Time to "Take Time"
We had reached that point in life where nothing mattered except only the things that really do matter. Money was nothing. Material things were a turn-off. We craved the quiet life and the peace found in seclusion. We loved wide open spaces where our minds could roam with a fierce wild wind and our hearts could run free, taking flight, soaring to heights with out-of-this-world views. We valued those places that are off-the-map until you zoom in, so we were all-in when we set out for our vacation rental in Swan Valley, MT. We never dreamed that this trip to renovate our condo would be the beginning of a new kind of vacation, let alone the inception of the greatest system on earth. But this isn’t the first time in history that someone who wished to live a quiet and obscure life was put into a position demanding the opposite.
The First Luxxacation
If you are wondering how and when Luxxacation was conceived, the Convocation of Seven Eagles was the pre-cursor, the Encore of Luxxacation. Well, in short, COVID hit. So maybe you can give thanks to COVID. But we credit a higher power for this entire system, the All-Powerful who never ceases to take that which is bad or evil and turning it on it’s head, uses it for good in the end. We have always been truth seekers, but at that point more than ever before, we knew we had to take the time to learn, see, know and understand the truth of the times so that we could make an educated decision of what we should do, and then act on that goal. We didn’t know it, but we were taking the time necessary for the first design element of a Luxxacation. At first there was time for evening walks to the river, but in the end, there was no time to even walk, we felt like we had so much to do that we had to run everywhere.
Truth Increases Strength
Instead of wasting our time reading the latest headlines and subjecting ourselves to the endless hype, we researched psychology, science (to understand COVID), and hard-to-find history, etc. so that we could know and understand the situation better. Seeking the truth like this takes time and determination even just to find solid resources that are accurate. Eventually, all the pieces of what seemed to be a confusing puzzle, just fit together making a clear picture.
Decisions to Rise Above
We decided we were not only going to survive in a world where store shelves were empty and power outages loomed, we were going to thrive in this world! And the more the fear-inducing rumors went around, the more we heard the call (as if it came from the dark headlines themselves) “Stand up, take your Independence, be Strong and help others to be strong, and rise above.” And as the bad news of the world got worse . . . the more passionately the desire grew, calling us not just to be the strongest individuals we were capable of being, but to help others in a phenomenal way that the world would declare impossible… after all – most of the hellish headlines’ best value is realized in the solutions and collaborations that emerge in response to the problems being reported. So we rolled up our sleeves, and got to work. Sleepless nights of staying up and learning late into the night, thinking hard, daring to aim for the stars, then even that eventually wasn’t enough, as we realized the era of the Epithereal was already here. How on earth was there never a word for that which goes beyond the earthly boundaries of what is thought humanly possible, especially by the time that we were no longer limited by planet earth? As we were developing software for the purpose of empowering man to advance even more speedily to phenomenal heights of achievement, we knew it was definitely time for people to acknowledge the Epithereal as reality. Just as assuredly as we heard the fear and panic and distress, so we doubled and tripled our efforts to create a phenomenal tool to help humanity to independently strengthen themselves to be able to rise above.
The Power of the Mind and Pursuing Higher Education
The first thing we knew is that we had to be strong ourselves from the inside out. So, in striving for ultimate health and strength, I enrolled as a student at the International Sports Sciences Association to become a certified personal trainer, nutritionist and fitness coach. Victor enthusiastically volunteered to be my first “client” and went from bench pressing 100 something to 325 pounds in about six weeks. But we knew that strength isn’t just something that is declared or found in a weight room. We had to look at ourselves as complete humans who have a mind, body, and spirit. Strength is found when these three aspects of the person are united, and do not operate in different ways from each other as this causes inner turmoil and leaves the person likely to make bad choices.
Strengthening the Mind and the Body
Victor also enrolled as a student at Arizona State University with intentions to earn another masters degree this time in computer science via ASU’s master track program. He started off strong in his first class CS511, despite the fact that in all of his undergrad and graduate studies totaling 7 years he had never taken more than a 100 level CS course. As Victor would sit staring at the screen with his earbuds in, I was so proud of him for being able to understand all the math equations that looked extraterrestrial to me. He had quickly learned one programming language as an amateur and was passing his quiz’s well, but soon came upon an assignment that surprisingly was due… tomorrow… in a totally different computer language… and uh… it was one that Victor didn’t know. You can do it!! I tried to convince him, and he tried to quickly learn a new language, and turned in a late assignment, with some problems not understood. Long story short, with great effort, some late nights and stressful proctored exams, he got a C in the course.
Learning Changes the Brain and the Way You Approach Life
But something happened before his next course started. One night we were talking about different crowdfunding websites and I cracked a joke that we should just make our own crowdfunding website. We both kind of laughed like “when would we ever have time for that?” What I didn’t know is that Victor went off and started researching how to start a crowdfunding website. Later that night he casually mentioned to me that he had looked into it and it seemed fairly easy. That was all I needed, and the first acquisition was made: there was approval and agreement between the two of us, to begin a project that many other men would have responded to with a “never” or “forget it.” How was Victor so confident that he could easily do this despite his lack of education and experience in computers? It probably had something to do with my constantly telling him how knowledgeable and skilled he was with computers, and then the CS 511 course was pretty tough for him, making it look easy-peasy to create a crowdfunding website. Since the Torqueform initially was conceived in this way starting as a crowdfunding website, it is a logical question to ask, if it were not for Victor’s busting his butt to pass a 500 level CS course, would the Torqueform ever have been?
Time to Fly... to See the World from a New Perspective
The only education that Victor has had time to pursue since that moment has been only that which directly applies to the building of the first XSE system of the Torqueform and… flight lessons, which were a blend of stress and relaxation, intensity and soaring freedom, mental challenge and a heart’s desire. In addition to aviation, I also chased a young passion of mine and thoughtlessly enrolled in NYIAD’s interior design program one day on a whim. So I was turning in design projects in addition to the demands of development of the Torqueform. This ended up costing much sleep, sometimes absolutely no sleep, and for weeks after graduation, I suffered from weird affects like not being able to sleep at night due to auto-adrenaline releases, and a constant battling of trying to heal shredded nerves. I do not recommend pushing yourself this hard, this long.
The Power of Actions
So we know that understanding life from its basic building blocks of atoms and cells to hypersonic jet engines changes the way that you think and understand life, but let’s look at what new experiences and physical challenges do for the human. In our experience, a good workout opens the brain, not just to thinking more positively due to the endorphin release, but literally, new regions of the brain that may have been dormant reactivate, and taking the aggressive attitude of “I’m going to devour that weight room with a passion” creates a mental template for any challenge or test. In other words, any difficulty or suffering in life that may be encountered, is more easily approached as a “workout” which if done well, will result in a strength and endurance which otherwise you would be lacking.
Here we are going back into the power of the mind, because, in truth the mind cannot be separated from the body, nor even the spirit, as here we see how that a person choosing to have desire for “working out and weightlifting” and acting on that is ultimately going to have a completely different spirit as they approach and go about doing everything in life. If you can view your challenges (no matter what kind they are) ultimately as a potential for good, then your spirit is going to be one that will fly high with gratitude when it otherwise would be walking around, head hanging low, down in the dumps with self-pity, because you had a test mandated. A positive approach to difficulties culminates in a spirit of joy which impacts how well the body physically is able to perform in each moment and how resilient the body is to negative side-effects that otherwise would manifest in any particular situation.
Seeing how every aspect of the human is so intricately entwined, how much does engaging in a new activity redirect or re-frame a person’s approach and functioning in life? Well, it probably depends on the person and the activity, and, the individual’s anticipation of the projected effect. We chose to engage more definitely in a few activities during the first Luxxacation that we had previously dabbled in earlier, such as flight and target practice. Being so different, they probably were opening and activating very different regions of the brain. There is literally a new view, a much larger view that opens up from the pilot seat of a plane, and even some turbulence becomes merely a part of flight that eventually doesn’t phase but only adds to the dimension or even thrill of the ride. As our views and ideas broadened so significantly in such a short amount of time, we can’t help but think that the reality of the difference of viewpoints had something to do with our viewpoint seeming to climb higher, causing a dramatic broadening of our vision. Flight was a break from work for us, an all-encompassing release of desire to climb higher, to achieve what for thousands of years was thought impossible to man.
Strength in Numbers
We knew that independence, strength, and peace is accomplished first, on the individual level, but is maximally realized and pleasured in on the national and global level. Since the activities on the global level directly affect us at the personal level, we knew we needed to change the world for the better in an “impossible” way. So we had to look at what makes people click, and what of all craziness, tricks people into wasting their life’s freedom on entertainment and media that makes people feel like they are trapped or can’t live without something that often they don’t even like. Then we brainstormed how to turn all that on it’s head by employing AI and metaverse technology at the service of people in a way that takes into consideration our human tendencies and weakness, and caters to people with the intentional design using logic and positive thinking to encourage people to advancement.
As we saw the division and heard of the turmoil in our country and then around the world, we knew we were facing a dark outlook, but we knew that we needed to not only preserve our freedom, but use it to strengthen ourselves and ultimately to help the whole world in a beautiful and phenomenal way that would be considered humanly impossible if it were not for the fact that it will happen. The time had come for people to use their freedom to rise up above the darkness. So we created the Torqueform as the tool to empower people to do this.
Focused on Purpose
By escaping the noise and panic of the world we had an unobscured view and little to distract us from our focus. Yet every time we left that little vacation condo hidden and protected in-between the majestic Swan Mountain and Mission Mountain Ranges we would hear the distress, the fear, the worry and panic, and the longer we stayed away from it all, the worse it sounded when we heard and saw it. Don’t think we weren’t concerned, we just refused to allow our adrenaline and cortisol to release, as we knew two things: that was no good for us (we don’t want to age early) and that would only encourage the people around us to play in to the fear-mongering, and most of all, we had work to do. After all, when you have so much work to do that you have to regularly stay up until 2 & 3 am as we do, you learn how to reject distractions as we have to, for us our days of rest are over… forever. That’s not actually a joke, even if you’re laughing, and if we weren’t so aware of the immense responsibility of the Torqueform, we would be laughing too. And believe us we love to laugh!! Every evening as we break for dinner, before getting back to work, we laugh until we cry sometimes as one of the members of the heart of our team is talented and does stand up comedy routines almost every night, then we are energized for hours to come into the night, until we get out the chocolate around 11 pm for the last run into the early morning hours.
An Escape to "Nowhere"
The value of getting away in “Nowhere MT” and ditching the standard media “feed” of information, replacing it with research and education to achieve and strengthen, the value of this get-away is beyond any monetary equivalent, this was truly the most luxurious time we had ever experienced, because its worth was beyond that of any rare diamond. We got away from it all to seek something better, what we value most: Truth, independence, strength and peace and from the first Luxxacation, XSE and the Torqueform was developed.
Luxxacation
Luxxacation is an enlightened Luxury vacation as it is strategically designed to be the catalyst to achieving the ultimate or even epithereal, and for us, we wanted that benefit to extend to all of humanity. Now compare that to a vacation, or even a Luxury vacation, you go seeking pleasure and fulfillment from places and things around you, and maybe it makes you feel important, maybe you get your identity from these things, but how conflicting is that, to get your identity from those things outside of you? Do you really want to be identified as that person who had some kind of connection to this that and the other thing? What about you? Do you ever take the time to look at yourself, who you are (as an individual, not distracted by or reliant upon the internet, the next plane, the next hotel, etc)? Don’t these distractions always leave you feeling unfulfilled or even guilty, always chasing for more, and maybe gaining more guilt or other things? But are you a stronger person when you get home? Have you become more reliant on the system of electricity and food on the shelves? Would you even have a chance of surviving without your phone and gas in your car? Are you brave enough to face the truth… do you own your phone or does your phone own you? Independence starts within, and in order for one to truly be independent, they cannot be overrun or controlled against their will by anyone, or anything, including the technology in their life. Now it’s your turn, take your first Luxxacation, and begin the journey of your lifetime, just like we did.
The Signature Aroma of Luxxacation...
One evening after a rainstorm in May I kept getting the most beautifully intoxicating aroma encircling me. It was beyond fresh, and presented so powerfully yet calm, so manly yet floral that it was neither masculine nor feminine in flare, but it had an ethereal air that was hard to believe could be natural. I traced it out the back door and stepping out on the porch breathed in deeply, and quickly got Victor to share my pleasure. “How have we never noticed this after a rain here before?” We knew it instantly, one of the mistakes we had made during that Luxxacation is that we had focused too much on work. So this was the scent that we had heard others, especially children, mentioning as “that beautiful smell around here.” It was better than any bottled scent you could find at any price. As we soaked it in, deep into our lungs, and our minds as a memory, and into our souls, we again imprinted on our souls gratitude for the privilege of this secluded land in Swan Valley Montana. We knew we would miss our little vacation home, and looked forward to future days when we would return and hopefully take more time to just breathe. We’ll see, we’ll be back for sure, after all, the first Luxxacation is only the beginning of the journey of a lifetime. Someday, we will bottle this scent to the best of our ability, so that others may wear it as an ethereal reminder to always take time for what matters first.
