this perspective is true to some degree (your life does get less stressful when you get more done!) but I haven’t found it to be that useful context: I spent a lot of time in my 20s investing in systems in my life to close open loops. I was quite successful at it. I still felt drained & anxious the real lever is how you feel about the open loops, and why they matter so much it’s impossible to close all your loops! open loops are part of being human! so what is making that intolerable, for you? why is your body tensing and clenching at leaving things undone? maybe it’s less about the loops themselves and more about your relationship to them… and maybe that’s the place we can focus on, to make it easier & more joyful to both close the loops and keep them open… to not live in fear of open loops, in an endless game of whack-a-mole, but to be free to act in ways you find beautiful, from moment to moment
