    You need to ask yourself, why the rush? For me it was/is social anxiety. Hated the store. Hated shopping. Rush rush in out go go go.

    Once I worked on that, I found ways to make it much more tolerable. Now the five minutes in line are just five minutes I can play on my phone.

      That’s sort of a weird projection. It’s a chore. Obviously people would prefer to minimize time spent doing chores and maximize time spent doing fun things. It’s really not that complicated for most people. Not saying you can’t enjoy going to the store, but ultimately what you’re doing is still finding a way to make it less of a chore. Spoonful of sugar, and all that, ya know?

      Because I’d rather be doing anything else at home that I can’t do while in line at the grocery store.
