    Thanks very much for this. For myself, the idea of being perfect is, I believe, the result of wanting to control outcomes (basically what you talked about) because uncertain outcomes expose the core belief that "if that happens I can't cope", and so on.
    I often remind myself of the famous Leonard Cohen line "there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in." It's the moments of imperfection and unexpected outcomes that shine the light on the path, "Oh, I'm here now."
    Sometimes, that works.
    Anyway , good video, thanks again!

    Loved this video ! Especially the reminder about how to flip .
    One thing all my art classes have taught me , and you can apply this to many aspects in your life, is that perfection is boring and that artists find something that is imperfect more interesting . I tend to agree.
    Keep up the good work - I look forward to life lessons every week🙂

    @TreasureHuntingNana Před 3 lety +1

    I over think to find a solution... Then I get revengeful... but I don't always act on the revenge. But because I haven't found a solution as I can not change how others think about me, I then over think WHY are they making me hurt. But I am choosing to be hurt. Then I think, what is it about this situation that I am choosing to be hurt by. Then it all goes back to what I already know.... My childhood. I am an 8 yr old girl hurting and crying out, inside a 50 yr old woman. I often say ... "I" am ok..... BUT "SHE" being my inner child, isn't. I fight for her even though I know this is self destructive. I do have faith in your videos and only came across them last night. I look forward to learning a lot more.... I also love STOP IT... great advice.

    I believe I am not going to get everything done before I die. I believe I know and visualise a better, easier way for people. In my life I am the manager of family and our life, no support so I am overthinking and overdoing. I believe my chronic fatigue and adrenal burnout has created this choice. How do I know that I am either side of the pendulum as I don't feel emotions? How do you go to your shen in conversation when your brain goes first?

    I understand what you're saying and I make a point everyday to be conscious of my as I call my roller Dex of Todo list.
    Where I seem to have issues is my ability to live in the moment and the future at the same time. Breaking this is what I struggle with.
    When younger I didn't have a issue if using these abilities at same time. Now at 55 my older self can't move and do like I did. And I find myself saying I can't do this. and right after that though. Push it comes.
    At this point now I believe that there is a higher power at play placing things forcing me to slow down or unable to finish my lists. My question am I unconsciously the one placing things that I trip over, smack, slip, etc. In the last week I broke my baby toe which way slowed me.
    3 weeks before I had covid putting me in my mind behind. I feel overwhelmed now because I'm behind 1 month. Of things that must be done .I want to add that I'm both left and right-handed I can write forward and backward at the same time it's truly like my brain has two sides and the both relay to me at same time . I always see both side of any issues with myself more with others showing Negitive emotions I find myself helping or suggesting look from another point.
    Thank you

    @gcossum1 Před 4 lety +2

    Hi guys loved the video. When Alex was talking about juggling the balls I immediately thought of someone in my own family.
    They have a NEED to control everything right down to the granular level. They NEED to be seen to be in control even though in reality they are not.
    Would I be correct in saying that the NEED to be in control plays into overthinking? In their mind if they drop one ball it's a catastrophe, as long as they stay on the carousel of misery juggling they don't have to face the reality that they are not in control at all.

    • @WuWeiWisdom
      @WuWeiWisdom  Před 4 lety

      Hi Grahame, yes the core belief that you can't cope (or won't be able to cope) leads to the need for control, which leads to constantly strategizing and overthinking...

  • @SEEKERofTRUUTH
    @SEEKERofTRUUTH Před 4 lety

    The quietest people tend to have the loudest thinking mind.. :(
    So because I had to part ways from many of my old friends due to my own personal awakening, realization and connection.. I am left with myself.. by being less social has made me a lot more introverted and thus my mind has become a lot more active and talkative.. like a version of Morgan Freeman where its my voice just narrating everything and everything..

    • @WuWeiWisdom
      @WuWeiWisdom  Před 4 lety

      Self-talk is not a 'bad' thing - it is the quality, authenticity and truthfulness of the thoughts and conversations we have with ourselves that matter. Speaking to our higher-self or 'Shen' can be very positive and helpful in guiding our life. Have you watched our series on Shen yet? (see Life Lessons 37, 38 & 39) 🙏

  • @jude999
    @jude999 Před 4 lety +1
