Bro RoM is actually crazy, the entire Past/Present/Future framework came to me in an epiphany last night and I figured out what makes it special.
If you’re going to run a PPF stack, like i’ve unknowingly been doing for a long time…
“Future” is your primary sub. My “Future” sub has been finance related for over 3 years. I ran AM for 9 months, EOG for 9 months, now I’ve been running HOM/PCC for 3 months and am about to start HOM/PCC qtks which’ll go for another 6 months minimum.
You don’t change your “Future” sub very often and you rarely change the “Category,” even when you do change the Future sub.
I’ve been working towards financial freedom for my entire subliminal journey, so I’ve been most consistent on the subs that get me towards that future… AM, then EOG, then HOM.
In order to accomplish your future, you need to live in the present moment.
A “Present” sub is a subliminal that gives you a skill, a tool, a resource, in order to become the type of person that gets to his future faster.
For example, if my “Future” sub is wealth related (AM/HOM/EOG, doesn’t matter), then my “Present” sub is going to be a subliminal that unlocks something to help me get there. Love Bomb could give an increased Aura of respect, to help me make more sales. Limitless Executive or GLM could help me work harder, to accomplish more, to get to my future faster. Chosen could help me manage my team and mood. PCC could help me accomplish more socially at work to get promotions etc. Inner circle could help me manifest people to get me to my future faster through networking. Paragon could even be considered a “Present” subliminal in that it helps me sleep better and be less. WHATEVER it is.
Then there’s past subliminals which go up and heal something in your past.
Right now, RoM is my “Present” subliminal for cognition and verbal acuity, GLM is my “Past” subliminal to go back and heal masculinity/drive at the root.
“Past” subliminals are usually healers, and when you run a healer with the goal of accomplishing your future as fast as humanly possible, you have to ask yourself what’s the minimum dose of healing necessary to keep myself unstuck.
I can run RoM and GLM in roughly equal proportions because GLM is not that heavy of a healer, considering how long I’ve run AM for, but if I were to go back and run LBFH as my healer, I’d need VERY small exposure to it.
So past/present/future subliminals have different listening patterns even within one stack.
And I’ll remind everyone here that I’m not saying this is how subliminals have to work, this is just a very specific framework I’ve been unconsciously using for my entire 2+ years at SC that has been extremely helpful.
Future
Extremely Consistent Listening, tolerate recon, grow over the long term, pick a sub that is focused towards your most long-term goals.
Present
Often listened to for the microloop effect. I don’t need productivity next week I need it NOW, so I run a microloop of Limitless Executive. “Now” is the definition of “Present.”
I could think of “The Present” in a sub-90-day time horizon as well and run something like PCC or True Sell for 3+ minute loops at first, with the goal of getting those skills up to a suitable level of development, and then transitioning to a combo of 3min loops once per week, and microloops 2-3x per week to maintain growth.
Past
Something that is really holding you back needs to be slowly untangled. Getting into a habit of constantly healing is counterproductive, but taking some time on your stack to address the past with something like DR, LBFH, etc., is an incredible results amplifier. Literally run a 1-3 minute loop once every 1-3 weeks, more or less depending on recon. The goal of a “Past” subliminal, when the goal is to get to your ideal “Future” as fast as possible, is to run it in a way that keeps you elevating, but doesn’t stop you from taking action. Find the right exposure level where you get the benefits of healing, but not the recon, and only listen to recon-inducing subs on a friday night before a weekend when you don’t work, so that you don’t interfere with your future.
