Frequently Asked Questions

I feel like I should be "moving" or "making progress" right now. Am I falling behind?

"This Moment Isn’t Asking for Movement." In the Meaning Density Model™, we often mistake "Stillness" for "Stagnation." But not every moment is an "Action Loop." Some moments are for "Settling" or "Observation." By recognizing that stillness is appropriate right now, you silence the Status system’s "Urgency Alarm." You aren't falling behind; you are "Synchronizing" with the natural pace of the current moment.

How do I know if a moment is for "movement" or "stillness"?

Listen to your "Internal Friction." If movement feels "Forced" and "High-Density," it’s likely a moment for stillness. If movement feels "Natural" and "Low-Friction," it’s a moment for action. DojoWell teaches that "Stillness is the foundation of High-Quality Movement." By allowing yourself to be still when the moment isn't asking for more, you ensure that your next "Movement" will be truly meaningful and sustainable.
