Yes, I did finish it. No, I didn't leave a testimonial. My results were very subtle and looking back there aren't really any that stand out. I was using it as a pre-smoking sub to possibly deal with issue’s I didn’t know I had, if that makes any sense. I was also using it along with my daughter because it was the first sub she was using and I wanted her to feel ok about using it. I do remember her saying from time to time how much better she felt but here’s the thing.
She’s pretty strong headed to begin with, especially if she thinks she’s right, and she always thinks she’s right! lol She had gotten a new job I think right around the time she started listening to the sub. It was a really great job for her and she felt that the sub made her feel more confident in the interview, with her saying things in a way that she normally wouldn’t. She’s not stupid by any means, but she tends to babble (for the sake of a better word) a lot, going off into a variety of many things at one time. The sub seemed to help her slow down and focus.
When she started the job she was told she’d have a specific day off every week, that she really liked because it fit very well into her schedule. But then they changed it to one she really didn’t like and it didn’t settle well with her that they could just do that. So she went to her supervisor to complain and she told her there was nothing she could do about it, even though she’s the one that changed it. This now really didn’t settle well with her! She’d vented about it to me, but I thought it was basically a dead issue, nothing really to be done. Apparently, I was wrong. Because she went over her supervisors head to the CEO to also vent and complain. She just didn’t like the way it was done. She felt walked on I guess and was not having it. It was a really stupid move on her part and if she had mentioned to me she was going to do it, I would have of course tried to stop her. You should never break the chain of command, especially for something so trivial. I think the sub may have made her feel a little over-confident perhaps, and she just didn’t know the way of the job world. I tried to explain that maybe the sub had made her a little over-zealous, even though I certainly understand she felt like she needed to stand up for herself and be heard.
When she had her three month review, she thought she was getting a raise because she was constantly told how well she was doing. Instead she got fired, them saying they were having a hiring freeze. She was fired by the supervisor who’s head she went over so I knew exactly what had happened.
Moral of the story, if you’re using these programs and if you’re acting in way that’s directly opposite of how you normally would act, do things or speak, check yourself and make sure your actions are in your best interest. Bucking authority is something she would have never done. Please don’t misunderstand, I in no way blame these subs for her getting fired, I blame her actions. Always make sure you know all the possible outcomes of your actions before you act.
She continued and finished the sub and did get another job, and now realizes even though she was right, that going about in that way probably wasn’t the best way to do it. Lesson learned.
Her subconscious is very different from mine, and she has many more issues that that sub could address. Maybe that’s why we could pinpoint the changes more. For me, I would say that the LifeTuneUp needs to be amped up some. I’m sure it’s due for an upgrade.
If you're searching for that one person that will change your life, take a look in the mirror!
