How it began ....

Dudes.

I was never interested in becoming a jock. It sort of "just happened".

Several years ago, I visited one of my favorite regular websites, http://www.warpmymind.com/ --which everyone refers to as WMM for obvious reasons -- looking at what new hypnosis files were available. I had been a fairly constant visitor and hypnosis file user for the last few months. I enjoy hypnosis. I had used the files often enough that just hearing the voice of EMG [Evil Mindwarp Guy, owner of the site and maker of many of the hypnosis files] was almost enough to put me in trance. A few friends also share this problem. I found some training files I was interested in. They were Train Erotic Dreams [my dirty mind keeps wanting to remember it as Train Lurid Dreams] and Train Lucid Dreams. Listed between these two files was another file in which I had no interest: Train Total Jock.

WMM has three types of files. The most innocuous are "Trigger" files, where a post-hypnotic suggestion is implanted so that you will act in a preprogrammed way when the "trigger" is spoken. The trigger is usually of the form "(blank) time for you.", where (blank) refers to the post-hypnotic suggestion that was implanted. To return to normal functioning, someone has to say the phrase "Revert to normal.". Next are "Train" files, which implant desires that affect your behavior [but can be reversed]. Then there are "Curse" files, which are irreversible changes -- and there is a sort of "dare you" challenge built into the very irreversibility, especially for non-believers in hypnosis.

Back to Train Total Jock [TTJ]. [I abbreviate everything.] I was going to listen to one of the dream files -- I have trouble remembering any dreams and thought this might help. At the last minute, I decided to listen to the other file. Instead of listening to either dream file, I accidentally clicked on the file between them, Train Total Jock. Oooooooooops! The suggestions on TTJ are basically that you are totally interested in "sports, sex, drinking, and working out" and that's about it ... and, oh, yeah, you also get a lot dumber. You enjoy watching sports, playing sports, talking about sports, you like sex, beer, lifting weights, muscles, exercise ... and these basically become your only interests. You become a basic "dumb jock" stereotype, in other words.

Not to worry, right? I can always use the file EMG made for canceling out any unwanted effects. Seems he had a few complaints about files that worked too well ... It was late at night, I was on a public computer, and the place was about to close. I just had time to finish up listening to TTJ, pack up, and go home when the place closed. No worry. I can come back tomorrow and use the cancellation file.

Yeah, right.

I got home, read for a while, watched the eleven o'clock news, the Jay Leno Show, and instead of going to bed, started flipping channels. I settled on the SPEED channel and watched a three-hour rebroadcast of the latest NASCAR Winston Cup [now Sprint Cup] Race. Jeff Gordon [# 24 DuPont Chevy, Hendrick Motor Sports] won.

This was unusual behavior for me. I detested sports ... with a passion.

Using hypnosis, it is easier to turn a negative emotion into a positive emotion than to create something from nothing. I had all these negative emotions about jocks from high school -- I was the nerd who was always getting picked on in high school. Due to my grand mal epilepsy not being controlled sufficiently, the school board -- in its infinite wisdom -- decided that it was too risky for me to be allowed to take any physical education class. I was the only person in high school exempt from phys ed. I didn't even know where the gym was ... and looked it.

So, since I couldn't play sports -- I never learned how -- and never exercised, of course, I was never interested in sports.  Not in watching sports, not in playing sports, not in talking about them ...

TTJ was working quite well for listening once.  And I listened to it quite often.  I even broke down and ordered an MP3 of the hypnofile from WMM.  Since I could listen to it for free, why bother?  Well, I wanted to listen to it at night, right before I went to bed ... and maybe punch the repeat button on the mp3 player and listen all night while I slept.

I never did get around to listening to the cancellation file.

I went from no interest in sports or working out to an obsession in one easy hypnosis session.

I started a dairy about a week later to track the changes.  Yes, I was definitely noticing changes in my behavior and my beliefs.  I may dig out those handwritten diaries and publish a few selected entries

Peace and muscles,
