I will listen to the GLM track on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and update this journal at the end of each week. I have lived this lifestyle imperfectly for several months and I’m curious to observe the different experience while I listen to GLM.
Day 1
GLM: 30 seconds
Day 3
GLM: 30 seconds
Day 5
GLM: 1 minute
I should update my journal and explain that I’m using the new listening schedule. It makes sense to try it because I used to stop listening after a week or two because I was overloaded. Since reading the support article, I completely understand micro-loops now.
The first few days, I felt very introspective. I started to see the judgements I make on people and how it effects the way I feel and react. The last several days I have become a productivity machine. A fear that led me to procrastinate is now easier to overcome or at least that’s how it feels.
Day 7
GLM: 30 seconds
I had a very bad day on day 6. It could be reconciliation because I had a lot of anger and bad feelings towards people. I got into almost a confrontation with someone I didn’t know because I felt disrespected. I’m still working through it and it’s related to the nice guy syndrome because when I reflected and was still raging, I decided never to be friendly towards anyone again. Since then I have thought it is not the way because other people have bad feelings too and being that way is not going to make anyone feel good but instead I realize that I need to detach myself from outcome expectations and neediness when dealing with other people. I can remain polite but keep things brief and instead have them prove themselves to me whether I want to extend further social pleasantries. I am enough and I don’t need everyone to like me.
I still feel some rage inside but I also experienced this release of trapped energy and I can feel a nearly 100 percent reducing of no longer caring about what people think of me. I also deleted the subliminal track from my phone on day 6 when I was at my worst. I blamed it for what was happening and since then I listened on day 7 beacuse I chose to stop that pattern and face things for it’s the challenge of developing toughness that I seek.
Discoveries that are helping:
Semen retention
Right now I am about 3 or 4 days and I can feel the difference in my energy levels and reduced flight or fight.
Increasing carbohydrates
This had a big influence yesterday on day 7 after I decided to eat a bowl of oats with brown sugar and instantly a lot of my bad feelings disolved and I slept the best I have in weeks.
Other goals:
The strength and conditioning training is going well and I expect it even better now with sometimes adding more carbohydrate.
The diet is good, this week losing 1,3kg and a total of 9,1kg since I went beast mode on life.
Digital detox is good and I do cheat sometimes but my addictions are at minimal levels.
