@Shannon - Gentle approaching is making all the difference in the world, yup. I am going to stick to it for the upcoming subs as well.
This post is the end of the OF V1 journey for me. And it is by no means a testimonial, rather simply a snapshot of where I am. I am going to get OF V2 in the next few days and give it a run. It's been a couple of cycles since I've switched to masked and it has been absolutely incredible. There's no price you can put on being zen. Safe, and secure in your own skin. Happy, and living in the moment. And this state of being has dominated all my run except the patch where I hit resistance and felt hopeless. But that is sorted out. I'd be happy to run it for the rest of my life and not look for more, but leveling up is the name of the game.
It is sort of a "neutral" state. I am progressive towards healthy self-esteem, solid self-confidence, but there are no fireworks attached to it. I believe if I run any of the subs focused on that, I'd have insane results, But I don't need to. And I am patient enough to take all my time with OF journey continuing with the next version. Can you imagine how amazing it would be to run DMSI, for instance, not because you need the results, but for the playfulness of it? I'd like to get there. There have been some insecurities popping out now and then, but I've been able to handle them logically. Sooner or later, I look forward to getting rid of them completely.
On the social front, I don't get depleted anymore being social. I, no longer, feel that I fit the stereotype of being an introvert anymore. Sure, I need my time alone, but I can be around people all the time and not feel like I need to sneak away and recharge myself. I am on my way to starting my own business, which has been tricky waters to navigate in these times. But I do have trust in myself and believe I can take calculated risks and succeed. It's been years, I can't let the fear of failure hold me back.
What else, yes, I am going to take a week or two off and start OF V2 and run it the entirety of this year. No rush . The future is exciting with 6G around, and all the multiple stages that will come with it. I don't mind taking as much time as OF needs.
