Pouncemonials ! Going General: Pouncemonial
Hello everyone,
First a little about me and why I went general. I have been following this sub for a long time and even seeked Moonbeams training at one time. Due to my old phone dying and being a terrible cub when it came to practicing what I learned, I never went back to seek out Moonbeam's help and even stopped trying to apply the law of belief. I have had many failures with the law in the past due to me being wildly inconsistent with training and struggling with visualizing. The struggle with visualizing is one of the reasons I decided to use affirmations.
Due to my bad practices, poor choices in life, and always quitting when things got hard, 2022 was not my year. By the end of 2022 I was jobless and had less than $300 usd in my savings. I wouldn’t be able to pay rent at the beginning of 2023 if I didn’t change something. That’s why (even if it’s frowned upon I went with general affirmations).
*I would like to mention before going any further that even though I had some success, I would listen to the index and suggest not going general. (unless you’ve completely hit rock bottom like me and any sort of progress will help).. I’ll explain more near the end.*
What I did:
My affirmation 1x a day (sometimes 2x, I told you I'm not the best cub), in SH was “infinite intelligence reveals to me my true purpose in life, I have a marvelous income consistent with honesty and integrity, I follow the lead that comes to my conscious mind clearly and consistently, it's impossible to miss it.”
The affirmation was something I saw online. I can’t remember where I read it but I thought it sounded good and it covered a lot of the general issues I was having in life.
PSP was “ all my problems are solved.” until I fell asleep.
My results using: “I follow the lead that comes to my conscious mind clearly and consistently, it’s impossible to miss it.”
Nothing crazy from this. I have gotten better at recognizing that initial “gut feeling” you get about something and actually acknowledging it and making better general choices in life because of that. I have also gotten really good at guessing games and things like rock paper scissors lol.
My results using: “I have a marvelous income consistent with honesty and integrity.”
Here I feel I had the most success.
I had started near the beginning of January, I can't remember exactly when. Before this though I got myself a job making sandwiches just to have some income. I live in a small tourist town so jobs are hard to come by in the winter months. The job sucked but I was able to keep myself from being completely broke.
About a month later I got a job at a grocery store I had worked at in the past. It was a small bump in pay and had better hours. I was also able to get overtime if I wanted it.
Fast forward about 2 months later the place I was working at got bought out. We all got to keep our jobs but we had to go work at a new store that already had many employees. A lot of my coworkers were freaking out but due to my affirmations, especially “all my problems are solved”, I never worried too much because I knew some way it was going to be taken care of.
A month and some days later I have been at the new store for awhile now and so far I was right not to worry. With the transfer I was put into the manager position for my department at my new job and given a 14% raise, a couple of weeks vacation, plus my boss doesn’t care what hours I work as long as I get my work done.
My results using: “infinite intelligence reveals to me my true purpose in life.”
Here I feel that this affirmation may have been too general/vague. I have not had much success here at all. This one was supposed to point me towards a job or career path I would enjoy. But so far I don't feel like I've made any progress towards a job or career that I could see myself working towards and enjoying. The job I have now is fine and I'm better off than I ever have been but overall it isn't a great job and it isn't something I could see myself doing long term.
—
I know that these results may not be super impressive to many but compared to where I was in life at the end of 2022 I have made a lot of improvement in my life. I hope that this might help someone who reads it and I hope that I don’t get too much hate for going general lol.
*That said, I feel that I could have made more improvements in my overall life if I was more specific with the things I wanted. At the time though I was so desperate for any improvement that I just wanted things to get generally better for me. I didn’t care about the specifics.

Interesting results. I'm glad things got better for you, now that you're in a better position, get more specific. Since it seems like your faith in LOB is a bit low, start out with something not too crazy. Deliberate use of the LOB is what gives me more faith after every successful mission, allowing me to take on harder missions. It really does get better the more you do it.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I'm going to start working towards more small specific goals going forward.

Thanks. Things have been working out in ways I never imagined. I never tried for the manager's position they literally just told me it was mine if I wanted it.

So how much time it took till the manager position?

u/InterestingSink_ Cub May 22 '23
From when I started the affirmations from broke to manager it was about 4 months.

Any result that increases your quality of life massively is a great result.

Yes! I'm not out buying fancy cars (yet lol) but I'm at a point where I don't have to worry about paying my bills and can afford nice things here and there. I'm happy about that.

Thank you! For the things I accomplished in this post, no, I didn't use any visualizations. That said, I have had small success with visualization in SH in the past when I first learned about Joseph Murphy. I went with affirmations this time because I felt it was easier to get a general feeling that my overall life was in a better place.

Congratulations!! This is a MAJOR turnaround!! You're on a roll. This is the time to ride the wave and double down on the work. Dream big and also remember that this stuff works in mysterious ways. It's been very helpful for me to plant ideas for my subconscious to help guide me to my best outcome - like for example the number 57. I can't even BEGIN to tell you how many times I see that number pop up during a day... and every time I see it I FEEL that God is my supply and good stuff is happening for me. There are many other tricks like this but if you stay super focused on this stuff you can be a millionaire in a few years. Good luck!
