Stage 1 – Day 3
Challenging the status-quo is how I would describe my feelings so far. I haven’t been happy with some areas of my life for a long time now, and I have this nagging need to do something about it. I’ve taken the day off work to address some of these. I feel fortunate to be able to do that.
Tiredness. I have read about it many times from those who have traveled this road ahead of me, and I’m getting my first taste of it. I feel rested, yet drained, even as I have added an extra hour to my normal sleep to compensate. I’ve been tracking about 12 hours of listening time per day, and I don’t think that is too much. I will let the mental battles rage on inside me, and push through the tiredness.
Dreams. Alligators? That’s a first for me. I had to rescue an old lady while she slept next to a swamp of gators. Good grief… where does my mind come up with this stuff?
Before I get too far into this, it occurred to me that it would be helpful to track my process in a more quantitative way; at least as much as possible. I’ve taken the list of areas that AM6 concentrates on, consolidated it some, and rated myself on a scale of 1-10. Additionally, I have added some personal goals to the list to see if I improve those areas as a result. I will update the numbers at the end of each stage as a way to track my process.
Pre-Stage 1
Note: contains personal goals as well as abbreviated AM6 goals.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
