For simpler, more somatic goals, something like the description of archery in Herrigel’s Zen and the art of archery is a good guide. Or the inner game of tennis. But for something like a large corporate team project, words become necessary.

Vibe Theory tells us that silencing your innate Sense of Vibe is a common failure mode https://t.co/h3E2rYZt5T

@TheAnnaGat Ya I’m constantly reminding folks that “because you want to” is totally a valid reason to do stuff and you can stop trying to justifying your actions so much

To achieve Perfect Vibe really just means doing exactly what feels great only and always, and shedding what doesn’t. Which requires the cultivation of your Vibe Sense https://t.co/FUZJqwTz1V

A big part of locking on to motivationally sustainable goals is learning to quit unsustainable ones. This means taking “not feeling it” feeling seriously. It’s almost always a necessary and sufficient reason to quit. Or phone it in at bare minimum if you can’t quit practically.
