Day 26
- 86. Negative stress relief for achieving the goals of this program.
I am starting to wean off my nootropic stack. This is a HUGE step for me since I’ve used it and variations of it since 2012. Just to help me ease off I’ve allowing myself a half bottle of 5 hour energy (it’s not ideal, but whatever) each day if I need an extra kick.
After the first month I will also take an IQ test on a very stressful day. This was a big point one of my mentors gave me long ago; never measure yourself on your best days. Your most stressful days are what define you most, and how you deal and navigate through the hard times.
Test yourself on a challenging day to see how you operate under stress. It gives you a more realistic measure of how you perform when shit goes down, which is what matters. Now that I’m going through my own hurricane of BS, it’s pretty clear that they were spot on.
Some might disagree but from what I can see there’s merit to this. Unless you’re better under stress, you would add on roughly 3 – 5 points to get a “normal” reading for yourself if that matters to you.
It feels like MLS is training me to be far better under pressure, so this is like a trial by fire lol
Lots and lots of h/c bs in all direction, it feels.
