Painful questions

Some question to think off when you are bored with life coming from Sasha Chapin.

I like these questions since they really allow me to question myself on the things I am doing now, and whether I am doing the right thing.

  1. Am I taking personal responsibility for the world, or am I waiting for someone else to tell me what to do?

  2. Does this action bring me closer to or further from my idealized self?

  3. If no one could see me doing this, would I still do it?

  4. If everyone could see me doing this, would I still do it?

  5. If I were choosing for an uncountable number of 'me's, would I choose this?

  6. Why would an insecure, status-seeking, fearful, vengeful person do this thing I'm doing?

  7. To what extent do I try to distract myself from direct exposure to the contents of my own mind?

  8. Am I avoiding information that I know might change my behavior?

  9. When engaging with new subject matter, am I motivated by a desire to understand it, or to have an opinion about it?
