I am often told that I'm entirely too hard on myself. Like I said yesterday, my bar is perpetually set very high.
Pair that with depression, and it's a lovely cocktail of roller coaster self loathing.
I expect a lot, so when I put the effort in and succeed, I feel like the biggest badass ever.
Since I know what I'm capable of, and refuse to accept the limitations of my own humanity, this usually is not the case and I fail miserably.
This happens a lot lately, since I'm trying to will myself into wolverine-like healing powers for my knee.
It's something I'm trying to work on as a whole, since driving myself crazy is neither helpful nor achieving any of the greatness I aspire to.
Hopefully I'll be able to ascertain my new limits and find different ways to surpass myself, thus ending this horrific display of humility gone wrong, and potentially making the world a better place.
