I had this convo with a friend recently — you must try to avoid looping on whether you're "good enough" or "deserve" x, y, z. There's no authority that can answer that. There's no divine stone tablet for self-grading. This is a perniciously egotistic way to drive yourself insane.https://twitter.com/webdevMason/status/1220862873942937602 …

You also may make better choices, because "this is a thing I'd like to do/make" is a better reason for doing stuff than "this will provide evidence that I am good enough." I've met many people stuck doing variations of the latter, feeling unmotivated, tired & still insufficient

Feeling good about yourself often *follows* the doing stuff, and it's really upsetting to see people put the cart in front of the horse and then blame themselves for traveling at very low speeds

That's it isn't it, all the time you spend driving yourself crazy about it you could be spending doing the thing. I wonder why we think this question is so important in the moment.

What about instead having a value system framework that you can judge yourself against ? Recreate a positive feedback loop of, how did I honor my value system and therefore am worthy of self love. It helps w self esteem and also helps with being a better person
