Self-development has to come from a place of self-love not self-hate because even if you could motivate yourself to better yourself because you hate yourself, it’ll never be enough.
The above’s not a quote. Just a random thought that’s not so random.
I’m really proud of myself today. I’ve been the most productive I’ve ever been and I didn’t give in to any distractions. No T.V., No Youtube Entertainment, No Porn
I read some chapters of How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big
I scripted a full page and wrote a full page of things I’m grateful for.
I meditated for 45 mins.
I watch videos of two memory courses, Kwik Recall and Magnetic Memory Palace, and took notes.
I listened to music.
I also slept a lot (productively lol)
I made a phone call to set up online personal training.
I drew my first Memory Palace.
All on a day where I’m snowed in and could’ve been lazy and unproductive af. I believe I’m only scratching the surface. I am grateful.

Information x Emotion = Longterm Memory
Boredom = 0
Information x Boredom = Forgetfulness because anything times 0 is 0.
That explains so much about traditional schooling.

I’ve been obsessed with learning how to improve my memory this week. I’ve even downloaded an app called memoryOS, and I’ve been on it religiously. The best part is that I find it enjoyable and I’m not forcing myself.
I meditated for 30 minutes this morning. During my meditation, the thought “I make $100K per month” pop up in my head. When it popped up in my head, I could feel a soothing pressure in my prefrontal cortex like my third eye was activated. I even said it while driving to work and that same pressure rushed my forehead. Also, when it did pop into my mind, it felt natural and unforced. I’ve never had a concrete financial goal before, so I’m gonna take this as a sign from the Universe. $100k per month it is.

The school system is broken. It’s funny how every class that I’ve taken wanted students to memorize their b.s. information to a T, but there wasn’t one class that taught students how to memorize said information.

I’ve gotten into bed by 10pm this whole week after trying for a long time to make it habit to get to bed early.

Major Recon Alert: I’ve been trying my hardest to get a refund for some Air Maxes that I thought I sent back, when really I forgot I exchanged them for some Tim’s in store. I’m really bothering support like “Hey Finishline, where’s my refund for these Air Maxes? It’s been at least like 2 weeks since I’ve sent them.” lmao wtf
On another note: Since I learned the Memory Palace technique, I’ve been trying to find new places I can use to create palaces with, when suddenly, I had the bright idea use Airbnb, SotheBy’s Realty, and other real estate sites! I’m looking through these real estate photos and I feel like I’m in Memory Palace heaven. If there’s a such thing as a ‘memory hard-on’, I think I have one right now.

With all the new drops, I realize how important it is to know what you want and commit to getting that. Or else you’d be sub hopping forever.

Today, I had the urge to practice grounding. During work, whenever I’d remember, I would name 10 things I see to bring myself back to the present. I did this maybe 10-15 times.
I’m also getting the strong urge to leave work early. I don’t if I’m burnt out or if it’s recon. I’m not tired. It’s just that I’d rather be somewhere else learning or working on my memory.
Rest
Thought: It’s not necessary to remember everything you read. Reading like digging for gold. 99% of the stuff you read is just “dirt.” That’s why it’s crucial to take a good look at what you need in your life, so that you activate the RAS in your brain. Instead of reading, search and ask “Is this information relevant to me?”
I’m really noticing this feat from QL
“Boredom becomes a thing of the past. Learning transforms into a source of joy, an activity you pursue not just for gains but for the sheer pleasure it brings. You will want to learn due to how good it can feel.”
It’s not 100% right now, but it’s definitely noticeable. I desire to learn more than I want to watch movies, porn, or YouTube videos. I don’t think I’ve watched either of those in the past 2 weeks. It’s crazy!

Something I’m noticing about my sleep pattern. If I go to bed before 10 pm, I can easily wake up early no problem. I don’t hit snooze or get back in bed at all. I also don’t feel tired. I always feel well rested. After 10 pm, major difference. I feel sluggish getting up like my body is full of sand. I often hit the snooze button multiple times and get back in bed before having to wake up again. Then I’ll probably hit snooze again lol.
So in conclusion, for me, I need to hop in bed before 10 if I want the next day to be productive.

End of Cycle
I really enjoyed this cycle of this stack. This run of QL and RoM has been, by far, the most noticeable in terms of tangible results of all the subs I’ve run since the start of my SubClub journey. I think Saint and Fire are on to something with this ‘New Subliminal Experience’ phenomena they’ve got going.
Summarizing my results from this cycle:
- Most noticeable: my journaling on the forum. It’s has been one of my biggest issues because I never knew what to write in these things. I was always overthinking it, but now I just write whatever I feel like is relevant whether the result is big or small
- My desire to learn has significantly increased. Right now, my desire to learn how to expand my memory seems to be priority
- I’m having fun learning the things I want to learn. It doesn’t feel like a chore anymore. I bought a memory course 2 years ago and never watched a video past the introduction. During this cycle I’ve made it to Vid 5 out of 7 while taking notes.
- I’ve learned about my sleep patterns. I noticed that I wake up earlier when I go to bed before 10. Anytime after 10 and I feel sluggish in the morning.
- I haven’t watched porn or youtube videos since mid-week of the first week of the cycle. I absolutely have no desire to watch either. And that’s mind-blowing because those two things were my only two vices and they had a “vice-like grip” on me since forever. I’ve been struggling to quit those things for so long and be more productive maaan now it’s like wow.
- My desire to meditate longer periods of time has increases. I used to meditate for about 5-10 minutes when I’d remember. This past week I’ve meditated everyday for at least 25-30+ mins, and I’ve enjoyed it.
*I’ve been more productive than I’ve ever been. - I’ve been getting a lot of ideas.
*I’ve been gaining wisdom and insight. Some of which I posted on this journal - I hired an online PT and started working out this week. I’m proud of myself for that.
And yeah, that’s it so far. 1 cycle down. 2 more to go for this stack. Washout starts tomorrow.

Back from washout.
I’m really loving this stack. I’ve been more productive than I ever been in my life. I wanted to journal during washout, but I forgot to do so each day because I worked until my tech cutoff, which is an at least an hour before bed. I guess you can say that’s recon lol
I’ve become so consistent in maintaining a daily routine these past two weeks. I go to bed at the same time every night. I get at the same time every morning which is early. The first thing I do is meditate. Then I practice gratitude and write affirmations after. Before bed, I do a check-in including questions like “How am I feeling?” and " What were my wins today?"
I’ve been working relentlessly trying to learning the Linux terminal for cybersecurity and I’m enjoying doing so.
I haven’t watch a lick of entertainment(besides the passing of TVs in my home and at work) in the past two weeks. I’d rather be doing something productive. And by that I mean I’m not using much willpower, if any, to do what I got do. I’m getting pleasure out of being productive, it’s wild.

I listened to a KwikBrain podacast episode while working. It was only about 20 minutes. Jim Kwik and his guest Daniel Lieberman discussed the topic of addiction. I won’t go into deep detail about what was discussed, but when they talked about ways to overcome addiction, they were listing external things a person could do such as going to group therapy or replacing it with something else, and I was like man this is how you overcome an addiction:
- Discover SubClub
- Run QL
I haven’t had a craving to go back to my old habits since I started running it. I know a lot of users on here that are looking for a way to quit porn as I was. I believe QL is the answer.
