Zone's Alpha Male 5 Journal

[Shannon]

Last day of stage 2. I've noticed that in the first two stages that there is a cycle for me. It starts out with a stage where I attempt to ignore the message which leaves me feel indifferent. Then it goes through a stage where I am resisting the message which leads to a depressive feeling like hopelessness. By the end of the stage it feels like there is a level of acceptance. The end of the stage seems to be the most joyful. It is funny because I'm always looking forward to start a new stage but the time I enjoy the process the most is at the end of the stage.

This is pretty much word for word what I experience when starting a stage and transitioning into the next one, weird stuff, I hope in the later stage 4,5,6, that this smooths out with less negativity/depression/anger in the middle and more confidence/alphaness instead, I guess this is what's meant to happen? Correct me Shannon if I'm wrong.

Each stage is to be used for 32 days because it takes time to get through the static and resistance. Then, once you have, the next stage forces more growth. It's not like this for everyone, most people don't see that so obviously. But how you respond to the later stages is up to you. Usually people have grown enough toward the end that they're much more comfortable with it.
