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.

Maybe it's you who are failing to understand their difficulties? Maybe it's your perception that's warped, not theirs?

yeah i mean maybe, but it doesn't 'feel' that way for productivity issues, mostly due to ppl with self-proclaimed productivity issues doing things like scheduling meetings with me and being super organized in them and cheerfully assuming i can do xyz tasks before next meeting

Exactly... it doesn't 'feel' that way. This is entrely subjective but presented as at least somewhat objective. This whole thread feels very perceptually egocentric. Not trying to bash you, but it's worth reflecting on.
