- 5
If nobody would ever know I did this, my energy for it would drop.
- 6
I push through the tiredness because stopping feels like failing.
- 7
I redo my work in my head at night.
- 8
When something succeeds, the relief is bigger than the joy.
- 9
I take on more than my portion so that I won't be judged.
