What about AM5 do I need to fix in AM6?

[SargeMaximus]

No problem, and thanks for the revelation, I can sleep now.

Build environment is back up and I've been working on pass 1 of the script adjustment for a few hours now. This program is going to require at least 7 passes of adjustment and optimization before I can begin building it.

But, that's good news, because I have found some really great ways to improve it. However these seven passes will extend the build time, but they will vastly improve the quality and effectiveness of the final product. So since I like producing the best possible quality, y'all can just wait while I make this thing kick ass.

I have had a few times now, even during Pass 1, where my eyes opened in surprise at just how big and powerful an impact an optimization made. I can see this is shaping up to be a home run.

Shannon I haven't completed AM 5 yet, but I just wanted to let you know I'm glad you are going with a minimalist approach for AM 6. I just felt like AM 5.0 got too bloated and it tried to do too much of everything. I think narrowing down the focus will result in some good results.

[SargeMaximus]

Shannon, I've been thinking more about success and beliefs today. Does AM 6 have anything that will change people so they expect success and good things to happen without caring about it WHEN it does?

To me, it's not just about caring if you'll fail, but also the sudden clingy-ness and desperation that is revealed when a person starts seeing success. Much like someone who is starving and has accepted it, they may seem calm, but the instant food is put in front of their face, they will change into a desperate and ravenous animal.

I take this from my journal because I don't know how often you read those, but it's basically how I see it:

You [should] expect good things to happen, because they always happen, and you've become acclimated to success in such a way that it doesn't even phase you. GOOD things happening is the default, whereas in the model I currently follow, BAD things happening is the default which is (I believe) why it's so hard to start having success. The instant success starts to materialize, I cling to it and push it away.

This is true for everything in life I believe: money, women, success, confidence, you name it. I wonder if we shouldn't put this in AM 6 as well, or if it's already part of it/the effect will be the same.

That is a response based in insecurity and fear. OGSF and other additions will deal with that. You seem to be trying to deal with fears and insecurity and lack by choosing not to want anything, not care, etc. which is a good way to be tranquil and still. But stillness does not move us forward in life. One must have inner tranquility based on genuine self mastery, which allows the self to at once be tranquil and still seek for betterment in ways that will drive us in life, both externally as well as internally.

The goal of AM6 is to be the tool that strips you down, and builds you into what you have the potential to be, while leaving you with the choice of how you express it (in terms of the things you do with your transformations). If you wish to be tranquil and seek stillness but not seek great success and/or wealth externally, AM6 allows for that in as far as it will seek to make you more successful and destroy procrastination, but not force you to seek outside yourself for happiness.

We want to take you down and rebuild you into what you have the potential to be within yourself and externally. Takedown is minimized if it is unnecessary, but you could use the analogy that an old beat up junked original VW Bug could be retrieved from the junk yard, stripped down to parts, new parts brought in, old parts rebuilt, and then the whole reassembled, tuned and optimized to create the most badass collectible drag racing VW Bug ever. It may still be a bug, but now it's got a much more powerful engine, much higher torque, better tires, better balance, more efficiency, and a much better look too.

And if you don't need "takedown" we'll just upgrade and improve the existing parts "in place" to achieve the same goal.

Instead of giving up desire, because you can't figure out how to accomplish something, you can figure out how to accomplish it and then assess whether you want to give up desire for the reasons it is actually supposed to be surrendered.

I actually don't even know what you mean. I was simply talking about having an attachment to the outcome.

I find I'm attached to the "good" outcomes, while the "bad" outcomes I don't care about. They are my default position. I do want "good" outcomes to be my default position, but I find that because I cling to "good" things as soon as they arise, I push them away.

I think that should be addressed.

[Shannon]

ok.

I love this idea!!!

Shannon,

I think if you manage to mix the naturalizer with the ability to see the new changes clearly AM6 will be producing, people won't be complaining that they haven't seen any changes.

I think we should be more concerned with results than with people's complaints. I myself complained of depression, but it was that very depression that was helpful to my growth. Sometimes it's the nature of the beast.

I'm the one mention End Game - LoGun.
And I say, you've BITCH SLAPPED. Damn!!
I forgot Successful people tend to simplify the process.

Mate, really, THANKS. I truly forgot meditations, affirmation, subliminals and every method out there ARE NOT MAGIC PILL.

We still need to move our own ass, TAKE ACTION.


Bitch slapped rite to my face brother. Thanks, I love mind fucked realizations.

AM6 = Simplistic

I hope I'm not too late for a few suggestions since I've used subs since the summer of '11. I hope I add some value, and I don't come across as to hostile. I'm just annoyed with the wishful thinking.

I was reading the AM6 suggestions, and honestly its pathetic. Alphas are simple, if you think they're complicated your misinformed. Everyone is assuming what an alpha is, these guys don't know. It seems guys want a magic pill to solve all their problems with little effort on their part.

I believe guys should be spending the 6 months 100% focused on their life, not pussy. Then if that doesn't bring more girls into their life (it did for me BIG time). Then they should do WM, or SM after. That's just my opinion.

Subliminals are fantastic when you use them towards a GOAL. They are not magical pixie dust you sprinkle on yourself, as some of you so believe. I think this is also why a lot of guys don't have the results they expect. Because they think the subs are going to do the action taking for them.

Bad Ideas

• Limitless is a MOVIE, its not going to happen. He took a pill, it was addicting, people died, he got lucky eventually worked the bugs out. MOVIE!
  
• Indifference. I think too many guys jump on the Brent Smith/Cory Skyy train. I want to desire something, and go after it relentlessly with 100% focus. When I did AM11, I felt indifferent towards everything. It was awful.
  
  When I did AM5, I started to hate certain aspects of my life, and changed it for the better.
  

My Ideas

• HUGE HUGE focus on Goals & Taking Action. Guys want "to build an incredible world, wake up with passion, energy, girl beside them, morning wood for life, ect.
  
  How do you think that "incredible world" gets built? By listening to a subliminal? No, by taking action. Subliminals supplement action.
  
• Major focus on exercising, and take care of one's hygiene. I would think this is easily done without a sub. But its clear many need the boost. I know its in AM5, but I know its not actually working for some individuals. I think if guys put a major focus on this it would solve a lot of their "female problems".
  
• Excellence. This isn't to be confused for perfectionism. But excellence, as in to always do your best in EVERYTHING. Even during mundane tasks such as doing the dishes, cleaning, ect. Striving to be your best self, not perfect, or just doing the minimal thing to get by. Doing everything to the best of your ability.
  
• Motivational Boost/Procrastination Destruction. This comes back to taking action, which helps guys create the life they want.
  
• Confidence. Incorporate ASC 5G into the script, I haven't used it, but I've read lots of good testimonials.
  
• Laser like Focus on the aspects you hate about your life, and take massive action to change.
  

Everything I've listed above ties into self-love, acceptance, all the self-esteem stuff guys want. Guys seem to be repeating suggestions that are already in AM5. But the problem is that its hard to love yourself when your life is still the same one you're frustrated with.

Could be finances, females, living at home, ect. If you're constantly faced with the same problems you're not going to love yourself until you take action to make the necessary changes.

Needs Fixing

• Approaching. It was easier, but always a struggle. Never became effortlessly.
  
• Seeking Approval. I would never seek it, but there's that nagging voice that you want certain people to approve of different things. Mainly appearance.
  

Someone mentioned something from End Game by Logun. I assume you know how he got there, since you read the book? Meditation, honesty, setting goals, and taking action. I've been through all 3 programs.

One thing that highly annoys me is people who go out just to hook up...it's too much desperation...And if you watch when the majority of guys are like this in a club, they are either making the woman nervous...or she is drunk enough to do whatever you want her to do. When I used to go to clubs, one of the most annoying things was at the end, you see all the desperate guys about to leave try to pick-up any woman that is completely trashed or...not very attractive. I'm no longer friends with many guys because they acted this way, though I also don't go to clubs anymore.

Your PERSONAL beliefs have nothing to do with what an alpha is. I believe you created an online dating profile before? and you don't think thats too much desperation... At least these "desperate" guys are approaching. I go to clubs/events quite often for good DJs, if I saw a girl that was attractive I'd try to dance with her, and escalate. Its quite normal... Getting hammered, and approaching girls isn't, it obviously means guys are scared.

Appreciate the suggestions. I did find a few things useful in this post, and I still have time to add them.

I like the adding of ASC and motivation.
