@violet I have a tendency to be mean to myself and drag myself to the next task. This is, of course, detrimental in the long term.
But when manage to be kind to myself, to take myself by the hand and do something I know is good for me, it works quite well.

@mees I think I'm similar. It doesn't necessarily prevent the thing from being draining, but it helps soften it a little.

@violet it also means doing the thing is allowed to be an achievement, instead of something 'I shouldn't have had trouble with anyway.'
And it is an achievement. Because it was hard to do.
