RoM is out buddy
Will you be adding it your stack?

Sounds good brother. I believe there’s huge value to be had if you commit. You going to try RoM?
Definitely, mainly for the cognitive and focus abilities, also for it’s partial similarity to ME. I am also a bit spiritual and like to look at things like gaming, and anything I try to do or achieve, from multiple angles, even spiritual. Similarly to how meditation helps with stress/anxiety but also in a way let’s you have more bandwidth to think about and concentrate on any task, like programming at my job.
Focus is key though. And I am thinking of alternating between RoM and ME, and let my third title be one of the Limitless versions. My problem is that I can see benefit to my goal from all subs, more or less. I want to choose the ones that seem backed up by other users as proven benefit for performance in games. Seems RoM also has benefited in this endeavour, just like ME.
I will stick to ME and GMX this cycle and then on the next cycle go with RoM. If I have decided on a third title, it will be included as well. If not, then it will just be GMX, RoM and ME.
How about you?
I will try one cycle of DR mindeye and RoM that will be a lot of visualization boost 
im into a lot of spiritual stuff so think it will work out beautifully later gonna change with GMX but might swap some cycles of mind eye with ROM

Me too, I enjoy ME. I want to keep it on an alternating basis or in my stack all the time if possible.
I seem to code much easier and faster with it, specially when my changes are part of a big flow and might depend on earlier parts of the flow or might affect things further ahead in the flow.
Usually this type of changes take longer for me because I need to test every step of the way, and then adjust missmatches or unintended outputs, but now with ME, when I go to test said parts, the new changes seem to work beautifully with them.

DAY 19 - GMX & ME
I listened to both GMX and ME for 15 min each, one while on the treadmill at the gym and one an hour or so later. Had a lingering anxiety during work, and a bit of recon, obsessive thoughts. About RoM lol, trying to figure out other peoples reactions to it and how it fits my goal.
Being excited about something is one thing, but obsessing about it when I really would have liked to be more focused on work is something else.
I really need to set aside time for my hobbies and the research they demand from me so I have a clear idea when it’s a good time to explore them, like SC for example. But this is kind of a personality trait or habit I have that is usually under control, but every now and then I can become obsessed and lose myself in something. More than I would like to. Thank God I am aware of this at least 
ME is great for both gaming and my job as a software developer. It’s amazing. Which is why I am considering adding RoM and QL. They both will aid in my job and my gaming goal, with their cognitive benefit. Although RoM seem mostly for spirituality, something I love, but perhaps with no direct aim for gaming. At the same time, ME is mainly for visualization and that has helped me in work and gaming, and an anecdote or two seem to say both ME and RoM have helped with gaming as well. So perhaps this is as direct I can get using major subliminals.
But I plan to finish this cycle before additions. Leaning heavy towards RoM and Limitless or Quantum Limitless.
Anyway, today I don’t have clear time for gaming, perhaps I will get in a game later tonight. It’s family time and WC semi-finals today.

DAY 20 - AscCha
Today is rest day, and only opportunity this week to listen to AscCha, so I listened to it. I am experimenting with 30s loops as this sub has felt too powerful for me. I accidently listened to 2.5 minutes though after the gym. It felt nice, I was a bit distracted again at work.
I came to the conclusion that I am obsessing about what subs to run in next cycle, and my obsessions is there because I am unsure what to do, and I am trying to force myself to figure it out NOW, NOW, NOW, like my life is dependend on it. The key here is obsessiveness and force. Probably related to recon and negative personality traits of mine. I need to realize this in time and accept that certain decision take time, and won’t be easier just because I stress it.
I am glad I saw this after 2 days. Usually I can engage in this behavior for a week minimum. I hope that I can sense this heavy obsessiveness earlier in the future and just let go and let the decision emerge. Some things have pros and cons and easy to discern, but when both choices are perceived as equally good, it’s hard. Also would love for the obsessiveness to decrease.
I will stick to GMX and ME. I’ll add RoM as a third title, because just like ME, I’ve heard it benefits gaming and I knew right away I want it because of the similarities. I’ll have to wait on deciding on which Limitless I want to run. Also I am not sure I want to switch out ME with Limitless at the moment. If anything I want to double down on it. I also don’t want to change my first subs because I think they will have much bigger impact the longer I run them.
Anyway, next cycle, which is in like a week, we’ll go GMX, ME and RoM.
Another WC tonight, but I gotta hit up a game or two and aim warmup.
POST-POST-NOTES:
Played 3 games and won 1, so that is 2 losses. In the first game I would have liked to aim better, I was so rusty. I also played a hero I shouldn’t have played, a hero I am bad at. In the second game it went better, I played a hero I can play. Third game, we didn’t really have any team communication, but I also missed alot of easy shots with Pharrah, something I am usually pretty good at. I switched characters around as well to counter the enemy teams picks. But it didn’t work out. Perhaps I should have played Tracer here.
Also my aim was a bit off today, perhaps I do need to keep aim practicing? Just to keep my sword sharp so to speak.

DAY 21 - GMX & ME
Listened to both Gaming Master X and Mind’s Eye for 15 minutes each.
Wen’t pretty well. I think the flu is going around, I felt a bit low yesterday and today I had sore throat and a headache. Weird, but I am going to hit up some herbs like curcumin and reishi and vitamin c/d to help my body deal with this. I decided to work remotely today to not risk affecting my co-workers.
This is also concludes the cycle one done!
We did climb 5 ranks last season, and we have more to go.
Also, as I said earlier I’ll be doing GMX, ME and RoM in my next cycle, and I will stick to it to the best of my abilities, for some longterm benefit. To sqeeze the juice out of the scripts, and give me chance to take action and build better habits around them. Also for ME and RoM as they have stories of increasing gaming performance. But I can’t promise if a more “niched” and focused sub comes out I won’t switch any of them out.
Those who have seen my other journal know I am also into streaming on Twitch. So I plan to at some point mid next year go back to fame, social, and communication subs. Perhaps a custom if no content creator specific sub comes out.
POST-POST-NOTES
Rough games and rough day, been feeling like I am getting the cold, which sucks because I had it like 2 weeks ago? I didn’t think one could get a cold again so soon, never happened before.
I also had rough games, I can’t even aim. Bottom scores too. 
But I knew this journey wouldn’t be that easy, nonetheless, it sucks.
So this has happened a few times now, where I have a week full of anxiety, worse performance at work and at home, and it makes me feel bad, especially at work, becauase I value productive coding etc, and then I find out I am hit by some sickness. Which could explain the lower performance of my body and mind.
So next time if I go from a certain level of productivity to a drastical lower one, unless there is any other obvious factor, I am going to assume I am getting sick and try to really relax that day, so that it doesn’t last that long. Hammer down vitamins and herbs and chug tons of water, sleep and nap. It’s an experiment, but maybe I am onto something here.
DAY 22 - WASHOUT I
Today starts the washout. I am feeling a bit better, I slept longer today to give my body time to recover etc. It is definitely the flue or a cold. I will work remotely today too as well.
Last two days games have been rough. One thing was how bad my aim has gotten, which is a mix of me not playing in a while and/or not doing aim practice sessions, also probably this sickness and factors in.
We need to use losing games as a step to improve. This is most likely where we learn the most, so I need to rewatch the VOD’s and study what I did and what could I have done better, regardless if team made mistakes or not. Also, I need to keep aim practicing. So I started with the next aim practice playlist, the Intermediate one. I think I will go back to beginner after a month to see how much I’ve improved and perhaps take a few personal records.
POST-POST-NOTES
Played one game which I lost
I played good in defend, but on attack I switched hero. I should have stayed the same hero or picked another hero with the potential for long distance kills.

DAY 23 - WASHOUT 2
Damn I think I have a sinus infection that leads my inflammation to push on a nerve that makes half my mouth ache. Don’t remember last time a cold gave me so much pain.
Anyway, washout is still going, trying to relax and recover. Hopefully I can manage some games later.
DAY 24 - Washout 3
My god, I has the two worst nights of this cold/flu.
I did play OW2 yesterday and the results were 8 wins 5 losses. I also played later in the evening and had a surplus of wins on flex mode (any role).
I really shouldn’t have played though. I feel like OW is a demanding game and if you’re fighting a cold and try-harding in competitive, then recovery is going to take longer.
DAY 25 - WASHOUT 4
Starting to feel better regarding my cold/flu. Have been pondering something related my obsessiveness, and that things that are meant to be a tool or a ”aid”, in my big toolset or resources becomes the thing that takes all my energy and time, and I lose sight of the actual goal.
Example: I want to be a pro soccer player. So I look into getting a good pair of shoes. I perhaps join a community that discusses and rates shoes. What should just have been some research becomes the goal. I spend hours, days, weeks, trying to master shoes, how they are created, how I can maximize my shoe usage, perhaps join other communities discussing exercises to wield shoes better. I went from wanting to become a soccer pro to a guy who is trying to master shoes.
Action speaks louder than words. If you say you want to become rich but spend most hours of the day researching subs, well your action say you are trying to become a master subliminal user. You are deluding yourself. Yes, subs is a tool and will aid you. Self-help, meditation is a tool and will aid you. But these things should never take over your whole life.
Sometimes I spend and plan my whole day to be exercises, meditation exercises, affirmations, visualizations to reach my goals. My initial goal or vision for my life was not spending every hour with intentional sself-help exercises.
Anyway, in my case, it’s self-sabotage. Spending hours, days researching subliminals, rather then just pick a few, do your stack, and live life.

DAY 26 - Washout 5
Day 5 of washout 
Feeling a bit better and the end of the washout is today. So tomorrow we’ll start on cycle 2, and using GMX, ME and RoM 
Feeling excited 
I also feel excited for getting better health wise, new cycle, new sub, I can game again.
Take care of yourselves! 
DAY 27 - GMX and ME
Yo we back.
Today I ran GMX and ME, 15 minutes each, while doing my aim practice routine. I’ve stepped up to the intermediate playlist, so that is nice, a harder challenge definitely, as I seem to struggle.
Nonetheless, I am just enjoying the ride. No stress.
I played 6 games so far and won half of them. I still went from Gold 3 to Gold 1. So one rank away from Platinum 5, which I ended last season with. Aiming for a higher rank in Platinum this X-mas vacation I have.
I am just not stressing it as much. Being sick, grounds you, makes you realize the things that matter and that is gaming. Ranking up is nice, but never a higher priority than just having fun gaming bro.
Peace

DAY 28 - REST
Rest day today, I’ve been chilling and recovering.
I did a run of aim practice and about to hit up some games.
I sense myself getting pulled into a “toxic” mindset for success and “doing”. Where I start comparing myself to others, think of all the actions I should take. But I am already taking action, the rest should just be recovery, so our action taking is potent.
Sleep is the best for instance.
POST-POST-NOTES
Played two games, which I lost. I should have switched earlier, but all in all I played good DPS I would say.
I switched in second game and we rocked them, but as they switched again after that, I should have switched back to the first hero I played.
DAY 29 - RoM
Today is sub day and time for my third sub, Revelation Of Mind. I played it for 15 minutes shortly after waking up.
One thing is back, and that is lack of sleep at night. I just son’t sleep, perhaps it’s my brain processing the subs or some other factor.
I am thinking of things I read here about RoM. Perhaps some simple ways to ground myself and perhaps meditate 
. Nothing fancy, just a couple minutes. Grounding is easy, just gotts remember to do it. I view it as feeling physical sensations intensely. They are not intense per se, but like stepping with your naked feet on ground outside is something we never do anymore, especially now that it’s cold, it becomes intense when you do it.
I personally thinking of a cold face wash as a way to ground myself. Perhaps some stretching. All natural and normal behavior.
We shall see if we can get a few games in today. Most likely not, preparations for xmas. In the late night I have enjoyed a game called Dark and Darker. Fun game, I feel I am learning it super fast.
Seem to be drawn to nature documentaries. Most likely just me exposing myself to things I believe RoM will grow from or expand on.
Merry Xmas!
POST-POST NOTES
Alot of revelations, one that will require me to meditate and reflect more upon, is how I associate success with alot of petty and pointless shit, like conflict and arguments. Like it’s a fight/struggle. I believe success can be a fight, a struggle, if you want, just like you can start walking in the snow towards a destination without shoes if you want, but that is pointless. Why struggle like that? No one cares, and even if people care, it’s petty to struggle unessecarily. You can achieve without the struggle. You can do it the ez way, or the hard way. Both lead to the same place perhaps, but one way is much nicer. It’s your choice.
Also, gaming wise, I seem to get a-ha moments more frequently, and find a better move soon after a loss, if not directly. These moments and better strategies just come without me thinking hard about it. I immediately see why I lost, and remember the bigger picture and impactful principles, and see a vision (animated) of how it could have turned out.
Loving GMX, ME and the RoM combo.

Have you tried playing Super Hexagon? I played like it for a bit yesterday and it already feels like my hand eye coordination has improved. It’s on sale on steam right now for around 1 dollar.

Day 40 - GMX and ME
Haven’t had time to run my subs today, plan to run them before bed tonight.
Been gaming and celebrating xmas. I haven’t been playing OW2 as I much as I would like to (for my goal). There’s been this new addicting game called Dark And Darker that I’ve been playing. It’s in alpha and will only be available for a short while, and I’ll be going back to OW2 after.
I feel a bit guilty, because I am playing a diff game and not working towards my goal in OW2.
I have also been streaming while gaming, working on my secondary dream, becoming a full time streamer someday.
No, I haven’t. Currently addicted to Dark And Darker. Good to hear man, you using GMX?
XOXO
