Often, beautiful people downplay their own beauty. If you complain about how you don't like x feature, your beautiful friend might be like "I totally get it, I hate a feature about me too."
This is kinda annoying, and also how I feel about productive people. 1/

I often have a deep distrust that people who go "Oh yeah, I suck at being productive too" actually understand what my productivity issues are like. I am suspicious their perception of my difficulties are blinded by them trying to relate through their own, more minor hardships.

Some part of me wants to go "no you DON'T get it. you're acting like you get it but you have obviously accomplished big projects and so I don't trust you or your advice for me" even though I know this response is a little silly.

And in an even more silly move, I suspect sometimes I'm unproductive in an attempt to prove to more productive people that I'm actually worse than they are, that they weren't really listening to me. I want them to go "Wow, Aella, that sucks, I had no idea."

Top 0.1% on OF, organizing OF chat groups, analyzing OF data, 70k followers on Twitter, askhole, detailed blog posts...you seem fairly productive just judged on your output?

As a terminally distracted/lost in thought/unproductive person I really feel this sentiment.

I think productivity can maybe actually be measured on an exponential scale. So... while I may be 10x more productive than somebody else, there are DEFINITELY people who are 10x more productive than me. Huge range makes it harder to calibrate.

Probably also true for something like "anxiety" (can't relate, but just assuming...).
