#3: You cannot divide your focus or attention without dividing your focus or attention.  We can't do this one without dividing attention and focus.  I suspect it would upset a lot of guys if I did this, especially before we have finished making it work for the majority.  This one is not feasible: those goals aren't what DMSI is about.

Fair, however we are communicating with the subconscious mind, does the concept of dividing attention still applies here? I thought the sub mind is unlimited and does not work in a similar way as the conscious mind.

My argument is that what is someone out there believes that to be sexually attractive is to be a drunk alcoholic badass, and therefor, they become one as a result, and they start attracting sexual partners as a result,. This would of course means they achieving the goals of the program, but at a cost that other side of their life is taking a hit (negative results of being alcoholic for example) 

Above is only illustration example.

Dividing the attention of the subconscious mind would seem to be a rather preposterous notion, wouldn't it?  After all, it is handing well over a million different functions all the time just to keep your body functional in a basic way while you sleep.

However, when you add in something as complex as a 5.11G subliminal, you start to significantly change the calculus, because dividing attention only matters when that attention is required to use resources and put in effort to accomplish the task - which a subliminal is causing it to do.  This is why turbulence happens: you are overloading parts of the subconscious. 

The attention isn't so much the problem as what you're tasking it to do with that attention.  You have finite energy and brain chemistry resources, as well as finite cellular capacity, capability and resources as well.  The subconscious in it's non-physical aspect does have a level that is connected to the infinite.  But the parts that we use to make subliminals work are limited by the wetware interface you call "the brain".

My argument is that what is (sic) someone out there believes that to be sexually attractive is to be a drunk alcoholic badass, and therefor, they become one as a result, and they start attracting sexual partners as a result,. This would of course means they achieving the goals of the program, but at a cost that other side of their life is taking a hit (negative results of being alcoholic for example) 

Above is only illustration example.

I don't follow what this has to do with dividing the attention and resources of the subconscious.
