Welcome reader! A short update on the crypto markets. The last seven days have been rough for most. Alts are down between 5 - 10%, while full-on meme coins are down between 10 - 15%. You already know our take on it… Everyone who is not financially free should be happy when crypto is down. Allowing you to accumulate more and profit off later. Should you panic? Should you sell? Should you worry? If you have been following what we preach on Twitter - being smart with your allocation. Absolutely not. Instead, you should focus on your cash flow - allowing you to buy more at a discount.
Back to our main topic.
There are zero chances you have not heard about manifesting, visualizing your goals, and believing you have already achieved something before achieving it. Some swear by it. Others say it’s a woo-woo type of business and a time waste. Our take? Somewhere in the middle. We do become what we think about - no one can deny that. The manifestation has a negative reputation considering how it’s connected with the lazy spiritual individuals living in the SEA, teaching others Yoga and doing the bare minimum to survive. Your reputation lowers if you use that word in a serious experiment. Our advice is to replace the whole concept of manifestation with self-reprogramming. Self-reprogramming is not our topic, but it plays a role in our topic. What most people have never asked themselves? What would their ideal life look like.
Designing Your Life
Life setup: Before changing anything in your life setup. You must know the answer. What is the idea of your ideal life? Your vision? You would get a hundred different answers if you asked a hundred people. Most answers would overlap in the core concepts. Family, income, location, and status - all necessary for the quality of life. Questions you should be asking yourself? Family: Do I want to have kids? What about marriage? Are you taking care of your old folks? Location: Big city or the village by the sea? Mountains or sea? Tax optimization? Status: With what people do you want to be associated with? Weak to material items? Do you care about fame? Income: Do you want to work for someone else? What about running your own business? Your income depends on a certain location? All the answers you give play a big role in your life. Family over location? Freedom over the wealth? Only you know the answer to those questions - they should help you with point allocation below. If you have never asked yourself where you want to be in the next few years we encourage you to do it. Take fifteen to twenty minutes and write everything you value and prioritize. Forget about any template or scheme. Your goal should be to dump your thoughts on the paper nothing else. Doing this once per year should give you a solid overview of how you are progressing and where you are heading. Throughout the years, your answers will change, and your priorities will change. Nothing unexpected. It all comes down to getting an answer to the question. What do I want? What steps am I taking? What category am I falling into? Do I want to be part of that stereotypical group? The only way to get answers to those questions is to ask yourself.
Prioritizing: Now that you have a basic overview of where you want to be - the next step is more important. We already mentioned the basic categories: family, income, location, and status. Take those and split points across those categories based on your value. The maximum you can give to a category is ten points. Does family matter to you? Let’s say you give it - seven points, income - four points, location - five, and four - status. Giving you a solid overview of what is important to you. Better said what you prioritize over the other. To design your life, you need to know what is important to you, and twenty-point allocation into core concepts is a solid way to put it. This is efficient because having ten points in the income section but working as a back-office finance worker means you must put much more effort into money making. What about family? You put eight points into that category, but you are thirty-five years old with occasional weekend hookups? If both are something you have also experienced with your allocation… Ask yourself. Am I designing my life as I want to, or am I just participating?
Self-reprogramming: A minimal thirty-minute investment should give you both answers: 1) What’s your ideal lifestyle 2) What are you prioritizing? We are being detailed with it because they go hand in hand. One doesn’t make much sense without the other. You don’t want to contradict yourself? This means you must start putting in the work aligned with your vision. Your vision of yourself is based on your priorities. The other option? You are changing your priorities. This is where self-reprogramming comes into play. Those who live like Playboys but "want to settle down with the family" are only playing themselves. Wasting their time and ending up in the same place they used to be. Everyone knows at least one individual who always complains they are not where they want to be but are doing things that contradict their goal. We covered it in the lifestyle traps and how you can’t help those who don’t want to help themselves. The same goes for your activities. Are your activities not aligned with your priorities? Your future vision will not be achieved. Meaning? You are doing something wrong. We are trying not to turn this into a philosophical read. The reality for most is that they will not achieve what they see for themselves. Luckily for our readers reading this, take this as a wake-up call. Remember - long-term vision only. No matter what you possess or have access to, you won’t make it if you are unhappy. When it comes to whole manifestation and self-reprograming, believing you have already achieved something to get you so far. Self-reprogramming comes down to doing the actions that will help you achieve your plan. You won't be moving forward if you don’t know your vision - wasting your precious time at the same place you have been before.
A group experience takes place on a lower level of consciousness than the experience of an individual. This is due to the fact that, when many people gather together to share one common emotion, the total psyche emerging from the group is below the level of the individual psyche. If it is a very large group, the collective psyche will be more like the psyche of an animal, which is the reason why the ethical attitude of large organizations is always doubtful. The psychology of a large crowd inevitably sinks to the level of mob psychology. If, therefore, I have a so-called collective experience as a member of a group, it takes place on a lower level of consciousness than if I had the experience by myself alone - Carl Jung
Realization and what you won’t be able to avoid: Your vision and actions will place you in a specific character (stereotype - archetype) group. That is unavoidable. You despise self-proclaimed spiritual healers, but somehow you value freedom and could not care less about income or family? There is a high chance you are on the same wavelength as them. The only difference is that your life situation is different - at the moment. Your actions and path are off from what you want in the future? That’s when self-reprogramming should happen. Giving you the ability to change your situation. Getting answers on where you want to find yourself - being transparent with your current path. Another point in favor of self-reprogramming is the ability to recognize the skills and abilities that will put you where you want to be. Do you aim to hang out with your city's creme de la creme individuals? Knowing club promoters and bouncers will be of value to others in that same group. Do you want to be surrounded by the wealthy older gents? Save some cash and join your local country club - plenty of them there. This is how you actively participate in designing your life. Building yourself now so that one day you will find yourself in an environment you always wanted to be part of.

Character types and behaviors: We are bundling archetypes and stereotypes together. We are sure Jung would not agree with our take, but the term archetype is being misused for stereotypes. Archetype is used to describe human nature, while stereotype is used to describe a specific group of people that share certain ideas. No denying there are huge connections between those - they go hand in hand. What is our point here? Realize that you can’t run away from becoming a character that belongs to a group. The archetype you have built deep in yourself will sooner or later associate you with a stereotypical group. You must realize this as soon as possible to allow yourself enough time to change the things that fit your goal. Remember that spiritual healer? Rarely anyone wants to become one. But a few wrong steps in your life and suddenly you are moving out to an island and calling yourself a healer - sounds stupid. Until you one day find yourself with your back against the wall. That is how life works out for the average. Being unprepared, getting in a tough spot, and looking for a quick fix to your problem. Result? You are adapting your life based on the easiest way out. The one you never wanted for yourself. Now throw into the mix priorities… Things get interesting - fast. The difference between the self-reprogramming concept vs. none. It is the ability to recognize the position where you are and what action you should take to get where you want to be. Designing your life in the process. You remember those prioritization points you have put into the core categories? Let’s see how they align with the common character types (stereotypes) and where you might end up based on your priorities. Most of our readers won’t fit into any of those. But the average? They never disappoint.
