I haven't read any of the comments besides yours yet. I'm a pretty cynical person - I am drawn to skepticism in a discussion, hence wanting to reply to your comment. I went through the exercise in the link and found it really interesting. I wasn't particularly interested in the final output, or in making my own practise out of it. But it was valuable finding some nuance in 'how I feel'. I chose 'good' but when I split it into 3 different terms it didn't look so good, so I took a short break, which is something I should do more often.

So I guess for me there were two crucial factors. The process was more important than the output, and I gained value from it without considering I'll ever do it again.
