Brain Refuses to Quiet

07/15/15

Since my post about emptying the brain, and my unpublished post that I called "Quieting the Brain", my brain has increased its cacophony of thoughts. And through this I discovered something. Writing a post with a specific purpose actually helps quiet the brain.

Again and again, I find my instincts to be wrong and my brain to be lying to me about what I should do. What I think I want to do will not increase my happiness and what I think I should do will not lead me to doing work.

It's still quite frustrating. But I suppose the answer is clearer: pick a thing to think about and start writing. Any action ideas that come along can be executed.

Let's try it out.
