Resolute's Rebirth

Much has happened over the past six months that led me back to subliminals and the path of emotional mastery, but the story is not as important as my commitment to change. That is the purpose of this journal - to avoid drifting and to maintain the commitment to change.

Thoughts

I forgot the power of these subliminals! Wow, that loop pulled me back into a painful state of betrayal that drove me to stop caring what people think, and instead learn to live my life for myself. Painful, beautiful, and just what I need - my fuel for change. There’s nowhere to hide with this one, and that’s what I need.

Opening a journal had me reflecting on the potential to seek approval / validation online (look at me, aren’t I good?). I concluded that if I write for myself, primarily for the purpose to maintain consistency, then the positives gained by being consistent should outweigh the potential negatives. It’s something to be mindful of as I update at the end of each day.

Today was good, I held my shit together without flinching. Took some action that I feared doing and had terrific outcomes. Felt strong emotions at times and also a constant underlying emotional hum of uncomfortableness. This is exactly what I’m inviting in by running Phoenix, so I’m happy.
