Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[firsthelix]

Hi Shannon with 3.3 you have self confidence and self esteem all included which is one thing im hoping will start working soon obviously after 1 cycle it wasnt going to change much but you have mentioned that 4.1 is a lot faster working then the 3.2 versions do you think it will take a lot less time even for strong resistors to start seeing changes in confidence?

Since something like FRM has literally never been done before... I can't say yet. But I believe it will, yes.

I ask because having that extra confidence would of been really good this weekend, i had thoughts of approaching women but still held back, but dmsi the women are meant to show us interest first too when we start to execute.

Just curious by all your tests that you run for people that resist a lot will it still take 3 or more months to start seeing big changes and external results from women?

I don't believe there is just one "level of resistance". It's not "resistant or not". It's a spectrum. The more resistant someone is, the more fearful they will be (in some way, at some level), and the longer it will naturally take to remove their fears. I think FRM v3.x should take 3+ months. I think 4.x should take less time. I don't have enough actual evidence to know, and I haven't modeled it.

I see a lot are getting good results from looks and confidence boost and more already so thought to ask, i am using hybrid trickling stream volume is quite loud but comfortable with headphones each night while awake for the 5.5 hours no other music or videos playing during that time so i end up doing some reading. Only exception to this was for 2 days had to use ultrasonic on the cruise as the headphones kept falling off.

So you're going for the "more is better" approach, which is likely why you aren't seeing results. Too much is just as bad as too little, just for different reasons.

Calibrate the volume such that you can only faintly hear the lowest levels of ocean surf, and the highest points are comfortably loud. That is your maximum volume. Try that for a week and see what happens. If you don't start seeing more results, then take it down one notch each cycle until you do.

Thanks shannon, i will try changing the volume on vlc media player on the next cycle, tonight is the last night of trickling stream hybrid and will drop vlc media player volume to 75%. After the 2 day break will move onto ocean surf hybrid and will try between 50 and 75% and see if the lower volumes will work better for me.

Just seeing that 12 of 15 volume is recommended and others having volume up loud is why i had been doing it that way but will decrease volume for the cycles from now on and see how it goes.

Would 10% decrease be equal to one notch on a phone?

A volume of 12 is recommended for Jake. Not for everyone. There is a high correlation between a volume of 10-12-13-14-15 for Beast, but I haven't tested DMSI, etc. I am recommending 12/15 to Jake because it is known across several different programs (Beast, MIR, ARA, USLM, SE, DNWS, GPR) to be the sweet spot for execution from resistant personalities when you are using a cell phone.

You will have to use a volume meter to know what the equivalent volume is for VLC, and you have to take into account volume at the source (speaker) and distance from speaker to ear. Even that isn't perfect because some phones have speakers positioned at different distances from their microphones, which may translate into a different volume than 12.

Interesting! How does that translate for iPhone users with no volume indication?

Shannon,

Would you mind replying to this post. Thanks!
