Meaning, I always feel I can push myself harder then I end up paying for it. The disparity creates internal tension and self-judgment of my own willpower.
I've had to make adjustments.
If I operate under someone else's ruleset then I can't keep up. Mental illness or not, if you're playing by someone else's rules you have no leverage and will always feel behind.
It's part of my ritual and one of the unique ways I'm surprisingly productive.
Yes, that limits opportunity but the spiritual ROI is tremendous.
Can I record 16 different personality intros or should I do one general intro that is more robust and expressive?
Can this meeting or call be an email or a text instead?
And the only way that works is if I allow myself to follow my own rules. The second I start to compare or I feel I need to push myself time-wise by being more "busy" then it gets ugly.
