There is no such thing as “normal”
And maybe this works for some people btw. If that is you, cool.
But the majority of people I know are not truly fulfilled by the lives they live, and if that is you, you must feel your emotions that want to come up about it.
Be bored more.
Be fully present with the boredom and all of the uncomfortable feelings associated with it.
You might be surprised how peaceful it is on the other side
This is the real secret of life - to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.
~ Alan Watts
Prioritize yourself first.
We’ve been conditioned to belief that this is selfish, when the exact opposite is true.
You can’t pour from an empty cup, hell you can’t even pour from a cup that’s 99% full.
Until you learn to take care of yourself you will never be able to fully show up for others.
To be free from convention is not to spurn it but not to be deceived by it.
It is to be able to use it as an instrument instead of being used by it.
~ Alan Watts
