Desperate Feeling you need to take action.

Revised: January 22, 2008

Does anyone else get the desperate feeling that you need to take action? Apparently it is one of the core ingredients that form misery this time of year according to the BBC at least. I had always thought it a normal reflex action to feel the need to take action against something, however I suppose when your desperately trying to fix something - regardless of whether that thing actually needs fixing or not then it can become a problem. I haven’t until now thought if my own behavior had come under this heading but looking back it seems that at some points it does, but then it would be classified normal considering how many other people out there appear to be doing the same thing. It is sad however to think it normal, especially when we feel the need to take action where no action is required. Life has a way of sorting things out, those of a religious standing would put this down to whomever they worship keeping an eye and for the rest of you it’s simply a result of a continual natural process which leans towards being balanced.

The next time you feel a desperate need to take action, first think to yourself does it need to be done and secondly what would happen if you didn’t interfere. I can think back upon several occasions when if I hadn’t worked into a frenzy and desperately taken action things would have worked them selves out for the positive anyway.
