How Much Time Do You Spend "Inside" vs "Outside"

Hello Full Potential beings living their best life. How are you doing today?

 

I'm great. It's been a gorgeous morning and I've been on track with my routine since 7. Just got out of the river, showered and feeling marvelous. So let's dive right into it.

 

One of the things I have observed about myself over the last few days is that as I have a more optimized routine, timing each sequence with stop watch and all. I tend to DO A LOT that I have planned. And I as of late, I haven't planned a lot of downtime.

 

All this doing, made me feel like I was burning out yesterday. So I took a break from everything and realized how much I was being outwardly focused in trying to control and manage everything in my external environment.

 

Ironically I was doing this so that I could ALLOW myself the spaciousness to fully relax and not need to RESPOND to everything!

 

I have 'needed' to clear all my messages, my inbox, my appointments, and have my mind map up to date in order to feel like I'm on top of things. I also need to know where everything is and be fully informed about the world (social media / news) to really know what's going on 'out there'. Perhaps also looking for any threats or anything I need to be concerned about and respond to.

 

All this before giving myself permission to relax. But funny enough, when I have gone through being aware of everything in order to relax, I feel so over-stimulated that I can't relax! Could you relate?
