"Stretching the Rubber Band of the Self and Becoming One With the World"

There is an interpolable center where the pin of habit fixes one end of the rubber band of self.  That's what we call it.  And what we do at any moment is the other end of the rubber band, which is of course stretchy. So with little tug we tend to stay right by the pin of habit, where there is no movement and when events leave us more or less alone we can stay there at the center in a state of motionless apparent stasis doing as little as possible thinking our undistracted thoughts and doing the slovenly minimum.  But when events or will get tired of this squalid center we move out some distance and tug on the rubber band and approach our edge and that's where we meet the world and all that.

This is the gist of my new self-help series "Stretching the Rubber Band of the Self and Becoming One With the World", which I will promote with a lecture tour and follow with a corporate consultancy.  What do you think?

I'm actually not sure the rubber band is the self or if it's the habit.  Ditto the pin.  But I'm working on it.
