    Absolutely. The more stressed out I get the less effective I am. When I'm doing an art piece for the creative fun of it I do O.K., but as soon as I need something to exhibit all I see are flaws. That's when I second guess myself and my internal editor has a hay day.

    Live is ok. We get it. *g*

    I would not describe the grind of daily life as chasing my tail but running on a hamster wheel.

    It has become a habit and by now, I had completely forgotten what on earth was the reason for getting on that wheel in the first place?

    Yes, but eventually I get dizzy, fall down, and realize I've never had a tail to begin with.

    (Don't strain your head trying to find a deeper meaning in what I just said. There isn't any.)

    Yeah, a couple of times, it's mostly because sometimes we don't know where we're supposed to go and what we're supposed to do, we end up stepping on the wrong blocks and get sent back to where we started. But that's okay, we still learn something, we learn what steps are wrong, we can start anew.

    Yes, I feel this way everyday. There's too many problems in my life. However I trust in God and know that it will get better one day. If I didn't believe this I'd be a lost sole.

    Yes, in fact lately I've been feeling like that recently almost everyday, there seems to be no purpose in life in what I do.

  • 1 decade ago

    It can feel like that, no matter if you are the working man, or a scientist trying to make the chemicals work together.

    all the time; try losing weight for 7 years and never getting anywhere. all i can say is: wait it out. it should eventually pass! do something to boost your karma points, it may help you feel better!
