In this content, Rich Schefren reflects on feelings of guilt and shame related to productivity, emphasizing self-compassion and focusing on improving moment by moment rather than dwelling on past shortcomings.

I felt guilty about not getting certain work done and ashamed that I didn't do the work right. What's most important is to recognize that it's okay and that the worst thing that I can do is start beating myself up for stuff that has transpired. Right? It's about understanding that, look, I'm not always going to be at my best. And because I'm not always going to be at my best, I got to give myself some slack. And that just because I perform at a high level most of the time doesn't mean that there are going to be times where I'm not going to be as good as that. And to recognize that it's okay, right? All I can do is do better now. And where I can do better right now is right in front of me, like, the next 10 minutes. The next 10 minutes. So how do I live these next 10 minutes? Where it's more in line with who I was two weeks ago, who I like being, and not this person who has been maybe off track a little bit.
