Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- Every night I close the day by grading myself on what I got done and what I dropped, and it leaves a sour taste
- My practice lives in a little window and the rest of the day
- While I’m working I keep checking how it’s going and whether it’ll be good enough, and that constant monitoring pulls me out of actually doing it
- I notice myself grabbing credit and dodging blame on reflex, and it bothers me
- Every task I start with "what do I get out of this," and when it goes sideways my ego takes it personally
