What are you going to do when you have finished this?

As long as you live, you will 'do' things, your life will be a series of events, whether you experience it through your inner Self or through your personality. You will meet people (or not), you will do choirs, work, use your computer etc. Seen from the perspective of your personality, you will approach each of these things as a kind of separate goal in itself, as activities which, as soon as they come into your awareness, seem to have the goal to be 'finished'.

For example when you do the laundry you are likely to mentally review the standards you have adopted for this, and how well you are meeting these. There is an unwritten idea that it is right only when you have finished doing the laundry. Once you have, you may spend some thoughts on reviewing how well or fast or neat you have done this (eventually combined with your personality ideas about the interruptions, like the phone, children who were fighting and such), and which standards you have met and how well you have met them, like the laundry has to be folded immediately after it comes out of the dryer, you have met someone's request etc. And where necessary, you may add your justification of your own failures.

These are a lot of thoughts, which are all necessary to create an experience of 'as great/nice as possible', and this feeling will last only as long as you repeat these thoughts. After that, there is the 'great nothingness' again, and your personality is likely to avoid having to experience this through mentally reliving aforementioned thoughts or likewise ones, or focus on tasks ahead as a kind of preview. And at the end of the day you act surprised when you feel vaguely dissatisfied and are mentally tired of all this thinking, and find it has not really contributed to creating a great experience.

In order to get rid of this unpleasant feeling, you are likely to do more things, try even harder to make it work through your personality mechanisms, with all kinds of goals to experience. The only thing that is really happening, is that you push away the experience of your inner Self more and more from your everyday life through introducing endless personality thoughts which usurp the mental space you call your attention.

Seen from the perspective of your inner Self, you will do things as well for the rest of your life. However, you do not need them in themselves in order to experience inner Peace and a very comforting and joyful experience, since it is already there, regardless of what it is that is happening around you. So you can fold the laundry and be your Self. And then cook dinner and all the time be your Self. It is no longer the experience itself which is needed to provide you with limited 'pleasant' experiences. And it is much more quiet in your head!

When you have finished what you are doing, there will always be a next thing you will do, and the funny part is, that you are not really fully aware of this. Your personality thinks in small parts, and usually no further than the short-term goal of 'finished' and what this will bring him. Your inner Self knows that it is about a continuous experience, so 'now' is as good as 'later'.

To your personality it seems that when you were to function inspired by your inner Self, there somehow would no longer be any action in your life. This is not true, and somewhere within you know that, only your personally cannot conceive of a life without his own input. And he will never be able to, since both aspects are irreconcilable. New experiences with your inner Self will remind you how things really are and how attractive and logical they are to you. The things you focus on and the way you deal with them no doubt will change in time, and also what they offer you. However, that is a logical shift which also happens when you do nót become more aware of your inner Self, only then with a different (personality-oriented) outcome.
