To help understand “overwhelmed flake” I have to define work. I hope to change some peoples perspectives. I used to have regret about my flaky nature. The benefits one reaps from this work is TRANSFORMING! Sending Love and Light, Saquina Akanni, The Prosperity Doctor Level 4 is Non-struggle you are engaged in each activity with passion and you learn to do what is necessary to win and Level 5 is Mastery where you remained Centered at all times with “What is” engaged in creating from infinite possibilities in the Pursuit of Excellence – being the best that you can be. Level 3 is “Having the Struggle” where you learn to respond with little conflict within yourself. Level 2 is Being “In the Struggle” with more options to be able to react and perform, but you are still seeking happiness and want to return your comfort zone. It is a process to go thru the 4 level and it does take practice. Learning the Art of Self-Discipline can transform any behavior. Discipline implies someone else calls you to be accountable and responsible.

This behavior leave one a victim in conflict with Body-Mind – always in conflict with self because you seek comfort. The Flake is stuck in Level 1 of behavior Being Struggle – on autopilot – an addiction of compulsive behavior be it procrastination, shopping or drugs and alcohol not being able to do what is necessary, because they lack self-control. What’s your definition of a flake? How does your own flakery feel when you’re deep in it? Does it make you uncomfortable? Tell me in the comments below. So I guess that’s a good enough ending for now, because I am fresh out. So I will keep my commitment to write a post a day this month because that’s what The Complete Flake is about: Getting Things Done for a friggin’ change. You can do two posts in the morning to catch up.īut we know where that slippery slope ends up, don’t we? In the RIVER OF BROKEN DREAMS, PEOPLE. Part of my brain is saying, Finish it tomorrow, nobody cares. My usual habit is to avoid that ache-y feeling at all costs. It’s now nearly 2 a.m., so I’m tired to boot. My stomach is tight, my arms ache, and I just want it to be over. It’s a physical feeling, actually, and I don’t like it. I still have no idea how I’m going to end this post, and that has me feeling uncomfortable. Yep, perfectionism is probably another flake trait. Writing for me is a huge chore because of this pesky little perfectionism problem. I didn’t have a clear idea of what I wanted to say, just something vague about “What is a flake?” And being a bit OCD about every single comma, I knew I would go back and edit, edit, edit till the cows come home. Why? Well, in my case, there’s a little kid inside me, stomping her feet and whining, “I don’t want to!” And because I’m an adult now, and my mother isn’t around to tell me I HAVE to, I usually don’t do whatever it is I don’t want to do, until I have no choice.īut I think there’s another reason too: fear. Like me, most flakes are world-class procrastinators. And of course, she is ALWAYS falling behind. Like the Red Queen in Through the Looking Glass, she is running as fast as she can just to keep from falling behind. I’m no expert, but to me a flake is disorganized, often overstressed by work and/or family commitments, exhausted, and trying desperately to hide her shameful secret. It’s not as though we choose to piss off everyone around us - well, unless we’re also passive aggressive, but I don’t think that’s what’s going on with most of us. She’s such a flake.īut it doesn’t say WHY flakes are unreliable. Mary said she would do the research for our project, but it’s been a week and she hasn’t done a thing. An unreliable person someone who agrees to do something, but never follows through.ġ. Here’s how The Urban Dictionary defines a flake: This is completely flaky behavior, and therefore a perfect example for us to ponder. It is now three minutes to midnight, so I am technically keeping the commitment I made at Be Awesome Online to blog every day this month - oops, now it’s 12:03 - but let’s face it.

I’ve been procrastinating ALL DAY on finishing this post. Um, uh - well, I told you I won’t lie, so the truth is I wrote those words hours ago. Before I get carried away with the ins and outs of complete flakery, let’s be clear about what a flake IS, exactly.
