I like being alone. Is there something wrong with me? >> No, there's nothing wrong with you. You need time alone. Let me just guess, you're a super sensitive person, you feel things very deeply, you pick up on other people's emotions. When you're feeling things that acutely, that's pretty intense. You need down time to sort of decompress from that. That may be why you need time by yourself where you're not being stimulated by other people's energy. By the way, I noticed a lot with a lot of stray cats who hang out at the studio here. And I watched them for hours and I learned stuff from them. One of the things is cats have incredibly fast reflexes and they have really keen senses. They'll hear a footstep from like three rooms away and they're ready to pounce. So, they're very very high strung. But another thing I notice about them is conversely, they sleep a lot. They just lounge and relax and lie there in the sun and sleep and doze and relax. And the reason is it's two sides of the same coin. That when your default setting when you're on is to be really on and ready to spring and ready to pounce, then you need times when you're completely able to just veg out. So, learn from the cats.
