Kinda. But it is more that there are only so many seconds in a day. I would ramble for hours--on any number of topics here--if I had more time available for this. It could be a great hobby.

Hello mgrego2, concerning encoding: I think, you mean how to represent up to 34 times a process in 7 seconds? Well, that's a problem I had to! The technique suggested by Paul Scheele using sounds did not work for me - I'm a more visual type. So I did the following: I took a piece of paper and draw patterns: The five of a dice for the five, a little pyramid with ten dots for the ten etc., combining them for the higher numbers. While using Automatic Pilot, I just let the dots flare, firing off the desired behaviour. Hope this help, Jens P.S.: Here's the 10-dot-pyramid: . .. ... .... .....

Jens, That's an interesting idea. So you look at the dots and watch them flare up in a pattern that matches the desired quantity? What is the link between the dots and the process? How do you choose which pieces of the process are represented? I may be over-analyzing this, but I'm trying to decide what I can successfully use AP for and how I can represent those things that I choose to use. Thanks for your idea.

Yes, that's the way I do it. For the smaller numbers I let them flare in sequence, for the larger numbers, I let them flare in numbers that just feel right for me. quote:

Well, when I go through the first sequence of steps to my goal, I notice how this experience, how the accomplishment feels. When firing off the dots, I simply re-experience this feeling, representing all of the steps at once. Hope this helps, Jens

Jens, I just wanted to thank you for your tips regarding the "Flaring Dot Method." I've finally gotten around to trying it out. It's the first Automatic Pilot-B session that I've listened to without getting stressed out. I'm sure it will have a big impact. Thanks again.

mgrego2 & Jens, I don't know what you are talking about, but i expect the AP tape to arrive any day now. I do know that Dana did some coaching w/ me on the phone on how to use this tape. He's never done that b/f. I really like the concept of the Fibonacci progressions. It really interests me to attempt to experience this concept.

Margaret, Once you've evaluated Dana's suggestions, I hope you'll consider sharing them. Once you get the tape and understand what is being asked, you might also consider doing things Jen's way and comparing the two.

I am totally confused w/ the AP tape. I have forgotten everything Dana said to me. It seemed like i really understood him. My goal & the steps are very clear. How am i to take something that has 10 steps to achieve & see those steps flash 34 times in 7 seconds? I'm not totally clear on Jens concept either! Pete you wrote this: Your brain can handle it as long as you don't let your conscious mind rule. I understand this. But, how am i to set my conscious mind aside to do something that takes 10 steps 34 times in 7 seconds. Note: i had to just put it aside b/c my head hurt. But, i feel challenged & excited to grasp this concept. Help to one and all.........thanks!

Based on Jen's idea, I created a sheet where I had dots looking like the faces of a die. I would put combinations of the dice to get the particular quantities in the sequence. On the first shot (one-time) I would visualize the whole process and note my feelings as I went through it. When I got to the point that I could no longer visualize the process, I would look at the appropriate line (say 8, 21, whatever) and feel that feeling while imagining some of the dots "flaring" at me. The number of dots I would flare at once would be determined by how many total I had to do. For instance, for 8, I could do one at a time. For 21, I would flare 2 or 3 at a time. Does that make any sense?
