The graph that says it all
Why am I advocating me-time and play to anybody who desires to enjoy life more?
Because I know most people operate on default on the blue line in this graph, where the energy in motion system is moving in reverse: backwards.
Being able to stop yourself (me-time) and then actively directing yourself after the break to start up again in the desired direction: forward... allows you to experience live to the fullest, in being more resourceful, playful and open to inspiration that serves you and your community.

When you operate under the receptiveness threshold, you only see one option at the time. You are not open to anything more than the option that used to work... even if it doesn't right now ( really) anymore.
Fear strong doubts and anxiety are strong indicators that your being is telling you that you are moving somewhere on the blue line, shaping your life ( creating!) from a position of being ' not (good) enough'. The stronger the feelings, the more energy you are feeding it... but the overall result stays 'low' in quality. You may feel you are not really ' getting anywhere', despite trying hard.
Which... in a way, is a correct observation. You are investing far too much energy and getting low results from it.
You know, deep down, you can do better that this and enjoy live meanwhile a lot more too. That is..... if you change your direction.
Which has nothing (primarily) to do with changing things in your outward reality, but everything with changing the direction the energy flows in in your body-mind-soul system. To be in line with the natural direction all healthy and sustainable (personal) growth has: forward.
And... you are in controll of the direction your life takes! Nobody else give the ' engage' command in your system.
In my experience, what works best when you experience negative feeling, is stop yourself ( disconnect from all activities) and direct yourself to move on from here, by conscious active choice, to see Joy coming from this situation.
That is activating your system in first gear, rather than in reverse.
Setting yourself up to be on the red line.
Like you can't go to first gear while driving backward.... you have to come to a full stop, even for a couple of seconds and change gear actively.
The wonderment box is a great way to guide yourself easily through this proces whenever you catch yourself experienceing strong negative emotions.
Does it need repeating?
Probably.
The reverse function on your system has a function, like it has on a car. You probably don't want to rip that out of the palet of options you've got.
You simply don't use 'reverse' as the default setting if you'd like to travel safely, swiftly, adventuous and enjoy the ride too. Would you?
Just be kind with yourself if reverse seems to be your default setting.... it is at the moment the default setting in most people in the Western World and we have learned by example that this is the way life goes.
But is doesn't have to be that way. You've got choice. You are able to move forward too!
I'd say there is only one JOB in life that really matters: the Joy Of Being.
And.. when you endeavour to make the most of that JOB, you are automatically investing in moving your whole community forward too.
Leading by example.

Enjoy!
