Lately my mind has been acting as an inward facing mirror, which in turn has led to an almost constant state of pensive introspection. This has bottlenecked my productivity and has inhibited my ability to "move forward" in meaningful ways.

Last night I imagined turning this mirror around, and allowing it to be an outward facing mirror. This simple mental exercise had an immediate impact on my mood, and I felt "light" again.

This is a path I am familiar with. The world is larger than even my largest thoughts about myself or my flaws.
