Hm… well… as far as I’ve read, I need energy in two different ways:
I need to write a scientific paper (120 pages) and do other stuff like that as well. So I need something to get motivation and defeat my weaker self. (desk work)
I’m quite down, sad and such lately and can’t develop much interest to do something like going out, doing sports, etc. Need a new drive there too. (more physical)
What might help in these two situations? The 1st one is way more important!
I do not know all the ingredients in mx100 or mx99. I do know that mx100 contains some -none, and that mx99 contains less -none (about half?)
I have no idea if TAF and p79 are components in the mix or not. I think there is a small amount of TAF in it, from my personal experience, I don’t know so much about the p79.
They definitely have a ‘let’s go out!’ kinda feeling, but I wouldn’t use it for a specific task. When I think ‘safari’, I think, let’s go out there and see what we can find.
To give you an example of how that plays out, my friends and I were going to the beach, ended up getting some frozen yogurt instead, then going downtown. Go figure.
In short, my attention wanders and I’m always noticing new things, I want to look around. That, I believe is a result of -none and TAF. That isn’t meant to imply that you can use -none as a ‘motivator’, though it can certainly ‘motivate’ people in the right situation.
For academic motivation, I suggest p93. I find that so far, it’s been the best as far as mental clarity goes. Don’t overdo it though, otherwise it’s kinda like having too much caffeine, I can’t do anything cause I’m trying to move too fast.
For social motivation, or..whatever you wanna call it. p79 and -none are probably at the top of my list. -none just gets me pumped up. It doesn’t really matter what I’m doing, all of a sudden I’m feeling kinda scrappy, ready to throw down for whatever. If that’s going on a run, playing basketball, or meeting girls, whatever…but (and maybe this is revealing of my character..) I’m also ready to get into fights more, and that’s not something I like too much.
p79 on the other hand, is less…‘motivational’, you could say, but it’s not so much about ‘desire’ to do something, as it is a wind to your back. -none makes me wanna fuck, fight, or have fun in one way or another. p79 sorta just moves my hand for me.
However, the best thing you can do for going out when you’re sad, is actually to just go out. If you know you have a reoccuring pattern where when you get sad, you socially isolate yourself, you should make the effort to not isolate yourself, IF you know that’s the best way for you to get out of your mental rut. I get that way, and when that happens, no matter how stupid or random it might sound to me, I just try and go out with a friend or two.
My experience is that pheromone self-effects only last for the first few exposures. If you did find what you are looking for it would probably only work 2 or 3 times.
