Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol.9

[Sky]

Shannon and others,

I wanted to touch on a topic that I wanted some feedback.

Is everything happening around a us coming purely from subconscious mind?

Meaning if I change whats inside me, or what I think is inside me, everything outwards changes?

It is a deep question, but for context, I have been chasing financial freedom for years. Constant actions, and hustle etc. but lately I have been questioning the validity of this approach and decided to do a mini trial.

I let go of everything, no to do list, no goals, and instead I started writing, at the end of each day, I would sit, and write about my ideal day, an alternate version of today, but in the best scenario that I wanted.

I would do this every night for like 5-10 min, it gave me inspiration, and imagination.

But things started to appear, things that I wrote started to actually happen in my day to day life.

Now in my writings, there is a general theme or commonality, but I write everyday something slightly different than the day before, sort of a different life path.

Now I am wondering instead of hustling through the rabbit hole chasing financial freedom, chasing ideal fwbs chasing other things.

What if I just sit every night for extended time say 45 min to write about my ideal day. Have that inspiration. And call it a day, and let life happen to me. Let life unfold to me naturally and I drift around it naturally, instead of me trying to steer the wheel and encounter resistance at every turn.

What are your thoughts guys on this? Anyone tried something similar? I know Duke practiced this in a different version.

Let me know what you think.

I think everything surrounding us is a combination of our subconscious interacting with the world. Our subconscious just tunes us in to a certain channel on the radio in which we experience the world. The subliminals are one way to do that. Writing our goals is another. I've done that in the past, typing out my goals out, printing the paper, and posting it on the wall, and they all came true. Maybe I should do it again, but I've just been doing what I can with the subliminals. A good question for Shannon, though. These are just my 2 cents. I hope Shannon writes a book on this someday.
