yeah i can imagine that really getting in the way. i imagine it’s like one huge item and you have to decide for yourself what counts as being “done” on a given day and it never quite takes?

Yeah I feel very stuck. It actually feels very similar to how I felt stuck when I had a job, psychologically and in my body

sounds rough 😔 i was wondering if you could invent some metrics to arbitrarily judge “doneness” by on a given day but idk. word count sort of makes sense but sometimes i imagine you’re deleting or reshuffling or rewording things, hard to incorporate that. hmm

i feel like theres smth off about the idea of “doneness” i def know the feeling & have tried things like writing down manageable daily goals in the morning & feeling “done” when all checked off but i feel like there should be a way to feel “done” ALWAYS (but still DO stuff too)

big if true 🧐 i think i share this feeling but like haow tho

is it homework trauma 🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐

this is my working theory tbh. i think the problem with "done" is in reality it's not vague, it's specific, very rigid, can't BS or redefine it. if you try to argue what done is then you aren't done

"done" is gatekept by an IFS protector, or something
