The Journey Begins: Warrior

A septillion thanks to you for that excellent explanation of how subs work. The old school song is playing in my head, I Can See Clearly Now. Namaskar.:pray::pray::+1:

Mindā€™s Eye is a game changer. Everyone needs to run this sub.

I completely underestimated the impact of visualization on our day-to-day lives. Mindā€™s Eye helps with anything you want it to, I think itā€™s going to be a permanent fixture from here on out. Even when this journal comes to an end (and by that, Iā€™m implying the end of my use of Muay Thai Mastery) and I begin my 3rd chapter of my subliminal journey, I expect Mindā€™s Eye to be there.

While it hasnā€™t helped me for intellectual benefits per say, it has been amazing for Muay Thai. Iā€™ve been able to visualize myself doing things so much easier, and itā€™s allowing me to pick things up a lot faster. Mindā€™s Eye is a dark horse for anyone looking for increased performance in any physical task. Hopefully as I run it more and more, Iā€™ll be able to learn how to apply it to leverage the law of attraction and mental tasks, but the physical benefits have been huge.

Week 2 of running 3 subs a day has been significantly easier than week 1 and all of that insta-recon. Building tolerance can be done pretty quickly, Iā€™m pretty happy about that. I wonder how much that weekend-washout had to do with it feeling much better, I suspect it significantly helps ease the load from the 3 subs.

Iā€™ve been having difficulty lately with facing my fears. Ever since my concussion in December, Iā€™ve been hesitant to spar people that are better than me. Iā€™m wondering what to do to address this issue, changing the stack seems like an easy way out so I want to actually address these issues head-on myself.

Expansion. Restriction. Balance.

Been reflecting on those concepts lately. Expansion is the drive for progress, restriction is the return to the self. The juxtaposition of these two concepts imply a sense of balance in the dynamic, so to add a balance on top of all of that seems redundant at first.

But it only seems redundant because of the narrow view that we (or at least I) tend to have; Iā€™m looking at the pursuit of self-development through a vacuum, which dismisses the inter-connected nature of the way we live our lives. There is no it without the other, there is no self-made person.

That scares me, but it shouldnā€™t because thatā€™s how weā€™ve all always lived. The idea that Iā€™ve ever accomplished anything by myself is a lie I say to myself to boost my own self-worth. We are nothing without others, the bit-parts of our lives are anything but that.

Had my first crazy dreams in weeks today, I donā€™t remember the details but there was a younger person who I was speaking with that tried to kill me.

These wild dreams tend to happen after Iā€™ve watched some sort of movie or TV show, because the dreams tend to follow a similar aesthetic.

Forgot to mention how the other day, I landed a super smooth trip in clinch while my opponent was throwing a knee. I have no idea how I tripped him unfortunately, it just happened. I didnā€™t force it, I donā€™t remember moving myself in a specific way, I just moved a bit and all of a sudden he was on the ground and people in the background were yelling ā€œoooweeeeā€.

Todayā€™s the final day of the 3 sub experimentation cycle. Now my 4 day washout will determine whether or not I will continue with this routine.

I have an idea: I think Iā€™m going to watch a bunch of movies that feature the Stark/INTP archetype and see what impact they have on my subconscious. Iā€™ll be able to see the results through the dreams that I have, since using Stark while watching a lot of movies has caused me to dream a lot, in a world similar to the movie that Iā€™m watching. I havenā€™t had many dreams lately, so I want to try to trigger that again and see what happens.

Hahahahahahhahahahah
I had a similar idea yesterday, except I was thinking about watching movies, shows or even anime (if I find) related to marketing and stuff.

Guess weā€™re both trying to level up ourselves by utilizing the RAIKOV effect of Stark :wink:

Today was the first time I ever legit dominated someone who was actually decent. It felt so easy, when I felt his weight and force I just intuitively knew how to throw him. I threw him once but let him down softly, and helped him back up and he thanked me. When I threw him again on the ground I tried to brace his fall and make it easier but his legs got in the way so I got tangled and he dragged me down with him.

Dude makes a comment saying ā€œyou were able to throw me but you shouldnā€™t be falling tooā€ and I paused and responded, telling him ā€œdonā€™t take it too personalā€ and he fist bumps me and says ā€˜no no, no problemā€™ and we go again. So I wasnā€™t really thinking about it, but we clinch again and when I got the opportunity, I made the man fly, legs in the air and everything. Didnā€™t even expect it to go that well for me, I was surprised.

So my cousin, who I taught about crypto about 9 months ago, has become a pro at flipping NFTs and has been making boatloads of money since.

Meanwhile my crypto portfolio has been going down with the market, to the point where Iā€™m not even paying attention right now. I need to stop waiting around and start doing some shit.

Next cycle will be my last MTM cycle for the time being
Unfortunate to see that this journal will be coming to an end soon, because Iā€™ve had a lot of fun with MTM. The improvement Iā€™ve made running this sub over the past 3 months has been amazing.

Unfortunately life happens, and other priorities come calling. Iā€™ve ignored a direct development of my intellect for long enough, I canā€™t do it anymore. I am also fed up sitting and watching people make money while Iā€™m frozen by inactivity and the fear of failure, while I continue to make ezcuses like a lack of time.

Alright. Day 1 of the final cycle of Muay Thai Mastery X. Itā€™s also day 1 of the end of the final cycle of this journal. The warrior journey must be paused for the time-being, while the journey of the intellectual begins anew.

Iā€™m sad. I donā€™t want to end the use of this sub, itā€™s just been so amazing. I will definitely run it again in the future but other priorities are calling me.

So to close off my final cycle of Muay Thai Mastery X for now, Iā€™ll be running it 3 times a week. Still running the Billions pattern, but with 2 subs a day instead of 3 because recon was horrible throughout my last cycle (no productivity, very snappy at people, etc.).

Iā€™m going to run MTMX with ME on Day 1, and then MTMX with Stark on Day 2. Rinse and repeat. Still gonna stick to 7 minute loops. March 9 will be the last day of the cycle.

So interesting situation at work. Pissed off a lot of people in higher positions, not sure if it was a symptom of recon or if I was just being an idiot.

It is what it is :man_shrugging:t4:

This week has just been exhausting. No break in sight, not until Saturday.

It creates doubt in me, about my work ethic. Admittedly my sleep has been awful as of late, so surely that canā€™t help my general state.

Then again, these doubts are normal to feel. I guess itā€™s proof of my groundedness. I can definitely do it.

Losing faith in my current partner, sheā€™s showing signs that are very concerning to me for the long-term future.

Itā€™s just frustrating, I hate the idea of bouncing from one girl to another because the idea of moving on from person to person just sounds so exhausting. But it also makes me stick around and tolerate much more bullshit than I need to.

I think the biggest difference with me now though, is that I wonā€™t lose myself and my life completely the day we inevitably end. Iā€™m just going to start to brace myself for when that day comes.

I wish that I didnā€™t have such a need for companionship or a romantic partner at the very least. My life is significantly easier that way, but the need for someone to share it with is annoying. I just need to focus on myself and my own growth, and stop letting the pursuit of women distract me. It makes me want to run Heartsong though. Maybe one day, when Iā€™m a little more on my two feet.

Stark makes me dream like crazy, just extremely vivid narratives from beginning to end. I wish I could remember my dreams more, I just had an insane dream last night related to a forum I used to visit when I was in my teens that turned into a videogame in beta called ā€œVampireā€, with some really intricate parts to it. Used forum posts as a means to collect feedback on certain aspects of the game, and there was a lot of focus on the effect of the sun and the moon in relation to the environment, right down to the angles of the sun/moonlight in relation to the main character.

Itā€™s clear to me that Starā€™s innovation component manifests itself in these dreams I have. Crazy stuff.

Super intense day, did a back-to-back-to-back so Iā€™m feeling exhausted. Got my ass kicked too in a boxing spar, my head hurts (but no concussion woohoo).

My main coach was telling me how he wants to start seeing me come to the sparring sessions more, he wants me to get sessions in regularly. Iā€™ve got a problem with not using my angles enough, and not throwing enough volume. Iā€™m tentative 'cause I donā€™t want to get countered into oblivion, but I canā€™t just chill and do nothing either.

Good news though, for the first time in my life I had someone tell me that I looked ā€œfreaking strongā€, which genuinely surprised me.
