Frequently Asked Questions
Is my "worth" separate from how much I got done today?
Absolutely. In the Meaning Density Model™, worth is a structural constant, not a performance metric. Separating worth from action is the only way to restore internal safety. If your safety is tied to your output, you are always one "bad day" away from a crisis. By checking in on your worth as an inherent property of your existence, you deactivate the Status loops that keep you in a state of chronic exhaustion.
How do I remind myself that my worth isn't being "checked"?
Use "Zero-Metric Affirmations." Remind yourself: "In this space, there is no scale." Actively visualize the "checking mechanism" being unplugged. When the system stops checking, the body stops performing. This transition from "worth-as-work" to "worth-as-being" allows the nervous system to finally reach the deep, unconditioned rest that modern life so frequently denies. This is the foundation of structural resilience.
