48.2 ==> 39 Feeling stagnant in a small apartment.

[cavarose]

Hi community!I thank you in advance for your ideas and insights on my question. I live a big creative life in a super tiny nyc apartment. It has literally become an office & design studio with a bed in it. I’m launching a business and so often I feel like my mind spins and then my energy drains. So here’s my question:"What do I need to do to feel more happy, creative and productive in my apartment?" and Yi's answer, 48.2 to 39.

Do you have thoughts about the answer yourself?

My experience with the 48.2 (not exactly the 48.2>39 combination though) relates to the "shoots fishes" part and feeling like I was the one who was the easy prey and vulnerable to another's barbs as if they were "shooting fish in a barrel." Maybe you also are easy prey to elements of a personal environment not conducive to renewal being surrounded by so much needing your attention. I wonder also if you are like the car mechanic who has a bunch of broken cars all around his yard, or the computer junkie who has computer parts stacked to her ceiling. Is your office/design studio coming up short on design for your own personal space? Maybe not, and the space is just too small. Somehow, though, you are meant to be like 48.6, not 48.2, which also implies being accessible to others - maybe working on restoring connections along those lines as well.

You already answered yourself since what you say here

so often I feel like my mind spins and then my energy drains.

...is a perfect picture of 48.2. What happens in line 2 is wastage, frittering energy and resources away
because there are leaks in the situation. What is the leak ?

An example I have had this for money when I was not looking after what I had very well. I ought to have been looking at the well, the resource, and seeing how my money could be best held or utilized. For you perhaps it is your physical energy you aren't looking after, or maybe your working hours really don't make best use of your energy, or maybe you are using too much energy on trivial concerns at times ?

So a direct answer to your question is that to feel more happy and creative you need to notice where your energy/time/resources leak away and drain you and make sure it doesn't happen any more.
