Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[Shannon]

About OF V3: I won't do a journal here, I didn't think there is anything to report before the 3 month mark and even if it is, it might be too "normalized" and I wouldn't see it. But on day 5 I already saw myself changing behavior and acting more quickly. I'm not sure if it is a one time only or something like that but I was positively surprised to see that. Thumbs up for that!
On the website it is a little strangely written in the beginning note with "If you have purchased a copy of Overcoming Fear Version 2, buying this version of the program before you have used Version 1 for at least 8 months straight" doesn't make sense. It talks about a bought version 2 and the usage of version 1 which isn't necessarily possible. I think you meant 2.

About UMS2: Is it going to be a 4-stage-set or a 3-stage-set? Since the 6-stagers also have a refresher stage (7) and are not called 7-stage-sets, what makes UMS2 a 4-stage-set? How will stage 4 be different to a stage 7 from AM/WM/SM?

Thanks for pointing that out.  I'll change it in a bit.

UMS v2 will be a 3+1 stage set.  Stage 4 will be "the whole script", but it may have one piece missing from Stages 1, 2 and 3 depending on what the models tell me.  That piece is the FRM.  It may be that we do better to leave it out of Stage 4, so that we can use stages 1-2-3 again and again until we don't need it, and then use Stage 4 without it.  If that is the case, Stage 4 will be everything but FRM.  If not, it will be everything in stages 1-2-3.

"6 stagers" are properly called 6+1 stage sets, because the last "stage" is really the goal of the first six.  It's the goal and the refresher, with the stages being steps to that goal.  Thus, it's technically not a stage.  And, we don't charge for the goal/refresher "stage" if you buy the whole set at once.

Stage 1 will primarily deal with clearing garbage beliefs and fear, and setting a basic foundation.  Stage 2 will continue removing fear and garbage beliefs and build on that foundation.  Stage 3 will only have fear removal, and not be trying to remove garbage thoughts.  It will build further on the Stage 2 foundation and give you "the rest of what you need".  As I said before, Stage 4 will be everything in Stages 1-2-3, with the possible exception of FRM.

Why first stage is always about garbage removal? For example what about people who already run AM twice,  or OF 6 month, or EPRHA 6 month, are the garbage removal process still necessary for staged 5.75.7G? Why not aim for the big guns right from the beginning, like manifestation beam that shot random luckiness and abundance there and there? In the end it's up to you, just curious. Thank you very much.

Who will have the better house?  The one who prepares and builds a foundation, then the walls, then the roof, then tiles the floors and adds shingles to the roof, or the one who builds the walls and roof and then tries to build a foundation under it, or worse, no foundation at all?

Garbage removal comes first because without it, the rest fails.  Everything must be done in the right order, which is dictated by what you are ready for.  "Big Guns" only cause big issues if you're not ready for them.  Just ask the guys who tried to skip AM6 Stages 1-6 and jump right into Stage 7.  Or the ones who just did AM6 Stage 3 right off the bat.

If it was possible to just jump right in with the big guns, it would have meant I only had to make Stage 7.  Why on earth would I spend the time and energy and frustration to build Stages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6?  I could have charged the same thing if the result was the same, and saved myself months and months of effort, which I could have turned around and spent building other titles.

There is always a good reason for what I do.

Garbage removal gets rid of faulty beliefs.  These beliefs are why you are where you are, and why you are using the program in the first place.  It is those beliefs that also result in the fears that hold you where you are, and which cause you to try to resist any changes.  Without garbage removal, the house is built on sand, and will fall.  Then everyone comes after me because the sub didn't work, and they blame me, and want their money back.  I'm not a charity.  I want to help people, but I also want to help myself pay the bills and pay for research and development and experiments and food and taxes.  That doesn't happen when there are too many refunds because the program didn't work.  So we have to make sure the program works, and the first step to that is... first, deal with what caused the issue you're trying to solve in the first place.

Garbage removal.

That clears the path to taking the next step, and the next, and the next.
