It has been 9 months since I started QL. Initially, it was QL ST 1-4 ZP T^2. I ran this from June 2022 until February 2023. It was tumultuous. The emotional healing was next level. The trauma and pain was not something I would want to experience again. But, going through it was necessary. Keeping consistent with this journal was part of the social leverage that I needed to follow through with my loop schedule.
From February 1, 2023 until now 3/28/2023, I’ve been running almost solely only QL ST4 ZP with QL ST1-4ZPT^2, Sleep ZP, and Beyond Limitless ZP sprinkled in here and there.
Summary of timeline of loop usage:
- I used QL ZP T^2 ST1-4 for 7 months
- I am nearing almost 60 days on QL ZP ST4. bought QL ZP vanilla and have been using it 80-90% of the time since February 1, 2023. Also sprinkled in Sleep ZP and Beyond Limitless ZP.
Summary of changes:
- I am far more relaxed. I can routinely pull 12-16 hour work days.
- I am working out 3 times a week consistently by taking martial arts classes. Social bonds are going to keep me going there.
- I am far more organized where I work. I started catching up on all the backlog. My work ethic has become ruthless. I found faster ways to work and output more. I get more work and responsibility as a result.
- I’m within 5 pounds of my target weight. I can see 4 out of my 6 packs
- Beyond Limitless ZP hits so much harder now.
- I meal prep every week, breakfast and lunch.
- I planned my finances and budget on an excel sheet and my financial decisions are driven now (finally) by logic rather than emotion.
- My social relationships have improved significantly. I can articulate my thoughts better and in a calmer, more relaxed fashion.
- I made Anki flashcards for data science and am reviewing them everyday. My memory is improving.
- I am ruthless with my sleep. Tonight I will drop dead in my bed at 10:00PM. Tomorrow morning I will wake up at 4:00AM
I’ve been experimenting with far higher loop volume. I ran 4 loops on Saturday and 2 loops on Sunday. This is just to see what happens, and so far I am pleased with the results. I did get a small headache throughout Monday morning. Tell me whatever you want to about recon. I am ready for it all. I’ve made it 9 months in and done far more loops than I care to admit on ZPT^2 strength. So far, vanilla ZP is working fantastically. ZPT^2, maybe it was the stage 1 and 2 stuff, but definitely had a far higher emotional impact and was a bit draining over some time.
Anyways, today I worked from 4AM until 5PM. I get home, and worked some more. I am writing out this post with as much care as if I was writing something for my work. There are no more boundaries or limits on what I do or how I should behave at home. I’m not going to kick back and watch some Youtube or TV.
With this being said, it is time to improve my stack. Initially, I mentioned that I was a simple man with simple tastes. It is time to change that. I want more money, more resources, and I want to do it ethically. Not selling drugs and ruining people’s lives.
I feel like I finally reached shore. Having been underwater and swimming for so long, a victim to my own emotional whim. I needed structure and order in my life, probably something that I lacked from childhood or it was not instilled properly. I realized that discipline is what will create the space for spontanaeity in my life. If I can handle the minutiae of the maintenance activities and the responsibilities at my job, I can free up my mind for the higher level career advancements and money making opportunities.
This bring me to my next thought: I am going to make more money. End of story. I’ve perused through the forums and read about R.I.C.H, EOG, and Mogul/AM.
Long story short, I want to make an extra $7500 within the next 3 months. I don’t know how I am going to do it but I have a bit of an idea where to start, by leveraging my current resources.
My martial arts sensei’s sensei will be coming and there is just a reverence for that guy I felt in the room that I must meet the man. Money is just a tool for enabling that meeting. Additionally, there is a future planned trip to meet other masters and mentors in the art, which excited me greatly.
$7500 sounds like a lot of money. To some it is. To me, someone who has been broke for so long…I don’t care how I will make it but I’ll figure something out to do within my spare hours to make it happen.
I think this will be a wonderful test of how far I can push myself. I realized that I have had very unhealthy thoughts about money and finances. I would hide behind stupid troll thoughts and deas perpetuated from memes on the internet and I have come to realize that all of that have been band aids not addressing the problem…
Why shouldn’t I be the one to be the winner in this world? I want a better home, nicer clothes, better people to hang out with. I want healthier food and I want a top chef to cook things for me. I want to meet the savants, the savages, and the masters of this world and revere and honor their world in whatever profession it may be. I want to travel the world and taste its fruits.
I want to lead by example in the world. I don’t want to be subject to the whim of someone else who is commanding my salary. I will put up with it only for a bit longer….until I figure out how to make money on my own with my own devices.
I know my head is in a better place. I’ve been a degenerate for far too long in my lifetime and I am finally seeing some real tangible changes in my world and I am not looking back to the past. Time to charge forward….now let me go get that credit card….
