Life sucks because of "the Gap."

The "Gap" is the measurable difference between your thoughts and your actions; it's the difference between what you think and what you do. It is also known as the place where misery lives. Your Gap points out how in or out of sync your behavior is with your professed beliefs. A big Gap means they're out of sync, which sucks.

People who are unhappy generally have a lot of gaps. They don't speak the truth, they hide who they are, do things unconsciously, wait for something to happen "to" them, and search for meaning but don't take the steps necessary to achieve it.

Here are the symptoms of a Gap just begging to be closed:

• You don't have much love in your life, not even for yourself. 
• You don't hold yourself accountable.
• You have no faith.
• You feel uncertain and anxious.
• You have "your way" of doing things and that's it.
• You live in fear and lack.
• You are rigid and inflexible.
• You don't have good boundaries.
• You don't take care of yourself.
• You think everything and everyone is a pain in the neck.
