Introduction

Our goal, with this essay, is sharing.

Sharing what?

My “root experiment.”

In one way or another, this is a sequel to “The Root Experiment — Part 1” and “The Root Experiment — Part 2.”

The Root Experiment

The root experiment is very simple.

You take an idea that you really, really love.

Right now, it might be “investing.”

Or, “inner conversations.”

And, then, you make a list.

A list where you write five to twenty sentences that start with “I really love…”

You clarify a wealth of things that you appreciate about your current experience with the idea.

Just as an example, “I really love that I am feeling so good about this idea!”

On top of that, “I really love that I have received ideas that make me understand just how infinite this concept is!”

You can even add bits about other ideas to ground it, such as “I really love the simpler ideas that came to me which really, really ground this, which was just like in 2021, and I feel so great!”

And so on and so forth.

If you write this list, then you will receive something.

You will receive a deep wealth of passion regarding this particular idea.

Depending on what you write, you may also receive other ideas, new concepts, a bigger vision of the concept.

And so on and so forth, endlessly and infinitely; ad infinitum.

Conducting The Root Experiment

You can find an example of the root experiment right below:

  1. I really love that my passion for this amazing idea flew through me like a magical waterfall!
  2. I really love that I received some lovely, smaller, that grounded this idea and made me happy!
  3. I really love that I got some super-transcendent ideas for this that were so mind-blowing and cool!
  4. I really love that I was able to produce some notes and other ideas on this lovely, lovely concept.
  5. I really love that I enjoyed this passion for several days and really had such an absolute blast with this!

And so on and so forth.

A Fruitful Experiment

Earlier this month — November of 2024 — I conducted my root experiment.

The experience was lovely.

A wealth of lovely ideas came to me.

On top of that, a number of nice moments were enjoyed, each one relating to this idea.

You can use this root experiment for any idea you wish to enjoy/explore further.

Or, alternatively, you can use this experiment to command new ideas that enrich your life.

And so on and so forth, endlessly and infinitely; ad infinitum.

Conclusion

Just to wrap this up, thank you for reading!

Best wishes and have a lovely day!
