Frequently Asked Questions

I sat down to work, didn't do much, and now I'm leaving. Was that a waste of time?

No, you were "Remaining Near Without Crossing." Proximity is progress. In the Meaning Density Model™, "Entry Phases" close best when they aren't forced. By standing near the work and then leaving safely, you proved to your Safety system that you can "Enter and Exit" without being trapped or overwhelmed. This "Safe Exit" builds the trust needed for you to stay longer next time.

How do I make a "proximity session" feel like a success?

Validate the "Safe Departure." Say: "I stood near the work, and I am choosing to end the session now." This maintains your Status & Control. You are the "Manager of the Boundary." DojoWell suggests that every time you approach and leave safely, you are "Desensitizing" the avoidance loop. You are building "Structural Confidence" that will eventually make "Crossing into Action" feel like a minor, safe step.
