(no subject)
Not sure about this... complicated decision of the internet, associating yourself with a person you were a long time ago. Still this felt the more appropriate of the two and so here I am.
Am I struggling now? Frame it as a question without context. I was held back from advancing onto the final phase of Dev; some context, and now I am struggling to find a stride and get oriented as everyone around me confronts different problems than I am.
My biggest fear is slipping into depression, having my energy dissipate to nothingness. I think I am at a heightened risk now that I don't have all those micro-collisions with other people to infuse me with energy. The way to deal with that I think is to really tighten down on the feedback loops in what I am learning (conserving as much energy as possible) as well as pacing myself and setting reasonable expectations which will never the less prevent me from slacking.
I like this idea of having a journal check-in though. Maybe time-boxed to 20 minutes, first thing in the morning and after lunch, plus an optional at the end of the day. Also, I like the idea of working on bigger projects *hesitation*, but I don't want this to be an escape or a time sink.
That should be good for the moment.
