The Dervish and the Mermaid

WCML 087: “If you’re not going to devote yourself to it 24/7/365, why bother?” - The Dervish and the Mermaid


Listen Later


I got rid of Facebook’s banality,

And started to face my mortality.

With nothing to numb,

I’ve got to find some-

thing that counts as my core speciality.
Kyeli discusses her mid-life crisis with Pace, and faces some hardcore limiting beliefs.

* mid-life crisis
* ticking off all the tickyboxes on the culturally sanctioned to-do list
* the war on boredom is the introspection killer
* rephrasing dabbler -> multipotentialite
* the culture of achievement
* The One True Calling Myth
* The Work by Byron Katie
* retraining “If you’re not going to devote yourself to it 24/7/365, why bother?” into “It is okay to do this just because I like it.”
