We can't stop doing everything and we can't stop doing things that bother us all the time, at least for now or until we slowly change our lives to accommodate "us" rather than everyone else, but we can start making small choices about the not-so-important tasks, thereby creating a focus and a momentum - a gap in unwanted activity - with the intention to move our lives "backwards" - back to their origin, when we were children and our attention was absorbed by playing, learning and understanding the world around us.

If we don't give to ourselves from the pool of life that we were individually granted and we spend all our energy giving it to others because of contracts we signed and arrangements we made, we can only feel some vague pleasure, which we call well-being and security. But either way, it is all an elaborate excuse so as not to become the bigger version of ourselves.
