Okay, very long time no post. It's time for me to post.
First of all, my military draft is officially ended. Nothing crazy happened during the draft, which is exactly what I wanted.
Basically what I really wanted was to have little work at the draft (as most of it would have been related to physical work, and it would have slowed down or worsened the injury I sustain on my arms from the work at the draft.)
There were a few crazies I had to deal with at the community center I worked (for my military draft), but apart from them, things were mostly fine. I also want to add that I finished right before COVID got crazy here, so I can say that LTU's USLM module, especially luck part, worked well. It was exactly what I wanted and hoped the most out of.
For a year usage (well, the journal started on Feb 27 2019, I ended on Feb 28 2019, so exactly a year use), I would say most of the modules worked, but there were a few exceptions.
Improve love life --> Absolutely no change in my love life. So this module has not worked at all for me.
Ultramotivation/Overcoming Procrastination --> It worked well at the work. It didn't work as well at home. Especially lately, it didn't work as well as I hoped it would. However, keep in mind that I have ADD (as well as high functioning autism) that there could have been limit to what it could have achieved. I would say it didn't fail completely, but it had failures at times.
Anger management --> I don't get angry. At least usually. However, there were times when I got angry, and there was one time when I got angry for an entire day. All of these were basically coming from the work where I had been treated unfairly, or swore at. The time when I got angry the most was when a customer came to me to request a parking ticket. Since the person didn't bring the required documentation as in the guideline, I told the person to get the document. That guy got really angry and yelled, threw document at me and cursed and called names. What was even worse was that the guy was a neighbor living on the same building. (Although he would not have known.) If I recorded the situation, I could have sued him and he would have been charged by a prosecutor under felony, and that would have gone on the record. Oh the anger last for an entire day. I had thoughts about how I was going to make him suffer and be under so much misery. Still, my work has not changed, and I did not show any change of emotion at work. Although my concentration suffered very much at the time, I still got some work done (the studying).
Anger management issue is actually hard to say whether it worked or not. That is because I have never actually been treated this badly in my life. I have almost always been treated at least with some dignity. I have never been cursed at (especially not at the level at which the person could have been charged by a prosecutor, if I pressed the charge).
Also it could have been a conflict with self esteem. It's like I don't get to be treated this bad. Yet, there was nothing I could do to respond to this guy, at least at the time. (Nothing similar is going to happen now as I don't have that draft shackle, but if it were to happen again, I have so much more options to choose from) So it is hard to make a definite decision on anger management.
At the same time, it is hard to say it worked, because I am sure that even if similar thing had happened with the LTU, I would have been able to stay calm.
Overcome Victim mentality --> At times, I have a thought, I should have found a way to ditch the citizenship, or I should have found a way to avoid the draft as if I did, I would have already started a career, and I would not be in this situation where things are vague. I had this thought much more back then, but I still do now. However, the thought comes much less frequently, and I don't have negative emotions that comes from the thought. So, I think it works, maybe not perfectly, but works. Also, this module may work with other module such as happiness and joy and emotional healing and pain relief aid.
Anyway, I am forward looking and see what I can do. Since I just got out, I suppose I am taking a short break. Either way, I think there can be an inspiration coming from the class I am taking digital transformation in business. There is going to be a group project where we are going to come up with a project and pretend (or actually be) to be an entrepreneur and come up with a new business using the digital transformation we learned. I have a feeling this could be something I may actually use to start building something great, or move on to the next stage of my life.
I have had good experience with LTU, whether it worked or not, things have turned out fine and my second year of draft was easier than the first year.
I plan on moving onto a next program, either AM6 or UMS. Not sure which to pursue. What would be a better choice?
