Thank you Jeff! And thank you for your message before that too. Funnily enough I've been trying to do something like that, looking at it from the outside to try to avoid the pitfalls. That idea about self-responsibility is definitely part of it for me, and I need to root it in self love, for otherwise I feel that I am just an angry boss with myself that demands to keep going forward no matter what. Sometimes that self-responsibility is to take it easy with oneself, I don't want to face burn out or something worse.
I think I need something like that about focusing on the feelings as well, something that focuses on not removing value from what I do too despite that I don't like it. It might not be the best, but doing bad work in a bad mood is worse that not doing any work at all... Hmm. I do need to think this through for a bit more but I feel I have a tentative affirmation now that can help me get up from the mud, clean myself and start walking again. Wish me luck! Transformation ain't easy, huh.
