The Subconscious is better at making Tulpae?

[MonarKay]

Basically, I have an idea, and I'd like to hear what you guys think- that the subconscious is actually better at making Tulpae then the conscious mind.

 

I thought of this due to how the creation of my Tulpa, Kay, has turned out.

See, I set out with a specific primary goal- I wanted someone who would help me be a more productive person. I've always had trouble accomplishing things, whether it be important things, like work, to casual things, like personal projects. So I wanted someone who would help motivate me to get off my ass.

 

My initial strategy for this was to make a personality that was very sensible and thought out- someone who knew how important it was to not slack off, and knew the consequences of not doing things. But as we got further and further along, I noticed that Kay was being the exact opposite. She was rash and spontaneous, with a taste for adventure. And I realized- that's exactly what I needed. I already did enough thinking of my own accord. I needed a do-er, someone who didn't hem and haw about things, and just DID them.

 

So Kay turned out to be perfect, by going against everything I did to try and make her that way. My subconscious did a better job then my conscious would have done alone, and I find this interesting.

I also find it encouraging- even if you are doing a bad job, it will still work out, because the Tulpa creation process doesn't really pay attention to your means, it pays attention to your goals.

[[ "The subconscious" is better at everything. :V ]]

That would explain why i suddenly found myself with four cute girls instead of one. I approve of this theory, your fate is possibly already decided before you even start the process.

I'm gonna go ahead and say that I don't really buy into this. Other than my subconscious apparently coming up with the idea for Elise's form and binding my anima to Luna, it hasn't done much of anything to my tulpae.

Would it sound more sane to say everyone subconscious knows what they really want?

Well maybe you're just better at making tulpa then us common folk. Your subconcious didn't have to help because you were already doing such a great job.

 

All I know is, I tried to make Kay one way, but she turned out entirely different, in the best possible way.

Since I didn't conciously make the changes, I'm going to assume my subconcious did it.

lol @ the use of "the subconscious" in this thread.

 

It will suit your short-termed desires, which, in most cases, mostly are for the benefit of the long-termed desires as well; the conscious, well-planned desires.

Well, Oguigi came out profoundly different then what I originally expected. when I started I wanted an imposed pony that I can talk to and would help me out. hardcore brony dream.

 

things turned out to be much more complex than I first predicted to say the least.

 

and I also thought things will be Fun! turns out I was wrong; its very stressful.

The subconscious is a thing and it tends to be an asshole and against tuppers.

 

But what if. Hey. What if. Hey, listen, what if the changes to your tupper... were made by the tupper??? Yeah woah I know pretty deep bro.

I think it happened to me as well a bit and I'm satisfied with the results.

I think that is why subc can choose the personality much better for your mindfolk. If it's true, then it's much more desirable to not work on personality at all.

Not true, my subc has nothing against my mindfolk.

Maybe, but I find the thought of a mindfolk changing it's personality a lot pretty improbable although the tulpa could have easily changed it's form, voice etc. by itself.
