If you needed some healing I would suggest doing the Elixir along with AM but on separate days, like:
Day 1: AM
Day 2: off
Day 3: the Elixir
Day 4: off
Day 5: AM
Day 6: off
Day 7: the Elixir
Day 8: off
and so on.
I would run 2-3 loops for AM and only one for the Elixir but it depends on your individual capacity and energy level.
Ongoing journal… I’m gaining more independence from the subliminals. Getting a clearer picture of what I want and not compromising in being able to get it. I’ve always had a lot of trouble sitting down and focusing on boring/difficult tasks, but I’m more willing to sit down and do work of that nature these days.
To put things into perspective, getting to 10K/month was mainly a sales process for me. Book and close sales calls. Now I’m doing more planning and strategic thinking, and while it doesn’t come naturally, I’m more excited to do it than I was before. Partly due to subliminals and partly due to the fact that I see the value of it now more than ever.
Was out for a walk today listening to Ascended Mogul, and I was carrying a lot of anger. I did something unusual for myself and let all that anger out by venting to myself.
“I HATE YOUR ____”
“WHY DID YOU _____”
I vented to the air what I had been holding in inside and it felt so good.
30 minutes later, the person that I was upset at called me and I cleared it up. It was an actual situation that I was unhappy with so we created a new solution for the situation and now I feel unleashed.
Was feeling pretty angry all day and a bit uncertain because I wasn’t in alignment with what was happening, but now I’m more comfortable with this, so I’m back at full motivation and excitement.
Sorry for not elaborating more on the situation. Prefer not to explain this one.
Thanks for sharing your progress here @Billions. It’s inspired me to take more action and possibly look to partner with someone who is already capable of handling fulfillment.
One thing I should tell you guys is that the reason I mainly focus on business rather than personal goals is because for the most part, my personal life and emotional body are pretty well sorted out. I’ve always been pretty positive, or at least optimistic, even when my body was throwing such crazy energetic rollercoasters at me that only bipolar medications could calm it down.
But since then, I’ve already got an amazing handle on my diet, my sleep, my mindset about life and difficulties. I have a great girlfriend.
My point is… if I tend to focus solely on money, don’t think very little of me. It’s just that’s the main area of life that I’ve ignored for so long. I used to think that I would die poor no matter what I did. I got fired from every job I ever had because I couldn’t consistently perform at work. Even now, having money, part of me realizes I can afford to pay for all the things I want to pay for right now, but my subconscious is still gripping onto this fear-based mentality of not having enough. When I wrote out how much money is about to come into my bank account in the next 60 days, I literally thought to myself “No, that can’t be right.” and redid the calculation.
Today’s been going really well. I woke up feeling productive and confident. I’m starting to tackle that money belief of “not having enough to pay my bills.” I think the subs are trying to tackle that belief, while the rest of me is resisting. But it doesn’t feel like recon. More like two conflicting beliefs.
Asc.Mog definitely is helping my ESTEEM more than anything else, especially around money.
“I can’t sell because I’m too young.” ----> “People love how young and ambitious I am” (I’m 25)
“I’m always going to be poor” ----> “Maybe I really could make a billion dollars one day” (My username was actually a scornful joke, indicating making a billion was impossible… now, I can at least contemplate it without laughing.)
“I’m probably going to fail” ----> “I’m probably going to succeed.”
“I can’t afford this coaching program” —> “I don’t need to be afraid of losing money because I’m making money.” (I was earning the same income before and after the belief, but wasn’t ready to fork out a large amount of cash to invest in my business until I did some subliminal-assisted mindset work.)
Stuff like that.
The main way I sorted out my emotional body before finding subliminals was through meditation. I lived at the Goenka Dhamma/Vipassana Center for 3 months straight, followed by another 5 months of travelling Asia and visiting meditation centers there. That was a mental bootcamp unlike anything even Dragon Reborn could compare to.
I’m only coming back into meditation now, and using a book called “The Mind Illuminated” by John Yates to guide me. I highly recommend following the program for anybody who wants to remove emotional trauma or increase their overall capacity for life. It’s popular among Vipassana-meditators, and the online community for the book is strong, full of success stories, and supportive
@Azriel It’s digital marketing, specifically lead generation for Realtors. I’m partnered with another Subliminal Club user, actually. he’s the one that introduced me.
@IRON thank you! I’ve been keeping up with yours as well. Looking forward to your next update.
This has nothing to do with Ascended Mogul but I figure I’d share, because this WILL represent an update in my stack.
My girlfriend and I decided to start listening to Heartsong together, which looks like an exciting subliminal.
All of my motivation to become rich and stuff really stems from my girlfriend. before I met her, I NEVER wanted kids or anything like that. But we’ve been together for a year and a half and now I know I want kids with her etc. etc. etc. The full 9 yards. So that’s my motivation for making so much more money.
For me, Heartsong is going to be an interesting addition to this stack, considering my motivation for wealth is love and family. Curious to see the effects but I’m sure they’ll be positive.
For her, it’s a perfect fit with her current subliminal usage goals. She’s listening to Regeneration 2x a day trying to deal with past traumas around abandonment, failed previous relationships, general anxiety, and all kinds of emotional traumas. She hopes to be more “whole” in our relationship.
One of the things in life that tortures her the most is the fear of not being good enough for our relationship. She is constantly afraid that I’m going to leave her… to get Freudian about it, it’s probably a response to how many times she was abandoned in her early childhood years.
So although the symptom we’re trying to address is the anxiety, the root cause is not feeling like we’re going to have the future that we want together. So perhaps Heartsong will be more effective for her anxiety than Regeneration is.
It’ll also be nice to listen to subliminals together at night on the speakers… sometimes I put on headphones at night because Asc Mog is for men only, but she doesn’t like when I drown her out.
Ascended Mogul has made me a lot more “successful” and have better financial prospects, which I thought would be amazing for our relationship, but it’s actually made our relationship a lot worse… at least in the present moment.
My girlfriend has some self esteem issues and so honestly, it sucks to admit, but she’s very threatened by the fact that I’m making a lot of money now. She WANTS to be happy for me (and hates that she isn’t), but what’s really present for her is feelings of comparison. She’s treating it as a reminder that she’s not good enough to make money for herself without an employer. It’s reminding her of all the other times in her life she’s been reliant on men for money and felt powerless as a result. She thinks I’m going to leave her for someone “hotter” and “better” once I have a bunch of money.
The result in our relationship has been that I don’t feel comfortable talking to her about business, which is unfortunate, because it’s 90% of where my attention and interest lies. I’m still sharing all my wins with her, but I get this tightness every time I’m about to share one with her… because I know that rather than be happy for me, she’ll get triggered internally and shut down a bit.
So hopefully time will help me figure out how to respond to that. And hopefully Heartsong helps.
AM is fine for women too. You can and should stack HS and AM for both of you.
She can take a break from Regen for now, or play it solo, if it seems to help.
I’m going to push back against this a little bit, @Prome.
I’m not saying it’s good for people to stay together all the time. It is not. There are appropriate times and reasons for moving on.
But this framing of it as doing better, doing worse, upgrading, downgrading; I think it creates a mental prison that eventually only holds yourself.
I think that everyone has our own issues and our challenges. If yours are not currently kicking your ass, then I’m honest when I say that I am really happy for you.
But things go up and down; circumstances and conditions change. Parts of us that were submerged, suppressed, or out-of-awareness can eventually rise up and make their demands. It’s a part of life. The desolation that you feel at those moments of inescapable vulnerability is probably directly connected to the compassion that you found or didn’t find for others in your moments of strength and apparent invulnerability.
Sounds preachy even as I say it. But it’s more like physics.
Anyway, to @Billions I’ll say, watch, observe, trust yourself, and make the best choices you can see to make, whatever those may happen to be. It is what it is. Right?
On a completely different note:
First of all, I’m getting serious Batman Begins vibes.
Second of all, just, wow.
The typical Goenka retreat daily schedule is:
4:00am: Wake-up Bell
4:30am — 6:30am: Meditate
6:30am — 8:00am: Breakfast
8:00am — 11:00am: Meditate
11:00am — 1:00pm: Lunch
1:00pm — 5:00pm: Meditate
5:00pm — 6:00pm: Tea
6:00pm — 7:00pm: Meditate
7:00pm — 8:15pm: Lecture
8:30pm — 9:00pm: Meditate
10:00pm: Lights Out
That’s 10.5 hours of meditation per day. And, as you can say better than I, 10 consecutive hours of meditation (in 1 day) are completely not the same as 10 days of 1 hour meditation.
It’s almost like the difference between a) climbing a mountain path for 10 straight hours, and b) climbing that mountain path for 1 hour and then going back home, then returning the next day to do start again from the beginning.
(Not exactly the same, but, yeah.)
Three months straight of that? Followed by a 5 month tour of meditation centers.
Bro, that’s beautiful.
I still haven’t done the Goenka retreats myself. I’ve thought ‘maybe one day’. But I’m happy for you.
And The Mind Illuminated fits pretty well with the strong foundation that you’ve already built.
If ever you choose to share about your experiences, I’ll be vicariously and voyeuristically interested. And if you, on the other hand, choose to treasure them silently within yourself, I’ll be happy for you with that as well.
(I don’t believe in changing or trying to change anybody.)
I am more addressing the frame around your point.
Rather than thinking in terms of changing anybody, the question I’d ask myself might be: “Can I or can I not find it within myself to appreciate and respect this person’s journey, exactly as it is right now?” If my answer to that question is a clear, ‘no’, then it may be time to move on. And that’s not because of their quality, but because of our quality. It’s too heavy for me to carry and still be at my best.
Anyway, that’s all I’m saying. Not even sure if Billions wants this on his journal. If not, I’m cool to trade perspectives about it on another thread.
If she’s LSE then if you are nice to her she will think you are a loser too.
Hence, don’t be nice to her. And she will get off on it.
Ok, what can we learn from this?
That women are emotional creatures.
Therefore you can control them by pushing their emotional buttons.
Hence a happy side effect of controlling them is getting them to not be so LSE but this shouldn’t be your goal.
Win win all round.
Other reflections on this thread.
The OP doesn’t sound like a well put together guy and perhaps he can’t or doesn’t want to do better.
He wants to share his “life” with his partner and because he has just started to move up in the money sphere he wants to share this aspect.
Why.
Does she know anything about the business, can she help or give actionable advice is is it all in one ear and out the other.
So why the fuck bother.
And this is why men have male friends, to talk about the important stuff like business, politics, world events etc whilst women are for helping build the tribe, keep in touch with the relatives, run the household etc.
Don’t think of it being an equal partnership , it isn’t and you should be in charge. So perhaps this is where the real problem lies because the OP has bought into the current cultural mores of modern American society.
In which case I will not waste my time with him.
I’ve always thought the American realtor market was ripe for exploitation considering how much realtors get and how Americans love being sold to. As if they can’t figure out whether to buy a particular house themselves.
I used to have a mate who is bipolar. I got to know him when he was tuning up high end sports cars and had a unit next to one of mine. He then disappeared for nine months, just left his business and upped and went. He had gone to Canada to work on the grain harvest and when he came back he opened up a gym, six months later he disappeared again and I’ve never seen him since. Nice bloke though.
Off course, the OP might not want to change his life, up to him really.
