The Power of Your Subconscious… or at least mine

So the reason I’m even writing this post at 7am, while I should still be sleeping, is because of a chain of events that was set off at around 5am…

It all started with me waking for a quick bathroom trip. Naturally I then checked my phone and noticed the Tinder app because of my friend who started using these apps, I kind of wanted to “compete” with him just for fun.

So I opened the app and saw that I got a match. Eventually I decided to send her a message. The decision making process, I recall, was something like this:

  1. Rational mind: hm… seems the match was made a month ago… should I really send her a message…
  2. Subconscious: let’s check her bio… hm… I see a few talking points
  3. RM: I dunno…
  4. SC: I got this! Just type for me
  5. RM: OK… it’s 6am… what the heck… you have control

So SC sends her a few well crafted messages…

SC: Hey by the way, what about our bio?

RM goes and checks… it’s empty… meh goes back to sleep…

An hour or so later…

SC: Eureka!! I got the perfect thing, get up! start typing

And so now I have a bio.

RM: Hmm… what about the Anthem… it looks interesting… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Back to sleep… but a few minutes later…

SC: Hey how about “It’s My Life” I remember it goes something like this …. Perfect for us!

RM waking up… ugh can this wait?

SC: it’s now or never! We might forget and we don’t live forever… and then we missed the perfect anthem!

RM: OK alright… added…

SC: Great!!! One more thing… let’s write a post about how I over-powered you and Sleep!

RM:

P.S. This post was written in collaboration with Rational and Subsconcious Mind

Some interesting stuff comes up when they work together… at the oddest times…
