Trying to churn through a big personal decision. Fed up with my sensible side tending to win the arguments of the internal dialog. It's had its way for too long, it thinks it owns the place.

Thing is, I do sensible too easily, but it has drifted into mind numbing. If it was self evident, it wouldnt be a real decision. I'll work it out eventually! · 2 years ago

There's a reason your sensible side tends to win. It's because it makes sense. · 2 years ago

I know how you feel! Most of the time it's a good idea to be sensible, but after a while it seems to steal the joy from life. One thing one of my friends does is he schedules it: gives himself at least one day per month for 'whatever he wants to do.'

Me? I just spent a whole year indulging the 'it would be cool to do XYZ' and it's been super enjoyable, but at the end of the year I'm in exactly the same place that I was at the start. That said, I picked up dancing as a hobby and have no plans to stop.

Hilariously, my Meyer-Briggs personality profile shifted a lot over this experience. From INTJ to ENFJ. I'm curious to see if it goes back as I settle into something more similar to my previous life. · 2 years ago
