I'm at a key decision-point for #writers: The point where you recognize something won't get finished in time for a call, and have to decide if you're going to spend the next few days scrambling, stressing, and *still* failing, or...
Accept the setback, shelve the work until you can complete it properly, and give yourself a workload of easier wins over the next few days instead.
Silly pragmatic adulthood.
Going for a walk! Then targeting 4 more manageable weekend tasks instead.
@MLClark when you’re trying to live a freelance or creative life, regular self-evaluation is crucial to not losing your mind. I’ve been doing it over 25 years.
@Jacklhasa 100%. Love the "reevaluate" component, too. Giving ourselves license to make other decisions, and *normalizing* that reevaluation process in our workflow, is genuine long term selfcare. 💪🏻 May it always serve you well!
