what if your procrastination is incredibly wise?
so many of us have been told that "gut feelings" and intuition aren't real
that the sensations in our bodies don't contain any wisdom or truth
but when you really pay attention, you start to see that's not the case at all
take a look at the pictures below, and imagine you're there
do you feel something in your body when you see them? maybe a sinking feeling, a sense of worry, or the need to change them?
those physical reactions are happening all the time, whether we're conscious of them or not
your body is constantly scanning your environment, using your past experiences to anticipate what might happen next
the same thing happens when you meet a new person
sometimes you just get a good or bad vibe, without knowing why
that's your intuition putting together subtle cues, and warning you about potential outcomes
so how does this relate to motivating yourself?
sometimes, you just don't feel like working
there's a sense, if you tune into it, that something about doing this project would be bad, or wrong
it may seem like this is arbitrary, something to overcome, but it's not
it's something to tune into, and understand
maybe, it's an old trauma or worry - something to let go of
but often, there's wisdom in this resistance - a desire to not harm yourself, a sense that there's something you need to do first
the more you practice tuning into these sensations, the more information you can access
your body is incredibly wise, if you know how to listen to it
