Light's Lifestyle Journal

[Light]

Me: It's fine. I think I can make 6 figures side money off the Stock Market. 

Mom: Haha. If it were that easy, everyone would be doing it. 

Brother: Lol, look at this jokester. 

 

 

See now, I actually have my competitive spirit very much alive. You throw an open challenge and laugh at me like this, I will do everything in my power to prove you wrong.

 

So here goes. I now plan on making at the very least in the millions out of the Stock Market. That's at least 10x times more than I spoke of, and it should shut them up permanently. 

 

Now making money isn't just about making money for me. I would like to purchase some land and start my own Business, but I will need to save up a fair amount for my entrepreneurial ventures - both for and nonprofit. That, and I have always had the dream of launching my Author Brand and being a  worldwide bestseller.

 

I might scavenge for and find additional sources of income as I go along. So, here goes my to do list.

 

- Train Psychic Senses to Predict Stock Market with BULLSEYE accuracy and precision.

- Sign up for Stock Market Education. I will scavenge out the legitimate guys from the frauds here. 

- Look into future possible Entrepreneurial Ventures even as I dive into the Stock Market.

- Social Media Presence. I will have to establish my Brand Name bit by bit, so looking forward to this. Might need a very specific strategy. For now, I'll sign up to the major social media sites. The more people that know you, the wealthier you are.

- Start Writing. If I can write 1000 words a day, I will have a novel in 2-3 months. If i can make that 2000... I will have it done very fast. 

- I am using Novel Writing also as a way to train intelligence as well, so my hobby now has an added benefit. George Hutton's IA program had an easy way to train your intelligence. Pick an image, and describe it with as much detail as possible. The better you get, the more your intelligence grows. 

 

 

 

Now I am a fan of the Horror/Psycho Thriller genre, so I suppose my insights will be interesting as I write along. Ha. 1 image per chapter, most likely. Max 2.

 

Feel free to post any questions/comments etc. Until next time - Light. 

[Light]

Investing and IA

 

- Alright, so far I have signed up for 3 different stock education types. How legitimate are they, I'll figure it out later. 150 dollars invested into this so far. 

- I have somewhat of a plot for the book, and am gathering up imagery. This is fun as it means browsing a whole lot of great pictures, but I have my keyboard ready for the right ones. 

- I have also started to look into Real Estate/Land as a source of investment. Not too deep into it, but will take a look. 

 

Entrepreneurial Thoughts

 

- It bothers me that there is no outdoor fitness place. WHY NOT? Listen, at the end of the day, the toughest men in our nation are the Marines, or the NAVY Seals. How often are these men in air conditioned lifting rooms? Not very often. This is a thought down the line - to build a fitness Mecca outdoors. Crossfit is the only one who has legitimately pulled this through, but they cost 120 bucks a month, and it's surprising they have as many subscribers as they do. 

- Who supplies these fitness centers with whole healthy food? I am certain "raw organic farms" would rake in some serious $$$. 

 

Bullseye/Psychic Sense Training

 

- The problem with Psychics is there is no system that gets you genuine results. For a Psychic to be great, the Psychic has to be BULLSEYE. For the Psychic to be bullseye, the Psychic has to be precise and accurate. So I am working on devicing one that consistently gets me results. To be a great investor, you have, to some degree, have that "knowing". This "knowing", and getting it down to a very precise and accurate art is what makes a great Investor. 

 

 

Accuracy + Precision = BULLSEYE. 

 

 

I am turning myself into a superhero (or Anti-Hero, or SuperVillain), if you will. Catch y'all later - Light. 

[Light]

- Lost 100 bucks. Haha. This was, though, not from a stock investment. It was from educational material. Beware the guys out there that sell educational material and financial advise in general. There are tons of frauds out there. 

 

- Also spent another 150 bucks on educational material that did not appeal to me. I suppose I need to look harder for my own niche, as conventional forms of trading won't appeal to me. At least this guy isn't a fraud. Gotta slow down and not jump into things.  

 

But Light, Did ya not look at the reviews?

 

Oh, I did. I checked out 5 different sites and he had GREAT REVIEWS! So what's going on? Affiliate Marketing. Through this scheme, people will rave on and on about your products and publish new sites, create new articles, etc. to sell a product that they have never tested. In short, the Con Artist has bought all the reviews and you cannot rely on anyone but yourself to be judge. If you want real reviews, you will have to dig deep. 

 

So buyer beware. Even the ones that present themselves as celebrities have tons of loopholes. TONS. Finding good advice for investing - be it bonds, stocks, real estate, etc. does not come by easy. 

 

It's good that I haven't lost much more. Lessons learned. 

[jerrymp]

I dig your writing style, bro. You would be a great blogger

[Light]

I dig your writing style, bro. You would be a great blogger

 

 

Thanks. I needed that. 

 

 

I am having an AHHHHH moment. Not the AHHHHH where you get something, but the AHHHH where holy shit, WHERE IS THIS GOING? 

 

I will tell you something, though:

 

Life is at its best this way, you're on the wildest ride of your life - think like from an adventurer's perspective - Scooby Doo, Indiana Jones, I don't care... and if you don't make it, it's over. You're finished. 

 

When you face, react to, and get stronger in these types of situations, you can't be beat. You're like an elite, trained, survivor. Life's just like a wild jungle when you take the route of uncertainty. If you make it, you become the King, and your ROAR. You know that Alpha, Omega, whatever it is that guys try their hardest to be - take the route of uncertainty, and that feeling, that sensation, that part of you will rise to the occasion. 

 

 

 

Here's hopin' y'all become Kings someday - Light. 

[Light]

- Made about 700 bucks through trading so far. It's been a couple weeks and obviously I can't live off of this money, but it's a start. And it's chaos. My first 700. It's worth celebrating. 

- Have my novel's plot down. Def. going on a writing marathon very soon. 

 

 

 

This is how I feel right now. Like I am steering a ship through the storm with absolute faith in my own ability and nothing more. 

 

It was not too long ago where I read an interesting fact about the Solar Plexus, where your gut is located. 

 

 

This part of your body has 3 times more neurons than your brain itself!

 

Imagine that for a second. This whole time we've been emphasizing maximizing our brains... and yet the part of the body that's the smartest? It's where our gut it. Our self-worth. Self-esteem. Confidence. Willpower. This is worth 3 times more than our brain itself!

 

Next time you doubt your intelligence, know that so long as you have the guts to get through the storm, the journey, you got what it takes. Ships are safe in their harbor, but that's now what they're built for now... are they?

 

Have a nice day - Light.

Quick Update: Standing at 2600 dollars up till now from Stock Gains. It's a decent enough start on the journey. 

 

Lessons learned:

 

- Generally my Psychic/6th Sense alone isn't enough. This is to be combined with key information.

- The good news is knowledge can be gained on the fly, as you go. Everyday you learn something new. Keep updating your knowledge. 

- The most difficult part is to combine them all into one decision making method that works every time. Analysis and Psychic ability are like the Yin and Yang. Perfectly harmonize them and you have some serious wealth coming your way. . 

 

 

Audio: 3rd Eye. 

 

 

Careful, kids. Light's watching you with that All-Seeing Eye.

[Light]

Profits: 7000

Loss: 7000

 

Audio: Third Eye

 

Results: ZERO. 

 

 

Whoops. I SCREWED UP. 

 

 

I was up 7k for the year, looking good until BOOM, 3 bad investments in a row wiped me out for the year. That's a good 7 weeks of focus gone to waste, all because I got overconfident after my upward spiral. 

 

The ups and downs happen on the journey, so I am glad it came before my positive spiral went too far. Posted this about a week late as I had to overcome the disappointment.

 

Fair bit of Advice to everyone, even if it seems like common sense now: Save up. The moment you make money, put some aside for savings. You could screw up - because any worthwhile journey is like that. When life hits you hard... you gotta have some kinda backup, or you might just end up with NOTHING like me. It takes a lot to make money, but not very long to blow it up. 

 

Anyway, obviously I am not giving up. This has just made me a heck of a lot more determined to bounce back, and bounce back good. 

 

My biggest challenge right now is balance: Balancing all the psychic ability of the Third Eye with Analysis to make the perfect decisions every damned time.The 6th sense by definition is like a Quantum Leap, a knowing - - the question is how accurate is it? The Analysis, while more accurate, doesn't produce similar results. Therefore, a balance is necessary. 

[Light]

Climbing back, slowly but surely. Snail Pace. 

 

 

Currently using a form of Dream Precognition, to retrieve market info from my dream state. In addition to this, keeping on training my psychic ability. It's quite a bit better, but this time the approach is slow and methodical. 

 

I am afraid to screw up, but that's likely a good thing as I dive back into it. 

 

Writing

 

Finally started my novel. This promises to be fun, as I use Imagery to my advantage. 

 

 

Just another day in the journey. I know I have grown quite a bit Psychically, but it's difficult to straight up measure progress like this. I might've get a part time job to keep me afloat until I get my investments down to a precise art. 

 

There's a ton of escapist energy I am fighting through. It's very easy to just get into my car and have a long drive, right about now. It's a fleeting impulse that I imagine I will get through once this weekend is gone and I am fully back into the game. 

[Light]

Profits: $ 2300

 

Holy shit, life has been hell so far. It's been 3 months, and with the growth pace being so slow, it's been even more hellish. 

 

Patience is easy when there's something come in. Right now you're up 2300 dollars in about 3 months, and you find yourself in this situation. 

 

Every night is a beatdown.

 

 

I'm not sleeping much, every other day. I sort of am losing track of time. I can only have faith and stick through with the process. 

 

One thing I'll say to those that feel it's going real slow, esp. on the financial end: Don't beat yourself up, it won't help. Just know it'll take time. Every video out there tempts us by showing the end result, but fact is, there's a lot of work, and patience involved. Especially Patience. Imagine an advertisement, where, instead of showing the player making the shot... you simply show the player in the practice arena, missing a thousand shots, because that's what it takes to get there?

 

 

Pushing through that phase. The phase where clank after clank happens.

 

 

Alright, that's about it for now - I know something big will happen, even from an ability perspective. I can sense it, but it's yet to be materialized. 

 

Rock it out - Light. 

 

 

[Light]

Profits: ???? Lost count, seriously. Not because I am making a lot, only because I am all over the place.

 

Audio/Meditation: Combining a lot of stuff. What's different now is that I am not passive. I am not sitting there, but instead actively focusing in the whole time. I can tell this is different. 

 

I also have to add the benefit of straight up no technology meditation. No computer aids, nothing. Just sit there, and breathe. This builds a discipline of its own.

 

What I've been up doing:

 

Stocks - I've adopted a long term strategy so that I don't have to put in work daily. 

Real Estate - Joined a Club of Investors

Writing - Book or Blog? Perhaps both. 

Researching E-Businesses/Contemplating taking Jerry's help for one.

Thinking if a Youtube Channel is worth my time invested.

Applying to one part time job. The guaranteed income will feed me while I figure stuff out. 

Kuber Meditation - This is very specific, as he's the God Of Wealth in the Yogic tradition (and has the most popular Youtube wealth audio

). Peope have used this successfully for short term benefits, but I would like to find out if I can reap long term benefits of immense wealth by daily focused work. 

 

---

 

I think the shocker to me was not too long ago when I watched a millionaire's interview and learned he had 7 different sources of income.

 

7. 

 

 

Hence my decision to diversify my wealth. I love how incredibly humbling and adventurous this journey is so far. At this point, I am waking up just with a pure curiosity as to where is my life going? I felt I could plan everything perfectly when I started off, but now it's clear that the one trait I will need moving forward is : Adaptability. If you can adapt to the toughest of situations and the biggest of problems, you will make it through life, guaranteed. 

 

 

[Light]

So my real estate training begins in a couple weeks... and today my fortune cookie said this:

 

 

 

 

"You will do better in Real Estate than in Stocks."

 

Now... what are the chances that this fortune cookie lands in my hand at this point in my life?

 

Life is Magic.

 

Take Care - Light. 

[Light]

Part-Time Job.

 

 

I am a proponent of this, even if you're an Entrepreneur. I will list some of the benefits here.

 

- Know what makes a successful business. 

- Know your own flaws (constructive criticism)

- Learn to work in teams

- Be grounded in reality

- Be in touch with how the average citizen is thinking.

- If anything, observing how everyone else is in the world motivates you to work HARDER to achieve your dreams. 

 

It could be just a couple days a week to bring in a couple hundred extra bucks. Don't matter. I figure to be working around 25 hrs a week part-time and it's entirely worth it in terms of personal growth. I'd advice people on their journeys to give this a shot. Look for a suitable industry or line of work, and dive right in. 

[Light]

Sooo Superhero Update. 

 

So what was it... 8 months ago, I started calling myself Bullseye. Made sense back then. Now I feel like I am living life like Jason Bourne. 

 

 

Jason Bourne: "I can tell you the license plate numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you that our waitress is left-handed and the guy sitting up at the counter weighs two hundred fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab or the gray truck outside"

 

That's the essence of IA. Awareness. Sheer awareness. I would hear this often from a Buddhist Monk, but never understood the essence of it. Now I see why CIA Agents are able to do the unthinkable. 

 

Every single detail, all the time, is recorded. Stored. I journal it down now, they almost put it in their mindspace. The sheer detail of life is all captured, analyzed, and by doing that from a distance, they become by far the smartest socialites on the planet, and in general the greatest survivors ever seen. The more detail, the more awareness, the more awareness... the more superhuman you'll feel. 

 

The importance of paying attention to all the details? You will not miss a thing, you'll see through people, you'll see through motives, you'll see through the way the world operates, and best of all you'll figure out how to best use this knowledge to your advantage. They're aware of everything going on around them. Awareness. This is the key word. 

 

The more I train this muscle, the more I see it. 

 

It doesn't matter in what area of life we're on about. 

 

Dating

Relationships

Career

Sports

 

Anything at all comes down to this. Journal and journal with great detail. Really mold your mind into pure awareness, and you'll see the difference. 

 

I feel like figuring this out has been a big turning point in my journey. Knock life out - Light.

I love this Light

 

It's not so much intelligence but AWARENESS.

 

It's much easier to record, jot down the data so you can save it.

 

Raw intelligence is a little overrated compared to awareness!

 

I like this one

[Light]

My Actions Suck. 

 

This is another important breakthrough I had. What happens when you listen to subliminals, is you put them on, you receive favorable manifestations and then you keep going and trying out different tracks. 

 

Something felt off about everything lately, because while things happened, they never lead to true success. I decided to check out blind spots and went through everyone else's journal as well. I also went through journeys and successes of famous personalities. 

 

Then I realized something. 

 

My actions suck. 

 

 

Now what do I mean by that?

 

Let's say for example, a guy with no subliminals, who doesn't even know all this exists, goes about the process of achieving success in his dating life. He does a combination of all of this:

 

Hundreds upon Hundreds of Approaches. 

Action-Feedback-Adjustment. That is, based on the feedback given, he adjusts his style.

Changes his Wardrobe

Gets into Dancing

Gets into Improv

Learns how to make even the most mundane, dull topics super exciting. 

Figures out how to build an interesting lifestyle. 

 

... but taking all the necessary actions to maximize doesn't occur to the ones listening to these tracks. Should I tell what's happening to the average guy?

 

Listens. 

Goes, Checks for Reactions (OMG SHE LIKES ME)

Listens again.

... Changes track. 

Listens again. 

GOOD REACTION.

Changes track. 

 

 

In the meantime nothing has changed about the guy in a lasting way. It's the same guy. Same guy, and he's done all of this, and it's... the same guy. 

 

Finally he gets it, and makes a couple completely botched approaches. When the approaches don't work... he doesn't adjust. Instead!

 

He goes to listen to another track where girls fall for him. Visualizes intensely. 

Goes next day out. Sees the girl, YES, GOOD REACTION.

Finally he decides... well, dancing. Let's get into dancing. Shows up to Dance. Isn't super into it. 

 

 

In the meantime, the guy with no subliminals has made infinite progress along the road and lived through a solid journey. 

 

Subliminal Guy vs Perfect Action Guy. It's pretty obvious who won. 

 

What does this mean? Change in strategy? Probably, Yes. 

 

From now on,

 

1. Perfect Action First.

2. Subliminal Second. 

 

So how close was I to perfect action this whole time?

 

Yes, but do you know how slowly they occurred? Essentially what I would've written down with a few weeks of the dating process might just've taken me several months! Why? The ego. The ego got in the way, and even I didn't know it. Truth is, there are guys that are plenty successful without even knowing what the heck hypnosis is!

 

Now you see how your mind can trick you. There really isn't any cutting corners. This applies to all areas of your life as well, not just dating. 

 

Whatever your goal is  - ask yourself if things are changing in a lasting way. If they aren't, all the subs have done is worked on strengthening your ego instead of building about lasting change. Rock out - Light.

Great book for entrepreneurs, leaders, and winning in life.

 

If you suffer with any victim mentality patterns at all, this book will do away with them. Jocko was a Navy Seal, and some of his experiences in the power of leadership will astonish you.

 

And just to honor this book - I won't write anymore today. I am getting to work.

 

 

#Power of Action

 

Rock Out - Light. 

[Athena]

Firstly, I LOVE how visual your journal here is, not sure if I've said that!

With the dating thing and the action, I have a question for you.

BTW, I asked this guy (I've attracted free coaching, how cool! and my coach set this as one of my tasks, after we talked about it.  To ask this guy who 18 months ago said "Go & talk to guys you fancy and I will give you tips on your approach and how to improve and what you do well."  The coach said ASK him if he would still do that for you - cos back then not ONLY was I too shy to take him up on that but also I took a one year man break (stupid, stupid idea but oh well it seemed like a good idea at the time!)  

 

I asked the guy and he said he'd be happy to do that for me. :-)

HOWEVER

How the HELL do we stop letting our egos??? get in the way, fear of rejection, pain of rejection?

I'm not used to doing the "cold approach" (plus there is f all info out there on women on HOW to, except for the Matthew Hussey stuff and I DON'T want to go up to a guy and give him a LINE! 

 

Coach guy and I agree that if I want to meet OFFline guys rather than the way too horny online ones who just wanna bonk, I may need to learn to cold approach and keep doing it.

 

Especially when I live in a city when the men (not just with me but with women in general they are too scared to approach women most times.)

 

How does one deal with the knockbacks?

I guess that's what I'm really asking?

 

I agree about the wardrobe!!! but that's hard when money is thin on the ground.  Though when I got some money recently I DID include a new outfit for dates and social events (it's classy but also shows off my curves :-) )

 

And the scary thing also is, the coach said less jeans and sports shoes and more dresses - not for guys but to get you out of your comfort zone.  Cos it's lack of body confidence, it is.  I agree there.  One time there was a heatwave, back in 2013? And I felt like I HAD to wear miniskirts when out but as a rule no way, not anymore!

How do I cold approach over and over again, and not let rejections etc. let me get discouraged?  Esp. when I'm quite a bit older and often feel like therefore I am running out of time to get a relationship (Like I've said, I'm a cougar, but in a romantic, rather than sexual way, so therefore I feel time pressures???)   Gonna copy and paste most of this to main forum too. 

[Light]

Okay, you need to decide on several things, really commit, and keep at it. Any time I didn't commit to something, I got nowhere. I feel like this may be an issue for you - and if you're looking for romance you gotta learn to commit to yourself first. 

 

-----

 

So in my opinion ( There may be more, I'll list a few ) :

 

What's attractive is:

 

Physical Aspect or Wardrobe

Energy 

Social Prowess

Professional Prowess

Purpose

 

You can fling the order around all you want, but in some order that's attractive.

 

Your body - have you played sports, been to the gym, etc? You have to keep in great shape especially if you're getting up there in age as you claim. Commit to this. If you're serious, commit to some kind of routine here. 

 

Wardrobe - I said OR wardrobe. It's rare to find people have both together barring celebrity status. You could have both, no doubt about it. You'll have to decide and prioritize. 

 

Your profession - The Real Estate Millionaires in my industry can get a date with a classy woman, just by their professional prowess - they're at the top, in news articles, magazines, etc.. You gotta know this guy.

 

There's social prowess - like being part of a club and the most social person about. You can even be into social media and have your own site. Facebook? Many ways to go about this, especially today.

 

There's energy - some people give off such great energy you want to be around them all the time. Some people come across as hot purely by energy, as well. This sounds easy but it's really just as difficult as building yourself up in the gym, as you constantly have to be in a certain great mood, give off great vibes, etc.

 

There's purpose - the visionaries, people moving towards a higher vision, goal or purpose - be it for the community or having a purpose for themselves. 

 

Which parts do you plan on having together? Which parts do you not? What can you do to improve yourself? etc. 

 

 

Where do you meet guys?

 

One easy answer is your Location. Location. Location. 

 

At the end of the day, I imagine if you live in downtown of a big city or in a small town somewhere, your prospects are completely different. 

 

By the way, you may enjoy the small town feel more. I don't know. Where is your fulfillment? You decide. 

 

I'll say right now the competition is downtown Los Angeles is like the social olympics compared to this small city I live in which is about 40 minutes away. You need to look around you and decide if that's where you want to be.

 

 

You don't need advanced Cold Approach skills?

 

 

You seem to think that you do. Start a conversation. You'll know the guy's interested or not. Just start the damned conversation. 

 

I'll tell you a secret right now: Guys like it when the girl starts the conversation. It's like a pleasant surprise. There's nothing to fear. 

 

Criteria

 

You need a criteria to work with, and go with that. 

What do you want in a guy?

 

What are something things you NEED to have, that you CANNOT do away with? And some things that would be just nice like cherry on top of your cake?

 

You'll need to have criteria if you want something real. Finances? Occupation? Hobbies? What do you need him to have? 

 

Okay, I don't want you to overload with information. That's enough in 1 post. I'll say right now though, if you don't commit you'll get nowhere. Say screw you to everything until you have this figured out and written down somewhere you can refer to it from time to time. 

 

 

[Athena]

Amazing advice, light! Thank you!

Well, my job is ending the job that sucked up a lot of time & I let exercise go again.

Cycling is the best one for me but it's not a winter sport. If I had my own place I'd buy one of those exercise bikes! I will get

into ice skating again & cycling will be from the spring.

 

WArdrobe. Started attracting extra cash and one thing I got was a new dating/social outfit.

If I can get back to that being a money magnet again gradually I will build up the wardrobe.

Amazing woman in the shop is a chain but in some ways like a designer shop & I was thinking I want a personal shopper she was

like that to me & the new dress is great!

 

Real estate, huh?

I DID have a date with a real estate guy with a BMW but cos he was so busy he seemed to only have time for a Fwb so I

turned him down. But I'm considering CE map PLEASE PLEASE check out my latest post on the entrepreneur part of this forum I'd

REALLY appreciate your input if you know something about real estate!

 

Hmm location? I am in meetup groups and i am in London UK but as a long term expat myself I'll also try out ex pat groups too

 

Social prowess?

I know some people who have great people skills & have a guy agreed to be my wingman who runs groups

 

Criteria oh I know it!

 

Energy could do with work sometimes it naturally comes out great when I am really enjoying what I am doing but yes

could self discipline self more to maintain that increasingly

 

Thank you!!!!

 

Convos one thing going for me is my kick ass sense of humour. But I must open my mouth first and TALK

Even if he's hot.

I must remind myself you know believe it or not we women are conditioned to believe we have to look like a super model to

get a hot guy and also told all hot guys are bastards. And that we are not good enough for them

But really what a load of crap!

 

Thank you Light tons and tons

[Athena]

Occupation? Enough to afford to go out on dates & had to be able to

make time for me & outgoing enough that he likes to go out --- TV & sex quiet-nights guys bore me.

I think my love language is quality time doing fun things together and it can even be free!

[Athena]

My dream would be I just thought of this now

a gorgeous lovely very shy guy so shy he has not had much success with women and then he & I chat and he finds me

attractive & easy to talk to & we end up a couple and he realises how lucky he is to have me & how much he enjoys my

company (while we also have our own lives too obviously)

Or even a confident hunky lovely sweet guy who HAS had a lot of sex - SAFELY! He's got all that

Oh my God SEX! Oh my God women! Oh my God orgasms! Out of his system to the point where

sex in a vacuum bores him and he wants something that is not just sex but also someone he can talk with

go out with something that can grow

And he has come to the point where he craves connection WANTS a relationship he's

ready for that and then along comes me and he goes YES!! He's at the point of yes I love

sex but I really want someone I can talk to, go out with, get to know. And we meet & he thinks

and I would love it to be with HER!

Boom!

You'll see that I changed my journal's title to "Lifestyle", and that video is the key reason to why. It changed my perspective in many ways. 

 

And now... action time. 

 

 

 

P.S. Super short post, I know. I'll tell you what though. Look forward to my end of the year post. This is my first year on my wealth journey and I'll post up absolutely everything I've learned. There's a megapost coming up in December.

Well, you have a real flare for writing Light, this should be very interesting to hear your megapost!

[Light]

Alright guys, My first year is coming to a close. I don't know how much I've made exactly this year, mostly because this real estate deal is pending, but we'll see. 

 

I'll post up everything I've learned so far. 

 

1. Ground Yourself... You ARE making progress!

 

I can't state the importance of grounding. There will be times in your journey where you really just want to give up, but when you look back... you've made progress. In secret. But how! How does this happen!

 

 

 

If you look back to who you are now, compared to who you were maybe 1 year ago, or two years ago, it won't be a debate. You will know you've made progress. But what happens in the moment? You stumble, you forget. 

 

Do you have a goal? A vision to where you want to be? Maybe an idea of what your dream life could look like? Good... visualize and that, and then KNOW. THIS.

 

What matters is your next step. And that's it. 

What matters is your next step. And that's it.

What matters is your next step. And that's it.

 

And that's it. I did that 3 times on purpose. Write it on a wall, memorize it, hold that close to your heart. You can't avoid the bad days, and that's perfectly fine - because you're secretly making progress. 

 

If you started your sales pitch today and you blew it.

The next day you started your sales pitch, you blew it.

A week later, you started your sales pitch, and some good stuff came out.

Two weeks later, you had a GREAT CONVERSATION, but the client decided to not buy. 

 

Oh crap, I failed. I didn't make the sale. 

 

No. But you made PROGRESS and that is INDISPUTABLE! 

 

Be PATIENT with yourself. What matters is you're doing your BEST. If you DID your BEST, you will make progress. 

 

 

 

2. But why is this important to know? Because that is part of the reason you BURN. OUT. 

 

No joke. I used to wonder why I burned out so often. It was because even without knowing it, my focus was on result result result.

 

And guess what? Your mind is working overtime on that result result result and confused as to why there's no progress progress progress when in reality you're making progress, and then, inevitably... 

 

Burnout happens. And you feel miserable. Even something as your work ethic, has to be cultivated over time. If you're lazy now, chances are you won't have a monster work ethic overnight. 

 

And that leads to my next point. 

 

3. Screw Instant Gratification. 

 

Screw it. Trust me. You have time.Instant Gratification is like going for the McDonald's Burger. Fast food and gets it done. But do you want that, or do you want a well cooked meal prepared with much care? What is better for your body? I think we both know the answer. Prepare long term goals and stick to it, no matter what. 

 

4. What is your Why? Prioritize your Why. 

 

And it's never Money. Your why is why you're even on this journey. I've networked with people and watched countless videos on this topic - but your why is always something that doesn't have to do with the money itself. You want the Money so that you can have your dream dating life. You want the money so that people will finally recognize you and praise you. You want the money so that you can help other people grow and develop. 

 

Money is a means to an end - the end is your happiness. What is your happiness? Now it's perfectly possible that you want many, many, things for your happiness, so list them. List what you want for your happiness in life from maybe 1-5. or 1-10. - and then see how far it goes. Then make sure you fulfill your Top 3, or Top 5 things. How many is it that your life can fit? Decide upon that. And be HONEST with yourself. If it's your dream girl/guy, it's just THAT. 

 

5. Your Big Why will decide your lifestyle. 

 

If your big why for example is finding your dream girl/guy, and for many it can be just that, then you'll have to maximize your personal development skill. If your big why is fame and recognition, then you'll have to prioritize training your craft relentlessly. One need not replace the other, but priorities are important. Don't be ultra concerned of being a millionaire in 3-5 years if your biggest priority is your significant other. You can take it a little slower, reach a financial milestone that's somewhat lower, and have both financial security and a life that would attract your special other.

 

 

6. Pacing and Burnouts

 

I covered some of this earlier with the step by step process, but pacing can be tricky. I would keep track of your patterns (How do you feel when you sleep 6 hours? 8 hours? etc. Are you a morning person? etc. )

 

I have a period everyday I call downtime. Downtime is strictly for doing something I would enjoy and that's it. 

 

Reading a Good Book

Writing (Only if you enjoy writing)

Poetry ( same as above)

Music

Dance

History Channel

Nature Channel

Sci Fi

Psychic Stuff

Archery

Surfing

Mountain Climbing

Step out of comfort zone (purely for enjoyment)

 

Doesn't matter, do something daily. Appease your heart. If you can create something in your downtime, such as a poetry blog, even better. This I guarantee will keep your refreshed. Children always have great energy, and this will reconnect you with that part of yourself. Now you might be in a profession that's already connected to your heart and you do that for your everyday craft - in which case you'd have to pick something different and outside your comfort zone. 

 

By doing this daily you'll be just fine. In fact, chances are you'll have enough energy to work on your life all 7 days a week ( I actually am able to do this now). 

 

Strangely enough, this is my downtime for today. I naturally enjoy writing, and I am delivering this post on the forums. 

 

 

7. Give. 

 

I think this is one lesson that's really important for any LoA person. So many of us are focused on asking. I want to be a great musician, I want my perfect lover, I want my dream car, etc. Be more focused on giving, and more of what you want will come to you. 

 

If there's an old woman that needs help, assist her for no cost.

If there's something you can do but the other person can't, lend them a helping hand.

If someone wants help with figuring out dating, help them in any way you can. 

 

When you go out of your way to help, people remember. This is really related to finances, it really is. It's not a karmic spiritual cliche - it's the truth. When you offer something of value without expecting anything in return, and you do it repeatedly, the universe offers something back - a Thank You. That Thank You could come in many ways. 

 

My Real Estate coach works with me at ANY GIVEN TIME. ANY GIVEN TIME. I texted her questions on Thanksgiving, and she texted me back right away answering my questions. On Thanksgiving when everyone's off. Why? Because I helped her out of a tough situation with a homeowner for nothing. If there are people needing assistance, just give it. Give as much as you can. You'll earn respect, love, gratitude, and maybe, just maybe, someday it'll come back to you. In this age of Social Media, you never know what your next act of kindness can lead to. 

 

Alright, that's it for now. Post Comments, tell me if you agree/disagree. Ask Questions, whatever comes to you, ask away. Crazy Talk - This post might've a part 2 on a later date. We'll see. 

 

Thanks. - Light
