Hey everyone, welcome back to reading about my adventures as I now set up my journal for the '25 year. I’m looking forward to journaling more frequently once again. Last year was truly massive in terms of its changes and some of those things took me away from journaling. However, in the latter half of that year, I rediscovered the value of journaling as it helped me integrate my new experiences in a way other methods simply cannot.
Last few runs
Funnily enough, I’ve not started my official stack just yet. It’s been a strange last few runs:
- Last run of last year: ME, WB, Primal
- Jan 1 run: ME, KB ST4, RICH (full durations for all titles)
- Idea behind this run was to set up a manifestational intention for the big themes I want to focus on this year (relationships/sexuality and wealth)
- Originally meant to be followed by a 1-week washout
- Jan 4 (bonus run): ME, KB ST3, Primal
- Done in preparation for some hangouts and events on Jan 4 (more on that below) where I felt I needed to be more prepared.
It’s interesting to note that I faced no identifiable recon from these switch-ups. I suspect ME is massively helping in that regard. Anyways, my next planned run is expected to be on Jan 9.
Focuses
While I’ve privately written down many goals (wishes, even) for 2025, there are ultimately a handful of things that truly matter to me:
- Dating and then getting into a relationship. Once again, this goal will continue to define my stack.
- Owning real estate. Can I do it? Financially it’s become within my means to be able to pull this off, but I have to dedicate the time and energy to find a good place in this area. Luck needs to also be on my side as far as opportunities go.
- Doing well in my career. Once again, I acknowledge that my developed career is the basis on which I’ve been able to do all that I did last year. It’s only thanks to it that my stack can focus mostly on social/romance stuff now (compared to a few years ago, when I ran CHOSEN for half a year to successfully get my key promotion). After a key realization last year, I’m more motivated to do well in my career so I can continue earning a lot and funding my lifestyle and goals.
- One example of something more of a wish when it comes to money is seeing if I can monetize one of my hobbies. It got fairly big and I saw the potential to make more money from it. That’s a moonshot!
Planned Stacks
This is all absent new titles and the advent of name-embedded mains (which we know always disrupts our stacks).
Next Stack:
- Mind’s Eye (ME): Huge results booster that is likely also massively reducing recon.
- Wanted Black (WB): This is for both physical shifting and attraction. I had placed on my calendar last for Jan 1 to consider using PS instead, so after reviewing that I decided once again for WB. But I do know this time it should be stacked with another romance-related title to develop all my qualities.
- What would happen if I ran WB for a whole year with the right things stacked to boost its results (such as ME or KB ST4) and to add a sharper edge to myself (such as Primal)? How much can I change? I wonder.
- Primal: Keep developing alpha attributes that allow me to be more and more authentic and raw, allowing me to do better with women.
- Ultimate Programmer X (UpX): Being the only title I can safely add in as a fourth title (as I tested last year), I intend for this to be in my stack year-round to support my job. I was able to do this last year through micro loops on working days, so I’m going to utilize the same strategy this year.
Other titles I’ve considered include:
- Daredevil: Title I had immense success with last summer as I talked to over 100 new people in 3 months. This title truly gave me fearless and energetic socialization, I love it.
- Dragon Reborn RED ST4: There’s usually a month I dedicate to healing each year, so this would make its debut there. But I could do this only if I got the OK to go straight to this from DR ST4 which I ran last in '23, before the existence of RED/GOLD programs.
- Khan Black ST4: ME is not to be in my stack for that long, I just wanted to get my new stack off the ground. And I don’t believe I’ve gotten everything out of Khan Black just yet. I’ve also heard stacking KB ST4 with WB would make for some amazing results.
- Not to mention, there’s still Khan Black V2 which hasn’t been released yet.
- SSX: I of course can continue to get better at game, which running SSX would help me at.
- Heartsong: I also considered this title last year, but never ran it. I suspect it’s a bit underpowered right now…Anyway, I still want to continue developing overall attraction first. Last year I set up the deadline of “Start running Heartsong on June 1 of next year” but right now I am not sure if that gives sufficient time.
This year, no custom titles (name or voice embedded) are planned.
Sometimes, I wish it was OK to run more than 3 titles at once. But I realize that results on everything are going to be slower that way.
