in hindsight i did the peachy lotus with a lot of pent-up anger as in "you want a peach-lotus visual mr.universe?" ..fine! then deal with this! (my peach was literally a mammoth and my lotus had biceps the likes of which are attained only by steroid abuse)
Also in the back of my mind i had the nagging doubt that this was going to go "bust" as in i was going to tell my friend what a waste of time and mind power this was , as were all visual based techniques in my opinion.
All that i think successfully negated my expectation of result and outcome , consequently making the exercise a success
