bought genesis zp but haven’t ran it yet
3 minutes of Genesis ZP
powerful early results at the start of genesis
overcame a big fear/avoidance piece today and tackled my financial organization/taxes.
there’s a lot of negative charge around that, but, i’ve been at it for a few hours now.
this is the type of thing that a balanced sub does…
every part of genesis worked towards helping me get progress on this task.
-
it focused me on something extremely high leverage and important
-
it gave me confidence to do it and the most clear gameplan i’ve had in months
-
the light bit of healing to remove the blocks stopping me from doing it were huge
-
more “purpose and clarity” that this is what i need to do
-
ultimately this comes from a greater sense of wanting to “live life” to the fullest because, since i’m not financially organized, i tend to make a lot of money but remain afraid to spend it.
genesis is gonna be gooooood

Going to take a temporary break from this thread, test out Genesis ZP for a while in a solo thread dedicated to it, and then come back here to continue journaling once the genesis experiment is concluded.
Aaaaaaand I’m back.
Washout Day 1
LOVELY little run of Genesis, definitely had some pros and cons.
I feel like a took a much needed spiritual healing break to focus on the other areas of my life, ASIDE from ambition and wealth. Get my lifestyle locked in a bit, which is definitely important.
Which was great for my mindset, my happiness, my social connection.
One benefit of Genesis was that my relationship gained a lot of clarity through communication.
I wouldn’t even say DEEPENED as in got better… it’s already great…
We just managed to have a lot of conversations and get clarity on a lot of things.
The biggest personal clarification on my end is basically getting a lot more clarity on when exactly is the right time to propose. And it’s a lot sooner than I originally was thinking. Genesis helped me overcome some “objections” I was giving myself regarding that. I won’t get too deep in the weeds on this but essentially Genesis is giving me clarity on the rest of my life.
However, in regards to WEALTH, my main focus, after solo’ing Genesis, I’m feeling SLOW.
And maybe I needed to slow down, so I could be more intentional, so I could vroom vroom even faster without crashing.
But I feel a little bored, not living life to the fullest of my potential wealth-wise. So I’m excited to RAMP IT UP!
My financial anxiety is definitely down, my quality of relationship is definitely up, my social skills and purpose are amplified, I have a few vacations/days off/retreats that I booked for the summer over the last two weeks, and I spent pretty much 80% of my days over the last two weeks with my GF which she really appreciates.
Nice little reprieve from the grind, and I made money without grinding, too.
But now, back to work.
Thought to self: Hmm… I’ve been doing SO well with HOM, so I should probably go back to HOM after my washout (including Genesis)… but at the same time, I need that DRIVE, so what about Emperor? It’s HOM that’s been getting me all that success so yeah I’ll probably go HOM + Genesis next cycle, and if I need more work ethic, add in the commander or EOG1.

One thing people are surprised to hear is that despite all that I’ve been through, I never really did solve procrastination.
It’s just not the most important lever.
If I work 6 hours per day instead of 8, my work is 25% less effective.
However, within those 6 hours per day, if I’m doing the right things, I can be 100x more effective.
But listening to Genesis has me taking stock of my life.
Coffee? Don’t need it.
YouTube? Delete it?
Walking? Bring it back.
Meditation? Bring it back
Porn? Tried watching it today. Super bored. Turned it off. And I have no shame around porn either, since it’s not frequent for me. But I just had zero interest.
The cynical part of me is saying “we’ll see how long this motivation lasts!”

Washout day 2
a friend of mine has been listening to EOG1
He said,
“I think the subliminals are working!”
I asked how he knows. He said…
“I’m working my ass off. I’ve also realized that I focus on the small shit that doesn’t grow the company but keeps me busy and prevents me from spending time building the company. I’ve had a fear of building the company. Fuck that fear!”
I love EOG1. Even when you don’t believe it works, it works!

That’s awesome that you have other friends open to this stuff bro!
Only friends I have actively listening to subs are you, @Monarch and another online friend who only lurks and doesn’t have an account here.
How’d you introduce that to them? Are they from the lab?

LOL after enough time, 9 times out of 10, they want it sooner than we think.
This is a piece of healing I’ve had recently too, regarding the complete lack of efficacy of the word “should” and changing that to “I want to”
“I want to do some zone 2 cardio” Ok mind, thanks for making that clear, let’s do it/figure it out
Changes the game
I introduce subs to people as part of my coaching in the lab, privately, and if they’re really open minded, and it’s received well cuz i have authority.
This guy isn’t from there, he’s just a close friend, I introduced them to him 2 years ago and he brushed it off but now that he’s staying with me I just played it and he started noticing a change

Deleting YouTube was actually crazy.
When I sat down for lunch, I wanted to pull out a youtube video.
When I had a no-show I wanted to pull out a youtube video.
When I was about to go to the gym, I wanted to pull out a youtube video… and every time I try to pull out a “music mix” for working out, I end up watching memes.
This was definitely an amazing decision.
My work ethic is great today and yet I feel more balanced, like, I feel like I’m working hard, but not at a frenetic pace, not pushing myself past my limits in an unhealthy way, mentally I’m happy, physically I’m busy.
Also didn’t drink coffee today which might’ve helped! Slower and more stable.

Washout day 3
I go to Medellin Colombia with my girlfriend on Sunday
My heart wants to go all in on sales right now.
My brain is saying “take time off and socialize/have fun”
But I have a false belief that it has to be one or the other.

Focused from 9-5
Living life LARGE from 5-9
(My girlfriend will still be working 8 hours a day, so, I will have a consistent schedule)

Went out and socialized
I don’t want to read too much into m PERCEPTION of what happened
But my observations were
-
I was quieter and was ok with people “thinking I’m not talking enough”
-
I crushed it when we randomly played tennis even tho it was quite dark
-
I was very comfortable being myself and doing my own thing, had zero people pleasing tendencies
