Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[firsthelix]

Totally agree with what you say. In general, I have a high level of serenity and accepting what things happen as there must be a good reason for what they happen.

I'm not mad at my subconscious mind. It is probably my best buddy, looking out for my best interests all the time. I am just amazed how stubborn it can be and how powerful it is when it disagree with something that I want to do consciously...

This reminds me the blind date that I was supposed to have. I was looking for my date inside the restaurant while the girl was waiting me outside in the parking.

And precisely at that moment, my phone got bricked by a firmware update that has been pushed in my phone so I could not text her to ask her where she was.

I mean, I am amazed and stunned by these incredible coincidences that stops me from getting what I want. It may even be a little bit frustrating in the moment.

but I am totally accepting these things and I think that I am able to positively spin what happens to me. That is why I wrote:

Still, I can see some form of progress torward the program goals. Lets keep going... Almost there...

Your subconscious tries to do what it believes is the right thing. It may or may not be operating based on fear, imagined outcomes, etc. So it may or may not be actually helping. But it is incredibly powerful and you're seeing that when it disagrees with what the conscious mind wants

Fortunately I am working on what I hope to be the two final keys to over coming that disagreement and the resulting resistance.

I have seen enough in my day that I don't believe there is any such thing as "coincidence". Everything happens for a reason, whether or not we understand what that reason is.

Shannon,

Having said you are working on the resistance removal piece of the next Version of DMSI, can you give us an update on where you are at atm and by when we can realistically expect version 3.3?

Thanks!

[Hatman]

In response to any and all of your thoughts that touch on what to do with regards to DMSI, if you choose to keep using it, do this:

Ask:

"How will this thought, belief, point of view and/or response affect my use of and achieving the goals of DMSI?"

If it will affect them in a negative way, it is a sabotage attempt. THROW IT AWAY and replace it with a positive belief or thought that will result in achieving the goals of DMSI.

This could be applied to literally any goal you have in life. Amazing.

Where I am is significantly overloaded.

There are two "keys" to overcoming resistance as I now see it. One is dealt with, and passes modeling tests. It has already been implemented in B17 for testing.

The other is a very, very complex concept and while I believe I have known for some time how to do this, the key to making B16/17 achieve design spec is not just achieving the goal of the program, but doing so in a specific amount of time or less. That amount of time is vastly shorter than I currently believe I know how to make the second key take effect. It will be some months of development before I probably have that one ready for testing, and that will also have to go into B17.

I am expecting B17 at the end of July or the beginning of August of this year (2018).

DMSI 3.3 will likely be worked on before then, as I expect this custom to take about 2-3 more weeks and then I am going to do a few focusfire subs of 2-3 days each. Given the time frame for developing and testing these two final keys, it may or may not be possible to implement one or both in 3.3. I believe I can safely implement the first key, but the second key is complex and must be done absolutely right the first time. So 3.3 may have the first key, but not the second; or, I may have developed the second key and had a chance to test it in something else before B17 happens, and be ready and able to add it to 3.3.

I am going to try to have both in 3.3, but safety and correctness will always be my top priority.

Just as a disclaimer... I have a history of being 100% wrong when I attempt to guess, estimate and/or predict when a version of DMSI will come out, most other subs too. Take this with a grain of salt.

I dont know about you, but @Shannon your last post makes me exited, whenever it may be released is fine. I am starting to see minor results with 3.2.

[thor2014]

Its my 3rd day of doing 7 loops on dmsi version A. I had the feeling that i am not that good looking. I feel insecure my mind tells me AMS will cure this but will continue with dmsi on 7 loops.

AMS?

[Jake2015]

Its my 3rd day of doing 7 loops on dmsi version A. I had the feeling that i am not that good looking. I feel insecure my mind tells me AMS will cure this but will continue with dmsi on 7 loops.

Im back after a long time away, so been trying to read and catch up on all the news here. This got my attention however because I also had that same experience during my brief run of DMSI A.

I recall mentioning in my journal how I didnt feel attractive and knew I had to work on it which ive always known but have been unable to actually start on due to lack of time, ability on where to start etc.

So now im assured it was DMSI and ill try and get back on to it.

Since stopping DMSI ive had very little desire and urge to actually get back on to it. It could be major resistance and wonder if Shannon thinks it is but consciously I felt since all I thought I was getting was no fapping then why stay on it - thats what my mind has been saying to me.

I am also eager and hoping that 3.3 will allow me to execute alot more of the sub and allow me to consciously notice this since its now clear to me that a feedback of some sorts to help encourage my hope will keep me wanting to continue using DMSI which I think is a better form of attack for all forms of resistance - in other words, if we can see it is working, and working in the right direction then we will continue to persist.

what do you think @Shannon ?

and hope all here are well

[Jake2015]

So guys ive posted my journal to update what ive been upto and then wrote the following which seemed to be what I have evaluated whilst I was on DMSI.

I want to know what you all think and what @Shannon thinks too please.

Thanks

I have realised more - again is this due to DMSI I dont know - that I am a Beta Male, even though I do feel Alpha, because I make girls friends rather than lovers. I however do believe this HAS alot to do with my image and no matter what anyone says LOOKS do matter to women as much as they do to men.

A women needs to be attracted to a man in the same way a man needs to be attracted to a female. Its basic common sense. If you are a good looking man then you will get the girl. - if anyone wants to challenge this then please do. - I may post this on Shannon's journal to see what he and other say regarding this.

[Jake2015]

@Shannon

Hey hope you're good bro.

Just wondered if you feel with 3.3 and beyond, as the subs near perfection/6G whether their length will decrease or increase? Whether their ARSB will change in anyway too.

I ask since in the past subs were to be played for 8hours for 32days minimum, and now we have 1 loop (70mins approx) for lesser days with breaks, that if the subs will become easier and easier to manage in a heavy busy life that we all seem to have.

thanks in advance as always!

[Jake2015]

deleted post - not relevant now. thanks.

@Shannon

I have a practical ‘game plan’ now. Get to know women first, and try build a connection first (I guess this means, with them, going to cafes, beach, sharing hobbies, etc). And let them make the moves / escalate (It is my understanding that AYP manifestations will escalate, and that she will make the moves).


There are still a few things I’m confused about,

In my opinion, trying to lose your virginity to a FWB in this day and age is unwise

That means she will be less likely to hurt you than a FWB, in my experience.

Could you please expand on these points.

In what ways is my perfect FWB (primary manifestation of AYP FWB) likely to hurt me?

Why would losing my virginity to my perfect FWB be unwise?

If I were in your shoes, I would be doing AYPSL or AYPRL

I’m currently 130 days in using AYP FWB (as of today). I started AYP FWB in mid Jan 2018.

I chose ‘Perfect FWB’ (instead of other AYPs) because I thought that it would be the option with the least amount of drama / least amount of issues.

I value my independence greatly, and want to live separately from women, and focus my dating for weekends only. I’m naturally an introvert, and like to regularly have quiet time by myself, to meditate, to read, and relax.

Though, if losing my virginity to my ‘perfect FWB’ has hidden and dangerous consequences, then I may reconsider (and try another AYP), if those consequences are severe enough.


Thanks

[Leo1990]

Perhaps if you're a virgin, then getting fked by a fwb gives you the wrong mindset about women in general. I also think its unlikely that a virgin could hold the interest of a fwb (who is clearly more sexually experienced than you).

[thor2014]

I use to get a proper IDGAF on AMS all i am getting from dmsi is concerns and worries about my age and looks.

[Jake2015]

@Shannon or anyone here

So im going to be trying to listening to 2 loops rather than 1.

I wanted to ask how would I know if I should increase the loop again?

I mean not fapping was all I had before so any tips please?

thanks in advance.
