Draw of the day: what I need more of

I'm doing Wyntercraft's 30-Day Tarot Challenge, and today's draw question was "What do I need more of in my life?"
I drew Major Arcana IX, The Hermit, represented in the Fairy Tale deck by a Czechoslovakian tale called "The Wood Fairy." The hermit represents quiet, introspection, and generally taking some time out away from the world to collect yourself and do some inner work. I don't like it. I'll admit I have lately spent a lot of time complaining about how heart-attack-inducingly busy I am, but that's just because it's convention week, and it's all stuff I want to do, so I certainly don't want to drop any of it to spend any more time alone in my head with my thoughts (and anyway, I feel like I *do* still spend a lot of time in my head with my thoughts, even with all the other stuff!).
It is possible--in fact, quite likely--that the card indicates that what I need to do is more actual soul-searching and reevaluating of my priorities, not just going around and around in my own head picking up whatever random thoughts I roll into to think more about like a katamari of neuroticism. Also maybe I should start meditating again. *looks at list of Things I Think I Should Do More Of* Or maybe not.
