Don’t hide unwanted things in the fog
If you don’t clearly understand what it is you want, you can avoid the pain of never having gotten it. Deep down we’ll take the ambiguity of uncertainty as a shield to protect us from having to face truth. and risk being rejected as we are.
yet it is only by clearly understanding what it is we want that we can work on it. Only then do we even have the opportunity to possibly get it right.
Hiding things in the fog is knowing what is Directionally correct yet never taking the step towards it that you need.
It is playing yourself for the fool because you don’t have the courage to move.
I experienced this in my breakdown in Florida before Ohio, realizing what the next step was but knowing I was too much of a coward to do it.
When you hide things in the fog, you affirm “What you don’t know will destroy you”
Hiding in the fog is banking that our ignorance is bliss, we fear the pain of knowing will overwhelm us. You beat this by The cost of yes.
