That is probably right. There is even a name for this in Barbara Sher's Refuse To Choose book. Actually most of the types of scanners (the name for people like me) have this trait. But "giving up" isn't the right phrase here, it's Duration/Reward. She uses the example of a honeybee. Bees go around to different flowers, they spend different amounts of time in each one, sometimes 5 seconds, sometimes 5 minutes. But they always stay ONLY until they have gotten the reward. Or in human terms, we only stay until we had enough, learned what we wanted to learn, got bored, satisfied our curiosity, whatever. It's natural to learn and grow and be curious so I'm glad I'm like this rather than not giving a crap about anything and drowning myself in video games.

Do you believe that there's a bigger part of yourself, rockchick?
One that loves you unconditionally.. as is rooting you on..? Do you believe that.. or is that fantasy to you?

Well of course I do, I know there is a bigger part of all of us. I have been trying to get in touch with that bigger part of me, I've even started writing notes to my subconsious and my ego
I just feel some type of blockage there, like I'm not interpreting the messages right or something is in the way of me getting them.

Only your EGO would ever think "try to do them all" "growing list of things that overwhelm"

I'm still getting used to the ego being something completely different than what I have believed for the last 37 years
I've never met a person who didnt get overwhelmed when they had more things to do than they thought they had time for. I'm working on this though.

I probably going to trade you 1 reply per 1 workout post Because I don't think these reply's are helping sometimes..

Replies always help because they get me to think and see things differently. Even if I appear to be protesting, it's still forcing me to think and dig deep for my answers and see how other people perceive me that I can't see myself. If I didn't get something out of this, I wouldn't have this strong urge to keep coming back. My higher self wants this!!
