Almost right. I would say that telling yourself you're behind, and telling yourself you're right where you're intended to be, are both flavors of the same thing, which is telling yourself a story about the truth. You don't need the story, you only need the bare minimalist truth itself. You did what you did. You didn't do what you didn't do. Now pick another thing and do it. When it's done you can tackle the next one.
