    Most of the others I know replace OOT with TT, and then TT with EOM.
    I personally plan on keeping all three up until I reach Step Two
    (again), the better to strengthen my will with.

    But, as with physical exercise, there comes a time when mental
    exercise ceases to yield results; this is when you move on to
    something more strenuous (that is, keeping EOM, ditching the rest and
    moving on to Step Two).

    I never thought of that interpretation... I just keep going. When
    Bardon said that eventually ten minutes in the morning and evening
    will suffice, I figured that he meant to keep building up. Logically
    speaking, it would make more sense to build up the ability to realize
    your wishes in any case. The skill of impregnation is the same; each
    wish is just a different concept, not a different skill.

    I know the feeling. This will be the third time I've restarted the
    work, and now that I have stripped away my delusions about the
    material and myself I find it much easier to do the exercises.

    Fortunately, we have all of these other nice people to help each
    other out, right? =)
