There’s many ways to skin this cat…
I’m assuming that most of the members here are part of several similar subreddits and that’s quite beneficial because acquiring all sorts of information and knowledge from various sources is beneficial.
I think it’s important on this journey to remember that we’re all uniquely different and our bodies are naturally going to respond quite differently than others. All the techniques and guides out there are happily shared because they are the blueprint that lead to someone’s “Eureka!” moment on their journey. Often, I’ll see posts from exuberant people that have reached a new milestone and are very excited to share what they’ve learned. And they should be excited. And they should celebrate and share their triumphs.
The thing is that while there’s commonality in certain areas, there’s also incredible diversity too. There’s also no standardized lingo and terms are casually tossed around by various people in different ways. This leads to confusion.
What one person calls P-wave might be what another calls a Mini-O.
One person might be getting results from a very “active” approach and celebrating success, but that success may not be the same success we’re aiming for. Their success may be in the form of sympathetic reflex-based orgasm achieved in a novel way, so it’s important not get too caught up in what appears to be working for others.
We’re after the orgasmic state that rises from the parasympathetic nervous system and it is the opposite of active. It’s about presence.
When looking at the posts that describe success, look for inspiration from it but don’t get fussed about trying to make it work for you step by step. Let its content give you ideas to try but use those ideas loosely. Experiment. Explore. Think of them as suggestions and nothing more.
I’ll leave you with an analogy, because it’s kinda my thing…
Consult several similar recipes looking for commonality between each and use the ingredients that show up in each recipe, but get creative and start adding ingredients you think you might like and make a unique meal from scratch but “inspired by” the other recipes. Maybe it’ll be a flop, but you learned something in the process.
Or maybe, you knock it out of the park and everyone starts asking for YOUR recipe!
