What if...
The reason your mind is telling you,
that you can't do something or do not want to do something
Is because,
you don't need to.
It's a defense mechanism that your mind is using, in order to protect you. Kind of like; you can't fail, if you never try. Your mind is trying to stick to basics; meaning; only what It needs to. Need, like life or death need. It may sound silly but, the reason you can't do the dishes; is because; you don't need to. Like a normal person; your answer will be yes; because, like a normal person; you know dirty dishes are...well,dirty; so yes, you need to clean them. But ask yourself this, do you actually need a clean dish right now? Are there paper plates?
Will you stop breathing, if you don't do the dishes...no. Then no, you don't need to do them. Because your mind is calling the shots and not you; you have to be sneaky, you have to look for the answer underneath the other answers. Remember, it's trying to protect you; so it's going to hide it from you.
The next time you feel that feeling, ask yourself; do I need to...life or death; do I need to?
