Hello, Hi, Greetings children of whatever you are children off. I'm stuck. Completely. Utterly stuck. This is my own fault. But I have an extreme case of Analysis Paralysis perhaps avoidance too. I'm not making much progress at all on anything and then as soon as I make some small progress, I go back into this loop. I need to cut it out. I know a lot of fancy systems, ideas about how things work etc but really i'm just overwhelmed and confused when it comes down to it. I really don't know what is going on and it's like I don't know how to do anything anymore. It used to be, this needs to be done, that needs to be done, boom! Done! Now it's should I do this? Or that? How should I do this? How should I do that? Maybe I can research it some more, maybe I need to figure it out. It's driving me insane. I'm totally in my head, anything that has gone well seems to be things that have just unfolded naturally and sometimes in spite of what i have been trying to overthing or do, because I just have run out of time or not had the choice. The trouble is with everything else I do have the choice, so I waste time here thinking about it all rather than doing. I just want to get it right, I want to go out there and kick some ass, but I don't really know how too, I don't know exactly what to do or how to do it but when I spent a long time figuring out what that is, I always come up with the same kinda answers, just perhaps worded differently. It's almost as if the answer is Just go out there and be awesome, but that seems to simple. |

If you secretly knew what the answer is (which apparently you do!!!) what would it be? I have no idea what you want to kick ass about - what is the worst that can happen if you DO, what is the worst that can happen if you DON'T? What is the best that can happen if you DO, what is the best that can happen if you DON'T? What one single thing could you do today, with the resources at your disposal right now, that takes less than 30 minutes that could make a difference? What is stopping you doing it?

There's no short answer to this, but you don't need to learn lots of stuff to get out of your head. You have to unlearn something new everything. It's all about unlearning, not learning. The simplest and hardest path in life is going from your head to your heart... I know, it took me years of world travelling to get there. |

Sparky: I found the answer in your signature: [Eat.Sleep.Rock.Repeat] What would Rock be if you applied it to life? What would it look to "rock at life"? It is that simple, it's just the practice that's hard. Plus your brain makes it all complicated. ps. I called you Sparky by mistake Smarky. I'm going to leave it though. |

If you want to kick some ass, like take the world back for yourself, that's the right thinking. If you want to kick someone's ass, what your saying doesn't seem to fit that. Whatever is wrong seems very important to you, so kicking its ass won't serve YOU well. You might just being trying to blow something up in your own face because you feel you deserve it, so kicking ass will make it blow up. (You don't deserve and it's fairly safe to say that destruction is never a good alternative.) Then, supposed you kicked someone's ass (mentally or physically), if you think you're stuck and confused now, you'll just be stuck and confused and ashamed - since I don't "hear" kick ass in your personality. You are blocking something. Do something else to unblock it. Look within yourself to unblock it. What feelings surround the block? As someone here mentioned, (I THINK in this thread, or another I just saw?), it could be some habit from your past that is recurring or some kind of feelings within you that you're trying to ignore. You're bottling up something, but it would be best FOR YOU if you don't find out what that is by kicking ass as a solution. This kind of thing often lifts from us in a day. You're asking now. I imagine you'll find a good and happy and healthy way forward very soon -- because you are asking! That is a good attitude. |
