"There is no use for a tool that already does what you can by yourself."
That's the whole point. The purpose of a tool is to make life easier. Using a sub to change one's own beliefs is much faster than the older way of affirmations or a daily hypnosis protocol.
What I'm getting at is a difference in paradigm. I'm by no way saying those people who use it as a "crutch" aren't getting any benefits at all. I'm saying they're getting it at a snail pace compared to those who use it as a tool and here's why;
For the sub to truly work, the user needs to accumulate reference experiences of their new behaviours. If a person were to continually tell them self that they are an "alpha male", without any external evidence/ experiences to base this belief upon, the subconscious mind would disregard this statement. However, if the statement goes "you are starting to behave in more alpha ways" followed by "you are becoming an alpha male" (as Shannon uses in his scripts) the user is encouraged to obtain these reference experiences by behaving in these new ways.
People who view it as a tool take responsibility for themselves. They accept their current beliefs and understand they're in a process of transforming them. These people are much more likely to go out and expose themselves to the kinds of situations that allow for these reference experiences to accumulate and hence transform much faster than a crutch user whose likely to do F*** all beyond what they normally do.
I should add in here, a belief by definition is a statement about the self which has had emotion sunk into it.
By the same token, crutch users turn around and blame Shannon when his product isn't working when in reality the user hasn't exposed them self to enough reinforcing experiences to hard code "ok this is my new way of being now"
As for resistance, hypnosis is a 3 step process. 1. Get the person's attention, 2. Bypass the critical factor.
It's at step 2 where the first form of resistance occurs. I've seen some people on here who seem to perpetually be in critical factor mode, looking at all new information as either "agree or disagree". If you're agreeing with it than its nothing new for you, if you're disagreeing with it, you're discarding it. A person operating from this point won't be allowing any new information in and hence won't make very many new changes.
The second form of resistance relates to reference experiences. If a person has gone through life accumulating a whole heap of dis empowering reference experiences (or framing them to be like that) then these are going to conflict with the programming of new beliefs. Without acquiring new empowering experiences, the user will remain stuck. Which is why the tool approach is much faster than the crutch.
You should understand now why the guys who've had success/ prior experience with women in the past, do really well really quickly on DMSI, because their subconscious has plenty to draw upon. In effect their SubC mind is saying "yes, you are irresistibly attractive to women and here are numerous reasons why".
