A short self-check

Am I Throwing Too Hard?

◆

Ten questions about effort, outcome and honor. Answer for the last month or so, quickly and honestly — the first answer is usually the true one.

  1. 1

    I keep working on something long after it is good enough.

  2. 2

    When I imagine finishing, I mostly picture how it will look to others.

  3. 3

    A small correction or criticism stays with me for hours.

  4. 4

    I feel responsible for how things turn out, not only for what I do.

  5. 5

    If nobody would ever know I did this, my energy for it would drop.

  6. 6

    I push through the tiredness because stopping feels like failing.

  7. 7

    I redo my work in my head at night.

  8. 8

    When something succeeds, the relief is bigger than the joy.

  9. 9

    I take on more than my portion so that I won't be judged.

  10. 10

    It is hard for me to make the next small move without seeing the whole outcome first.
