What makes me feel 'trapped' is that I don't really know what I want to do with this life. My brain tends to overflow with all kinds of ideas but when I zoom in on a concept and think about it more deeply the whole idea seems hilarious because sometimes it takes me all day to decide whether or not I should take a shower, or if I decide to take a shower I might end up doing something completely different because I got distracted somewhere along the way and forget about the whole shower. Which, in conclusion, makes me feel like I don't have a purpose. However, after nearly a year of fulltime non-doing/inner-work I'm quite eager to DO something that makes my heart/mind go whoohoo.
While our experiences may differ greatly, I see a great deal of similarities between us. I also used to have a tendency to agonize over the most efficient solution to the seemingly most mundane tasks and I am still currently easily distracted. I also felt like I didn't have a purpose and was desperately seeking it.
