Resistance And Barriers 07:
How Do Resistance Barriers Show Up?
How do resistance barriers tend to show up? What words do we use to describe them?
We explored this in the summary that precedes this in-depth discussion, but let's look at these items again.
Resistance barriers often show up as:
--Fatigue
--Discomfort
--Confusion, aimlessness, lack of motivation, paralysis, indecisiveness, impairment, incompetence, and/or dysfunctionality
--Irritability, offense, grumpiness, crankiness, frustration, disagreement, and/or disbelief
--Fear, terror, hysteria, panic, stress, anxiety, and/or nervousness
--An enormous variety of physical symptoms (most commonly headache, digestive issues, or muscle and joint pain)
--An insistent craving to engage in distractions (such as eating, watching television, and/or messing around on a cell phone)
--Distracting, clamorous, and possibly unsettling thoughts and memories When these challenging and uncomfortable barriers show up, you will often experience thoughts such as "this is too difficult", "this is too uncomfortable", "I can't handle this", "this is stupid", "this is wrong", or "fuck this shit".
In turn, all of this will often give rise to an impulse or compulsion to take a break, or to quit SkyVillage entirely.
