I alluded to this in one of my other messages. People drop some interests to "focus" and then they have this empty spot in their life. I think the varied interests could all satisfy the same need or they could satisfy different needs. The different needs is where dropping one can lead to an overall uneasiness - dis-ease?

The concept in NLP of future pacing is interesting. It takes account of how actions will affect you long term. Specifically how making large changes or following certain paths will play out. Are there other needs that will pop-up demanding a feeding down the road a piece.
