Listen "Analysis Paralysis: Waiting to Exhale, and Why You Shouldn't [UNPACKED] "
Episode Synopsis
When I created 8 Minute Idea, I always knew there would be topics that would take more than 8 minutes to present. Even before the first episode was written, I decided to label these episodes [UNPACKED] as I have here for the first time for this special Inaguration Day Edition of the show.
One of my teachers used to tell me that interrupting the everyday routine of "doing things" was like damming a river, a process which brings all the "debris of experience" that we all carry invisibly under the water of our conciousness to rise to the surface where it can be "scooped off" and scrutinised.
In my experience, achieving this sometimes means occasionally not actually doing anything for some time: hours or even a whole day to allow natural processes in the mind to be completed. This episode is about that opportunity and why it's so important.
