By the way, when you do this, email takes you a tenth of the time. Because one of the things about email is you're like, I don't know, should I do this? Should I not do this? When you have spent the first part of the day simply listening to who you are and what's happening, there are all these things that are coming at you that you're burning all this energy trying to figure out.

But when you're coming from a different place, you're like, oh, of course I do that. Or no. No. And how many things come our way that our nose, but we're not at full power, strength, whatever you want to say, clarity. Yes. And so how many times you'll like sit on it and then you'll sort of... A lot.

And then you're like, you realize later you said yes because you don't want the person to think less of you. You want them to like you. And then you regret doing it when the time comes you have to do something. And then you're doing it. You're like, why is this? This is because last February I was tired on a Thursday and I said yes. So...

As I began to think through, oh, the more time I spend away from Screenland, when I do enter Screenland, I'm able to see Screenland for what it is. And that's not my path. I'm not to do that. And letting that person down is the only path forward. So let's just let them down. Right. And I also was struck... That it wasn't like we went a couple of weeks and then it was like, oh, good. I'm rested.

Let's go back at it. The interior is infinite. See, for many people, the universe, does it just go on forever? Does it just push on forever? Could you just travel if you had a ship and you could just go and go and go? So exteriors, we're comfortable with the idea that it's infinite. Or maybe there's a door that Jim Carrey goes through at the very end. But interiors are infinite.

So, and you'd find this fascinating, because you do speaking.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It got like December, January, on a random day in January, sitting there. I would remember some event the previous July where I was standing in line after doing an event and somebody plugged in and wanted something or took something or, you know, that feeling when people want a piece of you and I would become aware of it. Oh, that was actually a deeply draining, troubling interaction.

But in the moment, we got to keep going. Here we go. And I didn't spend time thinking about what that was. And that's in there. It's like we store. They talk about a pain body. We store all these experiences we have and we're carrying them around. No wonder a relationship can be hard to sustain. This person isn't even aware of the stuff they're carrying around.

And this other person has got a world of wound, desire, pain, hurt, loss. And then they're trying to connect when we often aren't even connected with what's happening inside of ourselves. So now I'm like four or five months in to this. You're still going every day. And now my day is completely backwards from what it used to be. I used to wake up. turn on the email, and then it's like, here we go.
