Have you ever noticed how much you can get done when avoiding something that you can't really face or don't want to do? It's fascinating to watch. Cleaning, making calls, surfing the web or staring mindlessly into the refrigerator all come easy when avoiding a particular task. Sometimes we have to give ourselves the room to squirm around. As we squirm we may actually be searching for the right word, sentence or skill that we need to face the task that seems so forbidding or draining.
