When are you most comfortable with yourself?

“The worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself." - Mark Twain

If you don't know, start asking yourself on a regular basis. When you find yourself thinking "Now. This feels like me" make a note of what you were doing.

It might have been singing at the top of your lungs in the car or shower, doing something for your kids, getting into a flow state at work, laughing with friends or all of these or something very different.

Make yourself into a research project.

Pay attention to the things that help you feel more comfortable with yourself and schedule them in so this is how you spend as much of your life as possible.

Think about the things that you resist, too. What makes you feel uncomfortable?

How can you shift things so you can minimise the time you spend doing things that go against your core?
