In the Thread: Wasted Time and "being taken out of the game"

Post Subject: Wasted Time and "being taken out of the game"Posted by Albert on: 5/11/2010

One of the things i find most difficult dealing with in my personal journey of creating my unique expression of play back in my room is spending hours and hours tuning/developing some aspect, usally in a specific occasion of time that i have had planed for weeks in advance (due to my schedule circumstances) only to come out the other side not having made the advances or success i had pictured in my mind, or worse, feeling i am going backwards.

Some times the feeling of loss is so great it takes me out from my game for weeks even months at a time untill i have recovered and have the "mind" to apply again. Romy's "wasted weekend" got me thinking - http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PageIndex=6&postID=13470#13465

Am i a crazy, deludid indivdule that needs help? or are there others who share this experience?

What do you do to empower yourselves in minimising the impact from such feelings of loss and frustration and the "taking out of the game"? This seemingly unavoidable devil in your journey of expression?

You see, if i could dissapear this "experience" of "wasted time" or mitigate it to a negligable level than i think a new level of results and satisfaction would descend. It's not that it is a problem, quite the contrary. I currently see it as unavoidable and therefore am chalanged to dissapear it.

Please enlighten me with any practices or structures you may use in dealing with this "unaviodable" devil.
