1. You may be great at competing but are not so good at playing.

2. You care way too much about what others think.

3. You keep spending money on things you don't need and it hasn't brought you any closer to5B4 happiness.

4. The life you are living in your head looks nothing like the life the rest of us are watching you live.

5. You are bored/in a rut and your attempts to break your patterns are short-lived.

6. You are so tapped out that dealing with other people, even people you like, feels like a hassle. You suspect your priorities are messed up.

7. You feel like you would go crazy if you tried to just sit for a minute and watch ants...or a sunset...or kids playing...without multitasking.

8. You haven't laughed at yourself in a very long time.

9. You are not joyfully engaged in your life. You just aren't that much fun to be around but you're too busy to figure out what needs to change.

10. You get so caught up in "what if" that you end up not doing anything.

And 2 bonus reasons!

11. You keep asking for advice but what you really want is permission.

12. You want to feel delightfully spent and happy when you die!
