Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[Shannon]

Mental gymnastics are a result of fear. I know exactly what you're talking about, but what you described is more of a symptom of fear. These complexities needed to be dismantled in past subs because fear was hard to address. Now with Shannon's new tech with frm I think if you hit fear directly these go away. Seems overly simplistic but think about it. What you wrote is basically procrastination and most experts will tell you procrastination is rooted in anxiety which is rooted in fear.

Obviously not Shannon here, but I thought I'd address your question. I'm 90% certain Shannon holds the same perspective with regards to fear

Probably. I wrote this very late at night and when I went to bed the thought about fear came to my mind, as another common theme lately has been exactly that where Shannon often answers questions along the lines of "...it all comes back to/originates from fear". However, I decided not to edit the comment and leave it as it is in case if it has any value/insight that could be of any help. But you are probably right...let´s see Shannon´s take on that.

It still all originates from fear.
