Thanks guys.
So a few more days in and learning to live without negativity as a driving force is coming along. It's interesting to approach problems such as laziness at work, unproductivity and social anxiety from this place of I'm enough.
A couple of things I've noted myself as I try to improve at work. Previously under the 'results needed now to make me not feel horrible about myself' I would go go big displays of excellence and burn out leading to very sporadic good results followed by just coasting. Now working from 'I am enough' and not really caring about needing to show immediate results, I'm developing what I call the 'operations' or 'infrastructure' for success. I remembered a quote when I was at the gym that 'success hails from the organisation of the non obvious', and I think that's right.
In my experience winning at something , like say something at work, in any sort of healthy lasting way came from factors such as just being well slept over the previous few days, being in a positive mood because I was going to the gym and socialising without drinking and eating well (not processed crap).
So yeah, I'm taking my eyes off immediate 'big' results and looking at wellbeing in general, a slow build up of positive habits. I'm about 16 days into daily meditation as well.

Your task is not to seek for Love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
