Your experience actually sounds much better than I would've hoped for (social rockstar and positivity). Was wondering how the charisma programming is like. I think I'd also like any improvements in sleep quality. AM confidence, for me, is also calm, but on SM and now 2.3 its more sexual (edgy, aggressive or challenging). That wouldn't really fit BASE, though. But it is very energizing.
Will think about it for a night or two. I was thinking of replicating your extended S1 experience, since its something I already considered with SM before. Though then I'd have to wait for that charisma. But let's not get ahead of yourselves.
Better sleep quality is one of the few things I haven't noticed too much (yet).
You haven't run BASE before, or am I mistaken? If this would be your first run, why not get a feel for it in its entirety before narrowing the focus?
Ah, you're actually doing something different than what I thought. I wouldn't be doing S1 for as long as you, but I WAS thinking of doing it for maybe 2 months. I remember Kol reporting his ASC results getting more profound during the 2nd month, after day 40 or so, and I seem to remember you've been reporting the same thing wrt. productivity and such basics.
It is my 1st run of BASE, but from what I remember of 2xAM6 and 1xSM3, I think I shouldn't continue from the 1st stage before I feel I have some sort of a handle of the basics. There's always new resistance when starting new stage, and I think if that resistance is introduced before reaching the tipping point (e.g. day 40), then even if the same programming continues in the new stage, the tipping point for that programming gets delayed and the user expressing the desired behaviors gets delayed, and so for the whole 6-stage set you're continually almost getting it, but then changing things up and not really getting it.
I'm not going to do anything drastic, but maybe an extended S1 if I'm not feeling the effects, maybe 40 days per stage, or maybe the normal 32 if it seems progressing well. I'll be reading the journals for some hints, too. Seems like the later stages are more fun, just like AM, and the 1st half is more about grinding it out (more angry on AM).
