Niles: The Deep End

Sorry to hear that man.
What happened?

I guess it’s for the best if you hate the work and process.

You can definitely make wealth with your style

Were you running EOG?

All good, I think I need a change anyways. Mainly the lead flow has been super slow the past two months, and as my boss is in a different country, he’s basically paying me 2X my base salary with the currency difference, which for him didn’t make sense with the amount of work load.

I was for the early part of the month which I was actually doing pretty well, switched to TSB/Limitless once that cycle ended, HOM here and there. Wasn’t really much to do with my performance though so not reading too much into that, it’s just a new offer that caught some traction at one point and was trying to scale without having really any I frastrucuture, team, or system in place to do so.

Honestly I need a break from sales anyways to clear my head and get back to feeling myself. Probably going to pick up something with less stress in the meantime while I finish out the semester and work more on my own projects, and get some much needed clarity. That feels extremely difficult for me to do in sales where it demands 100% focus and effort to do well, at least for me.

Gotta say, as I am transitioning out of sales, I’m pretty damn stoked to be able to run some of these other subs that focus more on internal development and other area’s, and not having to worry about being in recon getting me fired all the time lol.

Side note; just realizing how awesome the new sales copy is. Going back and reading through EOG 1, it’s crazy how many of the objectives have been accomplished through that one cycle, and through tangible expieriences, like reading things in books, podcasts, work expieriences, that I had no idea was directly from EOG 1.

This is something I am really grateful for, is that injecting my personality and being myself helps with my sales. I could never do stiff, or trying to get it right sales. This may be a function of how well I know the material/ sale and can function/flow with people.

Hahah that is awesome, and freeing, I’m trapped in a subliminal golden cage of my own success. I’m joking, although it would be awesome to focus fully on other things. Running ROW alongside True Sell was really interesting.

Will you continue to run EOG? Or what will you run now that you can risk the recon?

Sounds intriguing for sure; haven’t tried RoW yet but that’s going to be on the list for sure.

Yeah EoG is going to be the focus, got away from it the past couple weeks to focus on TSB. After reflecting on it, I think I made a lot more progress then I realized with EoG, but I still have more to go, and I could definitely use the direction/purpose clarity right now.

I’m also going to sub out limitless for RoM, as RoM covers a lot of what I need with productivity, cognitive enhancement for school, with also further helping clarity/purpose.

That’s it for now. I’ve learned I get a lot more out of running 2 subs rather then 3, maybe micro-loops here and there of something fun.

This will just be a short term 1-2 cycle stack until I have more direction.

3 min EoG, 3 Min RoM last night.

Im feeling extremely unstressed about the job situation, and virtually no negative feelings towards myself or the company at all. It’s more of an acknowledgment that it wasn’t meant to be at this time, and im grateful for the opportunity to open up other doors.

This will be my second cycle with EOG, and the first was more thrown in occasionally when I had the space to process, but already having massive shifts in my feelings and actions with money.

Noticing im definitely being more generous, as I have totally shifted my view of money being a finite/object, to an exchange of energy. This alone, has significantly reduced my fears and hang ups around wealth, as now when I have stressful financial expieriences or I start thinking about my bank account, I realize it’s due to not doing enough things of value for others, and that’s completely under my control.

My spending has also become much more conscious. Not that Im cutting back on things, if anything I feel like I’m spending MORE, but on things that I actually value, and so when I spend money now there is a much more positive emotion associated with it, and somehow im actually finding I have more left over then I normally do.

A lot of my hesitation and doubts behind entrepreneurship are clearing up as well, I think this is where the self worth scripting has really played in. This is something I’ve struggled with, but knowing that wealth is an exchange of energy, and again that the more I can do for others the more that will come back, has really separated the tie between my self worth and esteem from the money equation.

on Ecstasy of gold i started tipping 22% at cafe’s and broke through a lot of generosity limiting beliefs. all this negative reacting i’d been doing my whole life, as tipping machines stopped showing 5-15% and started showing 12-22%…

then i realized i was stressing like crazy over an additional $0.25 on a tip of 22% instead of 15%

For sure, I spent a lot of time in the service industry and had always been a pretty good tipper, but the past couple years or so with inflation and going out to eat getting a lot more expensive I noticed myself not feeling as abundant when it comes to tips. Since starting EOG ive noticed a lot of releasing over the scarcity I felt.

Saving this here, a lot of things I needed to hear in this video. “If I would of made millions of dollars in my 20s I’d be dead”. That one really hit, but I think a lot of the reasons I haven’t let myself be as successful as I could be is I simply wasn’t ready to yet. I really haven’t been in the place in my life, where I was prepared to make millions of dollars, and if I did, I’d have no idea even what to do with it.

Added in LoS to the stack, as I finally have time to focus and prioritize my fitness goals. I’ve been partying quite a bit over the winter, and I want to do some damage mitigation, and get my health to 100%. It also is less dense than other subs that cover fitness, which should theoretically put more of an emphasis on EOG. I also need to get my damn hair loss under control lol, back in the “wanted” days, I got comments on how attractive/good looking I was daily, and over the past few years I feel like I’ve aged quite a bit, especially with my energy. Hoping to notice an increase of energy with this as well.

For now, this will be my second main sub, with cognitive boosters like Limitess/RoM thrown in occasionally as an enhancer.

Ive certainly been more consistent with my workouts this week, and have hit the gym every day this week, while also increasing my daily step count. I did forget how energy intensive this sub is, as I’ve been sleeping at eating much more, and woke up today feeling insanely drained. Feels good though to have some space to focus on this area of my life, as ive mainly maintained and even when slightly backwards over rhe past couple years. With being on a job search right now, and not really in a hurry to find something unless I really like the position, I can go all in on healing myself mentally, starting with EOG, and getting myself to peak physical condition and health again.

About halfway through my EOG/LoS cycle, second cycle of EOG. Feeling HEAVY recon since this morning, but I definitely overexposed as I tried out 15 min loops the past two listens as I only plan to run EOG 1 for maybe one more cycle depending on work.

Ive made a lot of progress towards the objectives, overall my relationship with money feels healthier, but my drive couldn’t be less lol. I have two- final round interviews towards the end of this week which are both great opportunities. Pretty excited as the bases alone are more than I made the entire past year. But I feel very neutral towards them, which is what makes me feel my overall attitude towards money is shifting. Im realizing how unimportant money is to me, at least at this point in my life. I also view money differently, less tangible, which I think has made the pursuit of it loose a lot of its appeal. A part of me has always been this way though, I don’t mind working, and there’s parts of work that I absolutely love; but I’m really just not much of a money driven person, so long as I am making 8-10K/month, and can support my lifestyle desires, putting more time then that to go beyond that threshold doesn’t seem like a meaningful purpose. I will admit, I do come from a wealthy-ish family, at least to where I’ve never had to worry about much, and have always had more then I needed.

I have a feeling I will be wealthy one day, it’s just in the cards, but at this point in my life I want to focus more on becoming a person of character, having meaningful experiences, impact, self expression, are all calling my name a lot more.

Overall EOG 1, has been a success in my books as it brought me to a lot of these realizations. I don’t feel negatively towards money, I have less fear, but chasing it feels less important in my overall development/journey. I also feel like I achieved my main objective, which is having more of a sense of stability/security, and I also couldn’t be more excited to get out of the high ticket/personal development industry, and into something more stable/B2B (presuming I land one of these positions which im very qualified for).

In terms of LoS, feeling meh about it long term. It was nice to dial my fitness routine in, and perhaps it would have a place in a custom, but I would probably run something that covers more personal objectives like WB or Emperor, rather then physical shifting alone. Also so far, hasn’t done what I hoped to improve my hairline lol which was one of the main drivers behind running this, and I feel like WB is actually superior in that regard.

Running emperor these days, need a hard reset. Started the cycle last week, and results have been pretty incredible compared to the state I was in last week. Running solo for now, as it’s seeming to meet my biggest requirements; resilience, discipline, productivity, surprisingly good cognitive benefits.

Goals right now, build a daily meditation practice, used to be big into this but fell off, and I’ve been shocked by the clarity and focus benefits of just 30 min daily vipassana.

Next, land a B2B sales role with an AI company. Progressing very well with this with two second round interviews this week. Excited about the prospects as it combines my curiosity and excitement behind AI, witb the exact use case im interested in (sales/marketing automation), and are much more steady roles (salary, benefits, etc). These are becoming increasingly more compelling to me then straight commission, as I’ve had a lot of ups and downs with market fluctuations. Looking forward to a new journey in the B2B space, and hoping it rekindles my passion for selling with a more ROI based solution and emphasis on connection and relationship building.

My turn to help you get sales roles amigo

still sales? More business development, less 1-2 call closes it sounds like

Awesome EOG got you clarity and direction you were looking for. Can’t lose with Emperor solo

I’m really hoping the New Wanted is more like the new Seductress symmetry title for men. It’s an all-around title focused on improving physique and seduction with massive work and professional components, it seems really dialed in in that sense.

Emperor is more focused on work/productivity with a romance by-product while that title seems more romance/ physique, personal confidence with a strong work component

Still sales yeah, more software/AI and B2B solutions, just looking to get out of the coaching/courses/personal development space.

First loop of Emperor Executive, 5 minutes this morning.

Something I am reflecting on today, is that I used to believe I had a lack of sufficient intelligence for extraordinarily high performance. Looking back at the past couple months of school, I don’t believe that to be the case anymore.

I’ve been able to get 80-90% on my exams with just a few hours of studying, assisted by low dose adderall. This tells me my issue is not intelligence, it’s a lack of focus and procrastination. Very excited to see how this improves with the Executive, initial impressions based on interview prep/performance this morning is that it delivers on everything it says it does.

Update, landed both positions! Gotta decide what direction to go, but I’m beyond stoked.

Gotta say, EOG 100% contributed to this. A few months ago, I didn’t feel I was even qualified for these as most of them required degrees/industry experience.

Update; Stack has remained Emperor and added the Executive upon release. BDLM here and there for fun but micro looping that.

Mainly a housekeeping type of week as my new position starts in early April. Very excited for a new role/challenge, as this is going to be the first time working a more corporate position in 5+ years. Personally, I found I do very well in a corporate/structured environment as I find myself pushing more with the extra accountability, and I do very well with managers/office politics. The position is going to be hybrid as well, which is exactly the change I’ve been looking for in terms of getting out of the house more, and quite a bit of travel opportunity as well.

While I haven’t had a lot of opportunity to “take action” this cycle outside of my interviewing and job prep+school, I’m quite happy with the results of Emperor so far. I’ve said it countless times in my journal, but the resilience and discipline I get from Emperor are an absolute must for me. It is the base for me, that everything else can flourish on, but without that base my life can quickly slip into chaos. It pushes me towards a higher standard for myself, and while sometimes accompanied by boredom, I can honestly say I like that version of myself the best.

While not a focus of Emperor, I’m extremely pleased with the physical shifting benefits of the sub as well. I am back to my heaviest (while remaining lean/six pack) weight of 216 lbs, and although I am over a year off of TRT and completely natural now, my physique is starting to rival back when I was running TRT. Strength is climbing up to, and surprisingly even see some facial/aesethic scripting although that could also be due to running LoS last cycle. It’s a bigger/bulkier/more masculine look, but that is when I feel I look my best, not really into the whole fitness model aesethic.

Emperor just seems to bring my whole life more under my control; discipline, financial responsibility, confidence and strong frame, it feels like when all of those things are in place, all other goals are signficantly easier to achieve. There’s a cleaner more disciplined energy behind it, and then when I want to shift my focus it also stacks great with just about any other sub. Plan to keep running Emperor for work as well, as despite not always having the best sales runs, I believe this is more due to the recon that comes with the initial couple weeks of Emperor, and can easily be solved with the right stack. Also with my new role not being as heavily commission structured, there’s not as much constant pressure or to hit crazy numbers all the time, more about consistency, output, and business development.

As far as Exec, definitely plan to keep running this one, but haven’t had a ton of opportunity to really see what it can do, probably going to pause this until I start work as right now it’s unessecary recon with not a lot of opportunity to take action. Going to be focusing on my health/fitness and getting into a routine the next week, followed by a nice full washout before I start my role.
