The Power of Holding Patterns
Water for my friends calls that a holding pattern activity./nWhen you're currently just waiting, you're circling the airport, something's about to happen./nThis is three years ago on a life-x episode, and he said, everyone's got a holding pattern activity./nWhat you want to do is try and make the activity that you use in your holding pattern, something that you would want you to do./nWhat he did was he bought a Kindle, and he put that on his desk, and he kept his phone outside of his desk./nIf he was in between calls, if he was going to do something, he would pick up his Kindle, or maybe he had some other stuff that he was playing about with on his desk./nMy point being that there's two levels to this, I suppose. One would be substitute what you're doing for something which is better, but another layer deeper than that would be substitute the chasing of wanting a something for realizing that you don't need to chase anything and just allow yourself to be.
