Why Is It hard for some people to allow themselves to Plex?
- We get stuck in routines. It’s easier to default to what we always do.
- We feel pressure to be productive. If it doesn’t have a clear goal, it can feel like a waste of time.
- We wait for the “right” conditions. But Plex doesn’t require perfect timing—it thrives on spontaneity.
- We fear looking silly. Plex invites playfulness, and that can feel vulnerable.
How to allow yourself to plex
- Reframe it as an experiment. There’s no failure, just discovery.
- Start ridiculously small. One tiny Plexful step can open the door to more.
- Make it a non-negotiable. If you wait until “you have time,” it won’t happen.
- Remove the pressure. You don’t have to document it, justify it, or be good at it.
- Think of it as giving a gift to your future self. A moment of Plex today can lead to unexpected opportunities tomorrow.
- Remind yourself: You deserve this. Your mind, creativity, and spirit thrive when you allow space for Plex.
So… what’s one small, no-pressure Plex you can allow yourself today?
Give yourself permission to Plex.
Giving yourself permission turns abstract desire into a concrete commitment. When you physically write it down and sign it, you’re making a conscious decision to Plex without guilt or hesitation. It’s a simple yet effective way to silence self-doubt and open up to the joy of spontaneity and growth. *It may seem silly, but this small act is plexful too 🙂
