I'm referring to PRA. She will start using the masked format so hopefully that will make the difference.
Thank you!
You need to give me the full details of what is going on.
PRA when it is used properly can and often does trigger resistance, and the proper way to handle it in most cases is to just keep going. The parts that need to change are not always going to change without a fight, but they can and will change. Trying to reduce or avoid resistance isn't always the solution.
Give me the full picture, so I can give you accurate advice, please.

Hi Shannon,
The person doesn't want to explain the full picture in the forum and I told her to send an email to Ben, hope it's okay.
Thank you,
That's fine.

Resistance to PRA v1 is normal and expected for most people who have more serious traumas. What you should see is the "tidal effect", where you make progress, you hit resistance that slows you down or pulls you back some, you make progress beyond the last peak, you hit resistance that slows you down or pulls you back some, etc. and the net result is slow progress overall.
The more serious your traumas, the more likely you will be to face that pattern. Just keep going.

I have asked Ben to double check and verify that I didn't miss something, and if I haven't, then we'll be working with PayPal to sort this out.
In the meantime, please bear with us. Your patience is greatly appreciated.

When is this checkout issue going to sort itself out?
I'm ready and willing to put through my 75 dollars. Guess it's just a matter of time at this rate.
Reminds me of the Futurama quote: "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!"

Trying to get it sorted out. So far it's "shopify - we seen something was changed on paypals end" "paypal - there's no restriction on the account, try something on shopify".
The option they gave is something Shannon will have to do, i've messaged him. I hope this fixes it.
It's just as frustrating on our end for random weirdness like this to be happening.

So far it's PayPal starting it off with requiring us to jump through hoops - which we have done... and then telling us that Shopify will handle the next steps. When we go to Shopify, they tell us, "No, that's PayPal's issue." Now PayPal is telling us that our only option is toturn off PayPal and then re-start it. I am a little hesitant to do that, given how screwed up things have been lately because it may not come back.
In the not too distant future, we will be trying that option, however. So if this does not go as planned... that is why.
Believe me, I wouild love to take your money.

With my limited web development knowledge, the browser console states that the checkout session's private access token is "missing, invalid, or expired" (code 401).
I'm sure you already know this, but figured I would relay this information.

Hello Shannon and Ben,
just now I was still not able to buy a subscription.
But buying the title outright worked at least. Honestly I would have preferred to subscribe instead.
Any updates when subscriptions will be active again?
Thanks

If the lack of motivation lasts more than a month straight, it is often helpful to take a break from the program and use something else for a while.
Hi Shannon, It's been almost a month since I used MLS 6G. This coming Thursday will be my last day for for having run a full month of MLS. Do you think it would be beneficial to run Stage 0 of AM7 for 3 months and run stage 1-7 of AM7 before going back to MLS 6G? Right now, I'm lacking motivation to study and it's been that way for about a month. I'm tired a lot too. Studying just seems like a waste of time for me. I know it 's important to do it to get better at my job though.
I'm itching to run Stage 0 of AM7 as well.

It looks like I have one choice and only one choice, and that is... pull the plug on Pay Pal and then try to re-activate it. That has me nervous, because last time, it took several days to come back up, and so far because of what we sell, we are in a very strange position regarding payment processors. So I'm probably going to do that a little later today, and we'll see how this goes.

That response to MLS 6G indicates there are things you need to resolve in your deep subconscious regarding fears. Stage 0 ofAM7 will certainly be helpful, as will running AM7. So would running PRA. Your choice. I think in your situation I would probably do a run-through of AM7. But there is no 3 months use of Stage 0. It's 1 month at a time, or 4 months. I suggest 4 months, since it may take me 2 months to get Stage 1 out.
