Year of the Dragon Emperor

I’m out of likes, so I’ll share. That was an encouraging read, truly. I’ve known you a few years, and the things you mentioned which died away have occupied your awareness a long time. Staying the course a full year is a feat I’m jealous of since, like you, I create my own suffering. That sentence can sum up many years of our lives. And we’re changing this internal script, courtesy of SC.

Do you have a direction post-DR already? I’m still digesting that post so I’ve not read prior replies of yours yet. :sweat_smile:

If only everybody would take a note of this.

And congratulations on your progress.

  • Now let’s see how I did with my goals.

GOALS, EMPEROR: Increase the confidence and internal status, and respect boost I achieved with Dominus.

Achieved. I feel a LOT more confident, like I am a lot higher value than I ever have. Others, including my wife are treating me with more respect.

Get myself and my family to a stable financial situation,

Half achieved. By working my ass off, I kept anything bad from happening, and was able to think of or manifest ways of getting through every time. We are likely to find a lot more stability in a couple of months too.

get my career which has been very stagnant back on track.

Not achieved. I think I have the internal tools to do it from here now.

Optional goal: To actually make use of my open relationship status.

Not achieved. With all of the working, I never really had the opportunity to try.

GOALS, DRAGON REBORN: Eliminate the remaining fears, issues, self sabotage tendencies, and dysfunctional inhibitions which have been getting in the way of me achieving many major goals in life, and being the man I am meant to be.

Achieved, at least to a VERY large extent.

Yessir. Next year is going to be about improving my social skills as they relate to professional success. I may rotate that out with an attraction and Seduction stack every twelve weeks depending on how things go at first.

Thank You. Yep these things are not a majick wand, but if you put the time in, you get the results.

  • I just finished the last loop of RICH and Chosen. The Year of the Dragon Emperor is officially over.
    Further discussion is of course welcome.

In five days I will be starting The Year of the Sexcessful Emperor.

  • This is my third night of walking fifteen miles a shift, and so far tonight doesn’t feel nearly as rough as the last two. I’m adapting.
    One difference I’m noticing since the last time I had to adapt to this, which was a few years ago, I’d that I’m a hell of a lot less mentally whiney than I used to be. Yes, I hurt in places I didn’t know I had places, but I know I’ll get over it, and this is an opportunity to make the money we need, so the pain is worth it.

  • Just before I left work this morning I passed down some info on the task I was doing to the guy who was relieving me.
    It hit me that I sounded super competent. I’d only done that particular task once before, so old me would have sounded a little unsure of myself. This time I sounded like I knew exactly what was going on and was sure I’d done it right.
    This was something new, so I attribute it to Chosen. Makes sense because the first step to being seen as an inspirational leader is probably to be seen as competent.

  1. It gave me a very good understanding of why I had the success ceiling that I did, and how the self sabotage mechanisms that supported it worked. That way even if they start to return, I will understand what is going on. They can no longer undercut me with the cover of darkness.

  • I had the weirdest dream sequence last night. It started with hearing that a female friend of mine who I have occasionally hooked up with (she exists in real life) had been held hostage in some foreign country for a while but was coming home.
    For some reason I had to meet her at some kind of government building complex. I had a hell of a time getting in there, I had to sneak in somehow.
    Once I got in, I was working as a cop of some kind in the complex. The DA gave me a piece of evidence that I was supposed to present and testify about in court.
    The evidence had something to do with a tire tread mark, and it was a cake in the shape of a tire. (What the FUCK subconscious?!?)
    During the course of things, I messed up the cake, and managed to show up at court in workout clothes.
    When everyone saw the messed up evidence, the DA looked horrified and the defense attorney yelled “Unconstitutional”. I knew that I’d screwed up really bad and lost the case.
    I can hazard a guess as to meaning on this. It’s some insecurity coming through. I had a hard time breaking in and once I was in I was woefully unprepared and screwed it up. That sums up fears I still have about moving my career forward.
    Hopefully that means that that’s getting processed and dealt with ahead of my major push next year.

  • I was worried that we were going to have money problems because I didn’t work any overtime for two weeks, but a windfall showed up at just the right time to take care of it. Thanks RICH.

    1. I used to have kind of mental flashbacks to times when I was severely embarrassed. They were very unpleasant, and I fully felt the embarrassment. That entirely stopped sometime this year.

    1. I have entirely stopped ripping on myself to other people. Often in the guise of humor. Now, if I joke about myself, it’s mock arrogance and about how awesome I am.
      I say mock arrogance because it’s really just realism.

  • This is probably going to be my last entry in this journal unless further discussion ensues.
    I have been off of The Dragon for a new weeks now, and my new subliminal regimen is starting to dig in and do it’s thing. Last night I felt some kind of breakthrough, or maybe just realized what was already there.
    I really do feel like a new man. I look at myself and life in ways that I couldn’t have imagined twelve months ago when I started this journey. Better ways.
    I am Reborn. As a much better, happier man.

  • Folks, the one piece of advice I have is take your time with this one, it’s worth it. Take a full year to work through the stages. More if you need to get the full effect. The world looks brighter on the other side.

even on zp you’d do a full year?

2 Likes

Definitely. This is a deep transformative sub, and the transformation is going to take time no matter what.
More is not better as far as how many loops you run, but it definitely is better when we’re talking about how much time to spend on a program no matter what the build method.

as far as single stages go would you go with the recommended 45 days and start a new stack or would you still double that for 90 days per stage?

Personally, I’d go for the 90 days and give each one the most of time to do what it’s supposed to do thoroughly.

As I was quoting the DE ST1 modules list in my journal, I read a few of the first posts, and realized I followed this thread from the very start. I’m an O.G. CoWolfe fan/follower! haha. ossum

EDIT: I’m reading back over this to be sure, but didn’t you end up changing a few modules between subsequent stage builds as you got further into the year?

I have fans now? Chosen must be working!
In all seriousness, I’m shocked this one made it to over a thousand posts.
