My perceptual-affective framing of an interaction determines A LOT of how a particular person comes across.
That can be very difficult to grasp.

People who are in the herd can afford, to some extent, to bullshit themselves;
Because even though their own personal narratives and logic may be flawed and self-contradictory, they will still be protected to some extent by the logic and movements of the herd.
If youâre not following the herd, you donât have this luxury. The lies that other people tell themselvesâand that they may even believeâwill be more harmful for you, if you lack the protective force of the social membrane.
This is not a disadvantage;
It is a distinction.
Thereâs this experience that I noticed coming up in my life during some periods of meditation; and the same experience has happened with Dragon Reborn and other programs.
Itâs incongruous joy or pleasure.
You get these gusts of wellbeing that arise independently of any specific condition or circumstance.
Itâs not overwhelming or anything. And itâs likely that it was happening the whole time. But I noticed it much more after meditating.
Just had another one of those moments.
Switching from a passive to an active (Intentional) action orientation.
Causing interesting shifts in relationship to time and futureâŚ
In the close to three years that Iâve been working with subliminals, it seems that I havenât really stopped for longer than 10 days.
When youâre feeling overwhelmed, youâre more in a state of mind of seeking escape. Not really trying to create anything.
As you become less overwhelmed, and even start to feel stronger and to thrive, the world starts looking more like a range of opportunities, projects, and possible adventures.
You lose one kind of intensity, but then you have the opening to cultivate another less panicked, more gradual, and more stable kind of intensity.
You canât blame somebody else that you were the one who was waiting for permission.
Thatâs about you.
The Essence of Alpha (for me):
You can be wrong about something, and it doesnât make me have to crash the car.
I can be wrong about something, and it doesnât make me have to crash the car.
The only thing that makes me have to crash the carâŚis crashing the car.
And after the car crashes,
I clean up, take care of it, and get back to driving.
Hey Seeker,
Wherever you are and whatever youâre getting up to, know that you are missed and you are appreciated.
(And also, you deserved a bit of a vacation from this place.)
But hope youâre well and thriving, man.
All internal programsâfrom Dragon Reborn to Quantum Limitless to Alchemist and beyondâare Results Enhancers.
"T minus 3"
2 more days with Dragon Reborn.
Then itâs washout time.
Interestingly, Iâve been noticing some mindstate shifts in the past 2-3 days.
What is â internal â ?
Itâs something of a subjective way of describing them and somewhat inaccurate.
Technically, all subliminals are internal since all work with the mind.
Iâm referring to programs for which the primary emphasis of their effects is on bringing about shifts in how we process information, perceptions, memories, etc.
Again, all programs do this to some extent; but for some programs (for example, Mindâs Eye, Quantum Limitless, etc.) the focus seems to be more on transforming the inner, mental world of processing than on impacting the outer, behavioral world of social and physical interaction.
If you can recognize and deal with narratives without letting them control you, youâve done maybe 50 or 60% of the work needed to navigate human society.
Learn to separate the story.
It is not that the stories are necessarily untrue.
Itâs that a whole bunch of other things get smuggled into you with the story.
In fact, the most effective delivery methods are truths.
A convincing or decent truth will get your guard down so that a whole lot of other things can enter unnoticed.
So itâs not the untruth of narratives that you need to look out for the most, itâs the manipulativeness of narratives.
That word sounds bad, but manipulation is not bad.
Oxygen manipulates our ability to live, and we are grateful for it (and should be).
Honesty, integrity, and loving-care manipulate and influence us to form closer bonds with people.
Influence and manipulation are not evil.
Just need to make sure that the narratives and stories are not blowing you off of your chosen course; or, even worse, distracting you so much that you never even get a chance to set your course in the first place.
And the irony of it (drum roll):
This post is a narrative.

Okay.
We did it.
This morning I played my final formal loop of my Dragon Reborn custom. Tomorrow will be 1 day of an extended washout period.
Iâm thinking of playing one final loop of Dragon Reborn standard version, since it has been updated recently. Just one last send-off for my mind.
And itâs Monday, so I may do an Ascension Chamber loop this evening.
The date July 11 has been standing here like a flag on the mountain since I first plotted out my listening schedule back in January. Back then July certainly seemed a pretty long way off.
And now here we are.
The plan is to washout for some weeks and to then begin the first stage of my new stack in early August.
This eventually evolved to become Sapiens. This is the next custom that Iâll be ordering and running. Starting next month.
It does include all of those above mentioned modules (Eagle Eye, Way of Understanding, Storyteller, Empath, Mercy Protocol, Chiron).
And itâs intended to be the primary supporter of my next phase of career development and Calling.
Took a year.
But itâs coming.
Funny to think that when I wrote that original post, I hadnât yet even played 1 loop of Dragon Reborn.
Time for this eveningâs walk.
Already played all of todayâs subs.
1 loop Drakari Transcend Terminus
1 loop Pools of Healing Terminus2
1 loop of Dragon Reborn ZP
1 loop of Ascension Chamber
Last day for a while. So I just put them all in.
Walking time.
