Stage 1 Day 2
There has been some curious effects already only in about 4 hours of listening on day 2.
There is tension building up again, and I take it to mean it's because I'm not where i want to be either for business or life in general. So the tension i feel will be in proportion to how much i want to grow as compared to where i am. That pretty much means I'll be facing a crap ton of tension of the next month, if not this whole BASE run.
Another curious effect is more from E2 than BASE, but significant nonetheless. In some odd way E2 has shifted the way my mind works. I can't say it changed the way i think in the way that I'm used to (changing a belief, for example), but it sort of reshifted my brain in a way so that i think entirely different on certain topics.
I have a rubics cube that i play with when i have down time, or while I'm listening to people on skype. I've solved it hundreds of times; it's just hardwired into my brain and i can do portions of it without looking simply because it's algorithm based moves i have memorized.
I'm not sure exactly what point during E2 it was, but there was a moment where i blanked out and literally could not remember how to solve the damned thing. It was scary and a bit surreal. Here is this thing i've scrambled and solved so many times, and yet suddenly my memory banks are blank as to how to solve it.
This also happened in chess a few times. Friends would ask me if i was alright simply because I was making the most rookie mistakes possible. This wasn't just a passing thing that lasted for a day, I feel this for different things even today.
I'm not really sure what to make of it, but i think my brain has restructured in a way so that i can strategize differently / uniquely as compared to how i used to think before.
Now and onward should be the rebuilding phase where i learn how best i can use this mind shift to my advantage (praying to the Gods that this helps out my copywriting biz in some way).
I'm also getting another tool in the next few days which should help me stay calm and collected while clearing out emotional junk and other things that no longer serve me.
