made plans for it when I started this journal. Will be running 3 cycles of each stage:

Day 10 (Cycle 1 of Ascension)
Rest
A very productive day. Was moving my stuff into my new room and relishing the fact that I had loads of room for my books (3 bookshelves!!!). Felt like I was living in a library haha. I love books!
All that heavy lifting carrying stacks of heavy books and furniture while going up and down the stairs is making me feel a very pleasant ache in my body. The pleasantness of a day well spent in physical effort and sweat. Men are made for this.
Plus no reconcilliation at all today. Just joy in work and a day well spent.
And doing all this on One Meal a Day! No hunger since my mind was occupied with getting things done. Yessss!
Will have some more of this for a few days. Bring it on!

Day 11 (Cycle 1 of Ascension)
Rest
Ended up forgetting to run Ascension last night. AGAIN! Like I did a couple of days ago. So i decided that I will run it (every alternate day) while I write my journal entry. That way it will be easy to remember. So here I am writing this post while listening to Ascension.
But despite forgetting, Ascension is still working. I know that because it is pushing me to do more everyday.
Had a good day today. Similar to yesterday. Moving things from my current residence to the new one. The only difference was that I did it for longer.
Sweating does push the recon out of me. So I enjoyed that. Drank loads of water to make up.
There was no idle time to entertain any negative thoughts or feelings. So as soon as am done with this work, I will draw up a routine for me to stick to to achieve my goal of being more alpha and independent. I need to be occupied and working on my purpose instead of moping about and feeling sorry for myself. Keep the mind, heart and body working.

I usually find that these ‘forgettings’ are not accidents.

Yes, bro. I did wonder whether Ascension was basically telling me “No worries.You’re good” as if to say that I will do just fine taking an extra rest day and it could help me process better.
ZP is so cool!

Day 12 (Cycle 1 of Ascension)
Ascension x1
Finished getting the last of my books into my new room. Lifting boxes of them made me get this slight ache on both sides of my shoulders where the neck meets the shoulders. In that hollow part. And just like yesterday, am relishing the pain.
I used to not like such tiredness when I was younger (was fatter then too). Now that I know that that is what builds a man and his body, am liking it.
Was slightly stressed when Dad drove me out to get a few supplies for the new house. It was raining and saturday evening trafffic was bad. And it resulted in bumping into a bike. That made me irritated but as Dad and the guys argued outside (it just affected their bike’s bumpers and they didn’t fall), I cooled down and some part of me told that it will get over soon. And that’s what happened. The issue resolved itself and we drove away.
Talking about driving, I hope I will be able to drive again one day. Come on, my dear eyes! Heal!! Lol.

@Lion I feel that same way at least few days a week. Much of these feelings were job related. Through Faster EFT I am working through them.

I have tried Robert Smith’s Faster EFT but I dislike hitting myself with my fingers. Not the modality for me.
How hard (or lightly) do you tap on yourself, @TheSunlightCaller, @Trader? Maybe I am doing it wrong.
3 Likes
Only very lightly. Like you might gently tap someone’s shoulder to get their attention.
In all honesty, however, the tapping isn’t even required. Robert admits this, too.
The tapping has nothing to do with it at all. It’s just a distraction mechanism. Robert comes from an NLP background, and the tapping is just a pattern interrupt.
When he has someone “aim” at their issue, that’s fancy talk for “Think about what is bothering you”…You’re basically calling up the old, established pattern of that issue in mind.
The tapping and all the other stuff just scrambles the old pattern so it can never fire the same way again.
He takes people through doing the same process but they instead just IMAGINE they’re tapping, same result.
EDIT: And since the tapping isn’t even necessary, you could do the same with a rubber band on your wrist, popping it each time you think something “bad”
