Arctic Fox's EPRHA V2 Journal

[ArcticFox]

I guess you could say that it is somewhat theraputic for me. It's definitely one of the most enjoyable things I have ever encountered for me to do, even if some part of me is frustrated at how slow the process is.

I have what I jokingly refer to as "an 8 core processor upstairs" and I frequently have different cores working on different challenges. I always have at least 1 or 2 working on challenges related to subliminals. And it's really interesting to observe consciously what happens when I identify an issue that challenges me, and I assign it as a background process and generate X number of execution threads and assign them to Y number of processors for computation while I consciously work on something else. Even more interesting when I'm working away on something completely unrelated and the answer pops into my conscious mind. Aha! And then I implement it.

Kinda like my brain.

Not sure how you cope with all the work and testing you do with subs, to still find time and work on other projects! Thanks dude!

I'm looking forward to the results with Paradise, and fingers crossed it will be available for the summer. That combined with the awesome work and progress EPRHA is achieving will tee me up for one of the best summers of my life!

Big breakthrough for me on the weekend, I finally made it to a "meetup" group. I'm a member of a cycling meetup and they often post beginner rides which are 30 miles long and you can take any bike. this suits me as its not 100km road route that requires a slick road bike. i can take my MTB on the beginners ride.

As usual i was thinking of what excuses I could come up with not to go after i signed up, experiencing lots of anxiety and trying to predict the future and imagine who i will meet and what will happen on the ride. Even tho I had a valid reason not to ride as my shoulder/neck was put out, it felt ok while on the bike as long as I didn't twist around to much.

Morning comes and I'm deciding not to go (as usual), then I think "stop thinking" and just get yourself there to the meetup spot on time and "what will be will be". Long story short I make it there, get along with everyone, chat with everyone and generally have a blast!

This has now spurred me on to get a road bike so i can take part in the longer rides, I'm chatting to a few members on the group about a ride this weekend where will do a short route then go for a pub lunch and beers! A new bike and more opportunities to meet people is going to be awesome!!

Regarding progress with the sub, I've had a challenging week, my subconscious is stubborn as hell and really fighting the current progress, more anger than normal, lots of resistance but still the sub keeps churning away and doing its thing.

I've been much more easy gogin when it comes to calling and talking to friends and organising things, i rnomally hate doing that and get huge anxiety before calling friends - worried about what im gogin to say or how im have to be funny. Those thoughts and feelings are being broken down and replaced with a relaxed confidence and ease for communicating and contacting.

I still have to be careful as I almost lost it last night and burnt bridges with a friend, i tip toed out of that one. I think these incidents are more induced by external factors - alcohol, diet, etc rather than the sub creating resistance.
