Me: 40, athletic, married w/3yr old, first week with a grab bag of mones (a314 and almost every togo instant).

Sorry, but just cant discipline myself to try each one solitarily for a full week. Almost, but not quite. Usually restraining myself to a314 and one of the instant line.

Been hitting 2-3 drops of A314 almost daily. Definitely seeing effects both on self and others (feedback loop?), partially detailed in a314 section.

Buffered a314 with IS for first 4 days. 2 sprays on day 1, probably helped keep company at ease. 3 sprays day 2, MAJOR self effects at onset, LOVED it. Effects carried over into a great large group social setting, where I was totally “on” and drew a gathering of happy fun folks, some of whom I knew previously, some who I just met. Good time had by all. Stayed with 3 sprays for day 3 for occaisional appearances at wife’s “girl party”. Not the same tremendous “initial onset buzz” this time, but got particularly singled out by 1 pregnant asian woman and then later by 2 older (60ish) women for lengthy, lively conversation. Was vociferously complimented by longtime latina friend that I had lost weight and looked “so skinny” when in fact I have gained weight since she last saw me. Day 4 I went with 3 sprays again, just previous to a bit of 1-on-1 design work with a friend/client. Didint notice much difference from our normal interaction, which is always a barrel of monkeys.

Day 5 essentially wasted 3 drops of a314, due to near total lack of human contact.

Day 6 Did 3+2 drops of A314, (reapplied after 8 hours, long day followed by seminar). Added 2 sprays instant openness for some shopping. First store had 2 clerks, myself and one other customer in line chattering away on a multi-threaded line of talk. Following 3-4 stores no noticeable responses, even with my prompting. After about 3 hrs I went to get my hair cut, hit one more spray of IO. My stylist is always chatty, but today he was LOUD and chatty, and I got sucked right into it too. We were both yucking it up a bit too boisterously with political gallows humor. He had to tell me to hold still a couple of times, cuz I was gesticulating. He actually made his first-ever mistake on my hair…a slightly too-close trim over my left ear. Not sure if it was me moving,or him distracted. In retrospect, IM quite stupid for testing mones in a semi-critical operation like that. Good thing it wasnt surgery!

Then it was on to the seminar. I hit 3 sprays of IS and 2 more drops of a314 (had been about 8hrs since initial application). I caught a couple of ghost effects from friends, and even a bit of aggression from one friend (interestingly, a lesbian woman) after re-application. Can probably settle on 3 drops for an entire waking day, no matter how long. The IS (and I guess residual IO) really did its job in general. I again drew a crowd of funny happy folks, a mix of previous friends and associates, and a few newly-mets. Interesting, to observe some friends really take a “shine” to me while others get put off.

Day 8: big convention. Juiced up with 3 drops a314, 2 sprays IO, 2 sprays IH, 4 sprays IS. Networking seemed smooth as silk…IM saying all the right things, they seem to be hearing all the right things, even a stand-offish rival seems to warm up and get friendly. Have a superb meeting with a previous client, our first face-to-face meeting. Was supposed to be a quick drink, turns into 2 hours, many new possible joint ventures in the coming year. Maybe I should have field tested the IH before jumping headlong in, but my previous testing seemed to indicate that 2 (to go) sprays is fairly safe.

So it looks like the mones are gonna do just what I had hoped for in the business applications dept, which is to help me be more consistently and fully myself. And sign me up for the “[Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/)” fan club. Just ordered a full 2x bottle.

I’ve started delving into LTR applications (with IFM, IH, Ammo, TUTH) and will report on them as more data is gathered. So far this area seems as if it will require the most tweeking.
