Courageous is the soul, who adventures into time and space to learn of their divinity. For while they cannot lose, they can think they have, and the loss will seem intolerable. And while they cannot fail, they can think they have, and the pain will seem unbearable. And while they cannot ever be less than they truly are – powerful, eternal, and loved – they can think they are, and all hope will seem lost. And therein lies their test. A test of perceptions: of what to focus on, of what to believe in, in spite of appearances. Tallyho, The Universe

Be As You Are
Be as you are
And so see who you are
and how you are
Let go for a moment or two
of what you ought to do
and discover what you do do
Risk a little if you can
Feel your own feelings
Say your own words
Think your own thoughts
Be your own self
Discover
Let the plan for you
grow from within you
by Fritz Perls

Thus instead of suffering we suffer about suffering, and suffer about suffering about suffering. Alan Watts

The harmonious functioning model is a breakthrough for understanding the basic causes of happiness and motivation. Your higher brain’s fundamental “motive” is to learn, process information, and perform complex tasks. It seeks an optimal level of challenge (match between task complexity/difficulty and your abilities). When there is too much challenge, your higher brain produces overarousal emotions like anxiety and confusion. When there is too little challenge, your higher brain produces underarousal emotions like depression and apathy. Only during optimal challenge do you get “in the zone” of harmonious functioning and produce maximum interest, happiness, learning, and performance.
Inner conflict also causes overarousal, while inner harmony leads to happiness. One reason why happiness is such a worthy top-goal of life is that your brain regularly measures how well your life is going in every life area. Your brain uses emotions as feedback (and your most powerful natural motivator) to get your conscious mind to fix whatever is wrong (including concerns for other people and the future).
When your mind has inner harmony, it creates peak learning, peak performance, and peak happiness. Over time, harmonious functioning increases love of the activity, self-esteem, and health. (Chapter 7)
