A very interesting article.
Being Damian is such a bore!
I grew up being a ruminator for sure, and it is still my default setting - if I do not stay aware of the mindset drifting in that direction.
I can also knock myself around the head,(ouch), and snap out of it, even heading off the 'default setting' entirely, before it has a chance to kick in.
For me personally- it's rarely , if ever, a productive use of time...
(whispers: good of you to make it..😂)
I respect how honest you are about your emotions and thoughts very much! You are so incredibly honest to yourself that you leave no space for excuses.
"Being Damian is such a bore!" only begs the question: "what can be done about it, then?" 😅 Although, there are other less painful ways to snap out of passive rumination 😛 For me, running and swimming work like a dream!
😏😂Leave a space for an excuse, and eventually it get's filled with a lie ...and then we get the screwed up world we live in right now...

So true!
