Day 3 of round 3
Today I listen to Renaissance man ZP, creator of worlds. That’ll be my third ZP title for this round.

I am hoping it will aid me in my improv, work (programmer) and also content creation. It also looks like a fun title to run and feels fitting for my personality where I have many interests (in many areas) and learning about things, and create something in each area.

I really like True Social because made socializing so effortless, really awesome. Especially togethet with Inner Circle. But I want to see what RenMan can bring to the creative aspect. Especially for creating content like Youtube videos etc. I might go back to one or the other depending of what I feel brings me the most value for my needs and tasks at hand in the next rounds.

Day 5 Sub day of round 3
Running StarkQ and Inner Circle ZP

I’ve been experiencing stress and anxiety regarding streaming. I think about this stuff day and night, so when it comes to actually putting on a show or whatever it’s counter intuitive because my energy levels are already depleted and I am in this weird headspace riddled by thoughts and anxiety.

So I am planning to have set time slots for stream brainstorm/analyze/plan sessions, set time slots for exercises to improve myself as a entertainer/broadcaster and set time slots for actually streaming and just let go and be. Everything else is rest mode, to recover and let things land. I must not forget that I also have family/friends and work, and I need to take care of myself and my energy so it’s sustainable.

Peace

Haven’t written here for a while.
I am just working, taking improv classes, socializing and streaming whenever I can.
I do have insane ideas all the time, I just don’t act on them.In some cases, I just can’t act on them directly because for instance it would require me to know how to paint etc. But I truly have ideas for different seperate field all the time. My improv is improving as well I feel.

My twitch is not growing as fast, but my mentality towards it is improving.I have less performance anxiety, starting to find ways to deal with it.

Anyway peace.

Listened to Renaissance Man ZP today.
It’s nice. I’ve been having alot of art ideas and creative ideas, but none that were really related to streaming per se. Perhaps I’ll have to use my brain to try and connect the ideas to streaming somehow. We shall see and time will tell how this will manifest.

I’ve also started getting drawn even more to consume great art, whether that is music, books, film and even paintings and poems etc. I’ve always been open minded, but now it seems that I could appreciate these things even more. Time will tell.

Today is StarkQ and Inner Circle day.

I’ve been thinking lately that my social circle and social life has increased tremendously, almost like I feel I have to little time to just be alone. It’s weird how that happened. But I am thinking it’s StarkQ, Inner Circle and perhaps True Social still blooming. Lately I’ve been thinking of just sticking to these and rotating them on a needs-basis.

For instance this run I ran RM to improve my creativity and content creation for Youtube and Twitch. But I didn’t grow much there, at least not in a noticable way for me. But who knows maybe it’ll bloom later or I realize later like I did with True Social. However! I feel like my improv skills have improved insanely. I got compliments last night by a group member saying what have I been doing lately because I was on fire. Also our teacher seems excited about our group in general and I think he also notices my growth.

Anyway, I am thinking of keep doing RM ZP on the next run. Just to push it a bit further, but I am also considering True Social, seeing how my social life is blooming. Networking I truly believe is the most important thing on the planet. Everything is so much easier when you know people. In my life at least the best things have come from interdependence with other people, even though I secretely dream of being this powerful infinite productive individual who did it all by himself. But let’s face facts.

Washout starting today
I don’t know, I kinda feel like all the subliminals I use are working. It’s like a snowball effect, they just end up blooming sooner or later and only afterwards do I realize how much they worked. So I am thinking of using them as a need to basis. So for instance right now I want to really move towards being great at FPS games again and I know last time i ran GMX I improves so fast in Super People. Now I wanna see how fast it will improve my Overwatch gameplay. I am still streaming and have gained a few followers and viewers. Not the rapid followe growth I expected, but I am thinking this will also be a snow ball effect. One thing is for sure, is I am try harding so much less and still gain just as much progress. So that sounds promising. I also feel like they have always bloomed but rarely on my Twitch goal. But I believe perhaps my brain is working through other areas first, to make room for this Twitch dream. As I have come to a few realizations with regards to streaing and how I am sabotaging for myself by wasting energy on wrong things or simply trying to hard. Trying to force it too much, which ends up making the stream intense, serious and very dense.

Anyway, after this washout we go StarkQ, Inner Circle and GMX for the next run.

Current Overwatch rank: Platinum (DPS)
Twitch stats for Mars:

  • 1.1 average viewers
  • 2 followers
  • 34 unique viewers
  • 10 unique chatters
  • 37h streaming (very little)

Peace!

Im definitely interested to see how quickly youll improve in overwatch! Especcially given how complex of a shooter it is. It definitely seems like its the type of game where your entire stack can really shine with how mechanical and teambased it is, but its still a type of game where you can sometimes just outsmart the opponent.

I will hopefully show that in this topic. :slight_smile:
I took a day extra for washout for the reason of forgetting :slight_smile:
But today I will start the new run, this time running StarkQ ZP, Inner Circle ZP and Gaming Mastery X ZP.
I am around 2500 SR average on OW. I used to be around 3000, but fallen down.

Today we run Gaming Mastery X and Inner Circle ZP. Putting StarkQ to be run solo as the third title on the second subliminal day.

Peace

Still going at it. I just haven’t written any here. Dude these subliminals are magic, trust.

I just finished my washout and starting another run of GMX ZP, Inner Circle ZP and StarkQ ZP.
I feel my game sense has improved immensely, the only thing holding me back is lack of time. But I believe I will make it. This season I am aiming for Diamond, but I believe I will reach GM in the next. If I could play 2-3 hours a day, I would most likely hit GM this season, but with the time I have to game it will take time. GMX IS LIT!

Streaming wise, not so much growth sadly. I am hoping hitting a good skill level in OW might help me to at least stand out.

Besides that, I feel much cooler and charming and my social life in general is nice. I still suffer from anxiety, but your emotions never decide your worth as a person. But it’s just annoying. I am currently starting a bit of emotional work and meditation to calm my crazy monkey brain. I am thinking of running Sanguine or even DR in next run. We shall see, I truly believe given time these subliminals show themselves.

If you manage to get from diamond to GM in one season than damnn im really impressed. Thatd seriously proof just how insane subs truly are too. Ive been stuck in diamond for like a year at this point lol, got to one game below masters at one point but never made it.

Holy, that’s cool :slight_smile: So close too :slight_smile:
Well I don’t think that is reasonable goal for me, my goal is to reach diamond, and hopefully in the next season hit GM. But we shall see, I have a weird cocky belief it might go faster. :pray:

Today I played StarkQ and RM ZP. Did stream and a few people showed up which was cool.
Other then that been grinding my OW rank.

#91

Today is off day. Did some gaming and streaming, people are starting to show up to my OW streams.
I guess I have to keep it moving. I usually stop the game or get burned/bored and stop the game and lose the little community I’ve been building. What would happen if I just kept going? Would I keep growing? Seems like an easy question, but human nature makes it complicated.

Keep grinding, but remember to do it playfully.

Although it is good to improve your streaming strategy and understandable if you feel like this for now.

But your love for the games was what brought you there in the first so keep enjoying it and don’t begin to base your enjoyment on the amount of viewers.

Keep grinding and the rest will follow.

For sure, I couldn’t agree more. For me it’s a balance as always, but it’s so easy to lose sight of the reason for why you started this in the first place, so it’s good to keep your mind on the main reason; passion for gaming. Thanks.

So I’ve changed my stack a bit. I feel like I’ve been running subs for multiple months now and feel confident to handle more. I’ve done this in the past and failed, but we’ll see now what happens. I am basically running 4 titles now (at my own risk).

I am running GMX ZP and Inner Circle ZP, and then I am running StarkQ ZP and Renaissance Man ZP. Through out these months I’ve realized what I truly want. Reading through the objective lists StarkQ definitely fit my job and technical hobbies, but I am more of an artist and renaissance man is something I connect with alot. I look up to creative people, people who value expression more than anything. I view pure expression as almost a holy thing. So am runnin these 4 titles right now. If this doesn’ work out, I’ll switch to 3 ZP titles again and just rotate after needs.

I’ve realized lately my social life is so different, so many friends and adventures and social events. And I am the initiator or the host for all of them, connecting people together. So that’s super cool. Maybe it’s from StarkQ, maybe it’s from running True Social in the past, who knows. So good enough to rotate things, but I feel like I am ready to try 4 ZP titles. What I mean by this is that the benefits from the titles will probably keep blooming and growing and I don’t need to worry about missing out if I do end up failing 4 titles and needs to go back to 3 titles and rotating after needs.

I am still working on grinding to diamond in OW, I am at 300 SR from diamond now, so maybe I’ll hit it this week or the next. Who knows, in OW you can easily lose and fall down. It’s a team effort, and if not everyone, including me, are on point, you lose SR. But if I do reach Diamond so early, I will change my goal to Master.

What about a content creator subliminal? Take the creative aspect of renaissance man, the extreme fame of starkQ and the social confidence of daredevil? Until then, mix and match, rotate and listen. :slight_smile:

Subday, woop woop. Today I play GMX ZP and Inner Circle ZP… interesting, never thought about that I am actually playing IC ZP together with GMX ZP. In a game like Overwatch perhaps this helps me get into games with non-toxic and cooperative team mates, which is usually very important in ranked.

I started running IC ZP mainly to grow on Twitch, network, build a community perhaps. But it’s unclear what the objectives for IC ZP are, and perhaps we’ll see that soon and I can see how it fits with my goals.

Switch up… sticking to 3 and I am going for Renaissance Man, True Social and StarkQ.
Gaming Mastery X is nice, but OW is a really tough game to solo carry in. Even if I get 60 kills games can get super close simply because of how important the team comp is and team fights are. And I don’t have time to play 4-8 hours a day to literally grind it out. Plus it’s causing alot of recon playing GMX and really wanting to win but not being in a place where I can prioritize that. It’s so frustrating.

#96

I am doing Reinassance Man, True Social and StarkQ. Regarding Overwatch I’m around 2800 SR. So perhaps the GMX is still working it’s magic. The issue I had with GMX is that it made me feel recon if I didn’t think or play the game, which is tough because I have a full time job etc and a family. Also it made me think about the game all day, which took focus away from other priorities like my JOB. lol

So if you lack motivation to grind and got time, GMX is definitely the way to go for all you esport stars to be out there. But perhaps I can play it everynow and then together with my current stack we’ll see what I shall do.

Anyway, I am close to my goal which was to reach Diamond (SR 3000) in Overwatch.
