Episode notes
Chronic Suffering Blocks Action
- Chronic background suffering from inaction is tolerable but accumulates and blocks progress.
- We tolerate this pain because it doesn't threaten immediate survival and seems less scary than fearing action.
Use Visualization to Motivate
- Turn chronic background suffering into acute pain by vividly imagining the negative consequences five years from now.
- Also visualize the positive gains if you take action to balance motivation and start moving forward.
Forgiveness Fuels Fresh Start
- Forgive yourself for past lack of progress to accept your current status.
- Use forgiveness to release guilt and focus on starting without tolerating another day of inaction.
