I’ll let Cal speak for himself, but I think we are both in agreement on the following: Spontaneous joy and being “lost” in our experience is not the primary goal. Growth and creative achievement are our primary goals. Growth requires accepting difficult challenges. At first the challenges produce anxiety. As we develop the skills we need to meet the challenges, we reduce our anxiety, and the process becomes easier. Once we get so good at something that it becomes easy, we should seek out new challenges, or choose a new weaknesses to correct (if we care about growth). Anxiety that’s not inherent to the challenge, such as anxiety that comes from being disorganized, overwhelmed, unfocused, and from lacking a clear sense of purpose is unnecessary. We should fix those things if we can (and we can).
