Why I'm Not Doing Enough

I no longer judge myself by the standard I set for myself back when I was a master student and it's not because my positive self-affirmations have curtained off that super productive part of my history. What I'm doing now is a marathon, longer than a marathon actually, longer than an ultra marathon even. It's my career, a race with no end inside at all. Ignoring that detail, the essence of why it was inappropriate for me to expect myself to work at the pace I set over the Christmas break while I was doing my masters is that it's equivalent to expecting myself to run a marathon at sprint pace. You're probably doing that too and it's ridiculous
