“..I’m not doing enough or working hard enough to succeed..”
“..I should do more…”
“..feel like I never do enough..”
“..feel a bit bad about myself..”
“..you should at least be working…”
Holy crap! 😛 Sounds like you’ve got a really vicious demon inside you telling you some really nasty things about yourself and making up a lot of B.S. I’ve been where you are now and I know a lot of people who believed their parents, authority figures, and the media who tie our sense of self-worth to external accomplishments and unrealistic benchmarks of what it means to be successful and happy.
This book is not an exorcism, but it’s the closest thing that I’ve found to help kill that demon. Try it out: http://www.amazon.com/Soul-without-Shame-Liberating-Yourself/dp/157062383X
Believe me, there is freedom from this vicious cycle. 🙂
