Discovering more and more of MLS as I use it.
One thing I realized is that many of the things I wanted to study were being studied out of fear. For example, I only wanted to learn programming because the career path pays quite a bit and it was "safe." I was getting frustrated with MLS as the first few days I used MLS I was getting into flow states and conquering much of my work load then it just stopped.
Today I decided to learn something I was genuinely interested in and managed to do a good 2 hours of work quite easily. I barely even took breaks until I finished a significant portion of my work. I was completely entranced and feeling really good with the work I was doing and having fun with the challenge.
So that tells me what the clearing has been doing these past few days.
My mind feels fairly cluttered with all there is to study and why I'm studying it exactly. I'm seeing this not as a challenge but as an opportunity to find what genuinely interests me.
