Yup- got to is outsourced Saturn. Creates procrastinating resistance. -to Get to, joyful enthusiastic celebration of the opportunity! We get to save democracy, heal soul of country in unifying stories etc

Or another good one I heard--I think from @Standupcoyote --was "I get to."
So you get desire and gratitude built right in. Come to think of it, I need to re-kickstart this practice myself.

I try to replace the word "should" with "i want" when it comes to everyday mundane tasks so it appears more doable. I want to do the dishes, I want to write, I want to scream into the abyss like the galactic banshee that I am, etc..

(53,410 posts)It enables you to learn and study and become an expert in something. It pushes you to work hard on your medical studies so you can be a doctor, or on any discipline so you can achieve mastery. It teaches you self discipline and determination and patience. It helps you mature and be accountable and responsible. It matures you until you attain wisdom.
Who doesnt want that?

After I learned how to use it instead of being used by it there was nothing I couldnt do that I set my mind to. But yeah, its good for mental discipline, learning, etc. but its not the same on the body. I have mobility problems and I simply cant do to much physically. But my feeling is if Saturn had to limit anything I certainly prefer it limit my body and to keep my brain working.
