An important but gentle pushback against things like this (tracking how much time you "have left"): if stuff like this isn't helping you, it isn't worth the reminder either. For some people the scarcity mindset is a motivating factor, for others it's a paralyzing one and for the latter I would encourage to consider this sort of conversation utterly meaningless and therefore wholly dismissable, not even worth the time in clicks.
- Xeoncross 3y agoAlso consider those of us that need to be paralyzed long enough to consider what we are scare of so we can have space to address it and make changes. It's okay to be paralyzed, knocked-down, or fail at times. Sometimes busyness is a blind that can be removed no other way.
- m3kw9 3y agoYep, it probably turns out to be paralyzing and counterintuitive
- sanderjd 3y agoYep thanks. I'm solidly in this group of people for whom this kind of thing is counterproductive. To the extent that I honestly can't even imagine the mindset of people who find this motivating. Making me depressed and anxious about how I'm spending my time is the door into the doom loop for me, not the door out of it.
