Felt the momentum come back yesterday. Today should be good.

Dream

Intention (2255 the night before)

If awake enough to consider writing, do some writing!

WBTS on one of these wake ups.

Bed time.

Wake (logged at 0700 this morning)

Laying down. Seeing if dreams come back to me. Have the hynagogic thoughts again.

I believe I had a Mario Kart racing dream.

Mario Kart Racing

I am karting on the race track near Princess Peach's castle. In the N64 version of this race track you can explore outside the castle. I feel like it isn't possible in this version.

A racer bumps me into an area, triggering a long cut scene, causing me to get dead-last in the race.

Pre-nap (1235)

Think of work. Think of task at hand and what's left. Will look over and list it.

Okay, done. Let's nap!

Post-nap (1256)

Success. This weekend we'll focus on non-work things (and experiment a bit as well).

Meditation (Day 120)

Intentions for the day:

• Stay in posture part of prep until you're prepared to set the intention to stay still
• Stage 4 intention (vigilance on keeping introspective awareness continuous)
• Fall back to stage 3 if necessary
• Note where the breath was when you label a distraction (attention, awareness, or forgotten)
• Try to catch a distraction as it enters awareness and/or attention

Post-Meditation

Almost another best day, but I maybe burned myself out with too much attention and awareness. However, did a good job keeping the distractions from cascading, even as I think I struggled a bit with dullness. Solid day. Feeling somewhat likely that by next weekend I'll be considering stage 4 "mastered" (though really I expect some gross distractions here and there for quite a while).

Once I'm done reading Shape-Up, I'll need to read a few more chapters of the Mind Illuminated.

Experimental

Good to be back to maintenance in the morning. Will need to decide on next experiment this weekend.

General Thinking

Today was pretty good, but didn't make time for all the things.
