I face this often. It’s a constant effort to manage that inner taskmaster!

Absolutely! It’s like an internal drive that maybe a person has to be born with. Not sure where I got mine but it works for me. I think people should know the realities before going for it.

Those beliefs that are instilled in us that may be completely WRONG... But this rarely occurs to us.

One thing I like to do when I'm battling a negative thought spiral full of these reinforced Misbelief is depersonalize it. If I were, say a friend, my sister, my daughter... Would these thoughts be true? Acceptable? No? Helps to recognize the inconsistencies.

That’s such a powerful approach. It really does shift everything when you step outside the spiral and see it like you would for someone you love.

Hey, never worked remote, but it's nice to get this perspective about it; I feel a little bit more prepared! Keep it up

Absolutely! Are you thinking about going remote? I made a note explaining about working part time to see if it work for me and I also have an article talking about the struggle of applying. https://substack.com/@wordsandwalks/note/c-134059855?r=5oai3d&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action https://open.substack.com/pub/wordsandwalks/p/a-practical-approach-to-finding-your?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
