This weekend marks my 3 year anniversary using sub club programs.

Kicked off year 1 with Dragon Reborn

Year 2 kicked off with Khan Black.

Last year around this time was a full run thorough DRR followed by DRG.

Will year 4 kick off with Aeon? Will decide by next cycle. In need of a proper washout and will decide during washout. Seems like it is the next progression from KB. Struggling with phone and dopamine addiction lately. Could use a dopamine detox for sure. Perhaps the action scripting in Aeon could assist with more mindful use of tech

Ended up purchasing Aeon. Ran a 2 min loop prior to the Toastmasters BBQ Saturday night. Felt like I took my social skills to the next level that night.

Ran a 5 min loop yesterday along with short loops of ASBR and TS/IC custom. Gave a speech at toastmasters last night and won best speaker for the first time this year. Had the small audience gasping at times during my story regarding a safety incident and related it to Assymetric risk/reward. Only used 1 or 2 filler words.

Overall feeling of pure contentment and enjoying life right now.

Tomorrow is last day before washout. Will give 7 min a go. The money custom will have to wait for at least the next 4 cycles now.

Have a sweat lodge ceremony this Saturday. Happens to be day 3 of my washout, perfect timing for a clearing event like that.

Possible IC manifestation.

This is the next 4 cycles I’ve put into my calendar.

June 17 Aeon ST1, DDTS/IC custom, EOG ST3

July 15 Aeon ST2, DDTS/IC custom, EOG ST3

Aug 12 Aeon ST3, DDTS/IC custom, EOG ST4

Sept 9 Aeon ST4, DDTS/IC custom, EOG ST4

May microloop ASBR as it’s still one of my fave’s and it’s rare I go a full cycle without it. The DDTS/IC custom is starting to bloom. Noticed my speaking and social skills are much improved the past couple
Months.

Looking to pick up on other people’s micro expressions going forward. A micro expression typically lasts half a second or less, a quick reaction that reveals their true feelings before they attempt to hide it. Have noticed a couple lately.

Aeon I’m committed to going through all the stages then probably stay on ST4 awhile after. I like the features in both EOG 3&4. Will give each one 2 cycles, feel more drawn to ST4 slightly.

Will stay away from the copy of HTLTB as not to derail my stack plans just like I have AOW.

Tonight at toastmasters I gave the same speech as last week based on evaluation/feedback. Another lady had the same project these past 2 weeks.

Last week I won best speaker award for the night. Wasn’t expecting to win it again this week as I no longer had the element suspense this week with my story.

I showed enough improvement from last week that I won the award two weeks in a row! This time I ditched the notes. The best way to give a speech without notes is to simply practice it without notes and don’t take them up to the lecturn as a crutch either.

We are now on summer break for the club. The speech had to do with safety in the frame of asymmetric risk/reward. I may give it at work next time I do the morning read.

I’ve gone to war with my phone screen time. The past month I’ve averaged 3.5 hours of screen time. Often times even watching TV I play on the phone. Like a good show isn’t enough anymore.

I’ve set limits for FB and YouTube of 20 min and 30 min for my stocks app. At work I set a timer for 30 minutes where I don’t look at my phone, then when the timers up I’ll have a peak for a couple minutes.

Will power only works for a day or 2, I need a systematic way to reduce it and this is a good start. So far the average for this week is 2 hrs 20 min. Better but want to get the avg under 2 hrs.

AEON

I’ll give my take on how this title has built in safeguards against using it for evil and it may have more to do with the nature of consciousness itself.

Summary

As one rises in level of consciousness one develops more spiritual energy/power.
The temptation to use power for nefarious purposes at some point will arise. If one gives in to that temptation, the level of consciousness drops resulting in less spiritual power/energy. There’s stories of fallen guru’s that were once at a high level that fell in consciousness and lost their power.

An example is the Siddi’s which occur somewhere around the consciousness level 580-600. The Siddi’s are often accompanied by the miraculous that happen as a result of the high level of consciousness not because the person is special. The moment they take personal credit for the miraculous is when they loose their power by falling into pride. Then they fake the Siddi’s to keep up the charade.

A metaphor would be a big diesel truck with 500 HP pulling a heavy trailer up the mountain holding 60 MPH. All of a sudden it blows a turbo now instead of 500 HP it only has 190 HP and can’t make it up the rest of the way and has to pull over.

I don’t know the details of how the scripting looks to safeguard this, there’s also the nature of consciousness itself as a built in safety factor so to speak.

Market went up significantly breaking all time highs in the process. Don’t want to be too aggressive chasing gains when we may be at a short term top.

This past weeks screen time was 1h 31 min. Previous week was 3h 27 min. Feels like a waste of time to be on my phone more than 5 minutes.

Ran Aeon ST1 15 min today. Processed some grief today also. Reading posts regarding pet adoptions seem to be getting me lately.

Considering a return to the field this fall which will involve steady out of town work. Won’t be able to have any pets if I do. Better not make any trips to the animal shelter anytime soon or I’ll be tied to in town work.

It’s a good job with descent pay, just bored with it.

Market continues to float higher to new all time highs along with my portfolio’s. Still have descent portion of cash reserves in the event of a sell off.

Day 2 of washout. Next cycle will move to ST2 of Aeon, repeat EOG ST3/TT-IC custom.
