Counting Sheep - Overcoming Fear v.4

[Ampersnd]

Day 42 / 210,

My conscious mind is screaming at my inner elephant (my unconscious), but the elephant doesn't want to walk to Mecca; it's enjoying the watering hole and just hanging out.

I'm actually somewhat content doing nothing at the moment; it's my higher brain that's panicking that I'm not making forward progress.

I think that a lot of my drive for success and fitness might be related to avoidance of pain rather than pure enjoyment; this means that addressing my unconscious fears translates to a loss of drive, given that I have fewer positive drivers and motivators.
