Three Cycles of Emperor: I Shed a Layer That Was Hiding Who I Truly Am

Three cycles in. I shed a layer of myself that was obstructing who I truly am. Congruence has improved even though people don't consciously notice — they respond to it. Enhanced wit, better eye contact, raised perceived status from both men and women. I was initially disappointed by the lack of dramatic productivity gains. Later I realized the sub was executing as designed: power and dominance became natural self-expression rather than something forced. NSE is doing something — quiet, continuous, like a burst shot running at 100x speed.
