Well, exhaustion actually is a status symbol in our culture. And that’s the problem— we’re working and training ourselves to death. From a young age, we are bombarded with the message that to be successful, we must work overtime, sacrifice our health, friends, even happiness and sanity to achieve what we want. Being chronically exhausted is not the key to success. Its a race toward disease and dysfunction. Our cultural pathology can be summed up pretty easily: too much yang, not enough yin; too much doing, not enough being; too much work, not enough play; too masculine, not enough feminine.
