Is there such a paradox of Freudian concept that one can be overwhelmed by things to do, several things, and predominantly use escapeism (an ego defense mechanism) to get away from them, by escaping through the very things which cause the anxeity in the first place?

Quote for a while "Ready are you? What know you of ready? ... This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless." -Yoda
