homunculus-argument

I genuinely hate how "lock in and grind like hell" is not a method that works for me. Like if I could do that, I 100% would, but I know from experience that it's not an efficient long-term tactic for me, I'll just grind myself down and get exhausted and burnt out, and that I genuinely cannot do my best work unless I'm mentally and physically well-rested. I know it's true but I still hate knowing how much it sounds like a lazy excuse to dilly-dally and do fuck-all.

I'm doing my work slowly, at a leisurely pace where I'm still on schedule but not feeling pressured about it. I know that this is the best way for me to work. I know that my boyfriend knows this or at least trusts my judgement about it even if he doesn't agree with that. But good fucking grief I hate sitting down like "today I will do work prep beforehand so I'll have everything already 50% done by the day of the deadline and can easily just do the other 50% on the day of", and the next time he looks over, I'm drawing owl feet.

don't forget the feeling of being judged for working like this and being told in a condescending that they just "don't understand it" and that you make your peers worried because you don't have this ability

like im SORRY i am trying my best. i swear. but if you make me sit down and write out a 20 page paper, not only will you get sloppy writing, you're also getting a Very Burned Out Me.

There's surprisingly little overlap beteen work methods that look productive and efficient, and work methods that are productive and efficient.

french is all well and good to learn once you've got the basics of grammar and verbs down etc., however. there is one final hurdle and it wants to kill you. numbers.
