Thought about some more things over the last few days. I honestly wish I never stumbled onto the whole beliefs manifest your reality stuff. Why? Because I become obsessive with it and when it inevitably fails I tend to blame myself for not having the right beliefs. When the reality is, my issues may not be easy and it may actually take a while. And guilt and shame gets you nowhere when trying to improve yourself.
I wrote something down that I'm gonna put here.
I can tell myself over and over but if I don't believe it it isn't a belief. Once a belief changes I'll know. Worrying about others ruining my beliefs is stupid. Why? Because that means its not internalized.
Having the belief that I eliminated a belief when it is still there is just denial. And you can't fake it. It has to be real. When change comes it comes, I can't force it. I've noticed that one thing holds true for a lot of things. Forcing anything in life usually results in a non-satisfactory outcome.
Now this is my view, others can argue. But beliefs aren't these magical thoughts just floating around in your head. They are real, physical manifestations in your brain. Neural pathways and what not. It makes sense that the brain needs repetitive input(these subliminals) to overwrite other pathways. I'm not entirely sure if negative beliefs can be removed. Your perspective on them can change and you perceive that they are no longer there, but it's more like the train switched to a different track.
I bring this up because for a long long time I neglected the very real physical aspect of myself. It's appealing to think that we just need to change our perspective and let go of negative beliefs, that the only thing holding us back is fear or whatever. But life is complex. I've learned that everyone's problems are different and different solutions are needed. That's why I worry about cure all solutions, if it doesn't work suddenly it's the individuals fault, not the method.
That being said I'm going to finish up AM5.0. I will not be using AM 6.0. I don't have the mental strength to make it through. These subliminals are great, but I've realized it makes it very hard for me to function in my day to day life. I need to get my life together. Why not do both you may ask? I can't, my energy is split too much. Too much energy is diverted to the internal and it leaves me little energy to work on the external. If I came out the other side a new man, I'd continue. But my experience with these subliminals has shown that the change isn't significant enough to outweigh the cost of my life being a train wreck. Like I said, everyone is different and we can't all follow the same path.
