Very useful indeed, profoundly simple insight (and what I'd been doing a
lot of as it happens: asking the mind to process or give answers, or
even give permission?! rather than simply choosing & doing). A common
blind spot no doubt!
Thanks for sharing : )

Subject: [TROM1] Notes on RI - I stopped making it complicated

I hope this note will help someone down the road avoid the mistake I was
making with RI, and can see how simple it can be for the purposes of having
a successful timebreaking session.
The mistake I was making was that I presented the creation to my mind for
processing and not simply put it all around me as an exercise.
Thanks to feedback from fellow trommers, I have more certainty and
attention to actually put the item around my physical space and not in my
head - not in my mind for my mind to process. It is now simply an exercise.
I am exercising command power over my mind.*I* am doing the exercise
(technically one could say my current valence is doing the exercise, and it
suffices for now).
Starting off the RI exercise using six directions (front/back, top/bottom,
left/right) helps me ensure I really put the object(s) in my actual space
around me, compared with how I was doing it for a long time.
To keep it simple I choose an object in my room - nothing fancy - a lamp
will do. I hold the object (or multiples of the object, for example, three
lamps) in six directions and then add more so the objects (i.e., all the
lamps I created) are all around me; alternatively, I can make one larger
object and put it all around me holographically (i.e., a very large version
of the lamp).
I do the same for "another", choosing some object they might have in their
space. I don't get into any psychological aspects ... I just want to keep
it simple and get onto timebreaking.
Either way does the job. I feel stress coming off, it's relaxing, and I
feel positive I'm ready to start the timebreaking.
Thank you fellow trommers for straightening me out on this with your
feedback.
Note: I'm not denying there are a lot of fun and interesting things one can
do with RI.
For example, I did recently post how I was using extended RI to create
something from the ground up, and that was more a hobby and not related to
a timebreaking session.
