It's inevitable. It's life. And so perhaps if we can build in some buffer room in our days and in our plans for those inevitable surprises, distractions and interruptions, perhaps that would be what can lessen that tension.

productivity guilt that we experience because we can see, oh, okay, so I didn't get the thing done that I thought that I needed to do today because of this emergency and interruption. And that's life. And so I'm not solely to blame here. I think there's a fine line in terms of, obviously, there's these things that we want to accomplish in our lives to have a sense of meaning or satisfaction.

And in many senses, we do need to find that motivation within ourselves but i also think that we need to acknowledge when perhaps there's things outside of our control that you know knock over our plans for the day

Well, I do have a suspicion that perhaps people aren't getting as much done as they might portray they are on social media. I think that it's so easy to curate our lives. And even when we look on social media, we know that it's curated. We know that we're looking at a highlight reel intellectually, but it can be difficult to untangle that feeling of comparison where we fall short.

So I think that there's two things at play here. And the first is that there is a level of curation happening and that can mean that we spiral in comparison and we see our real life and our incomplete to-do list. But really it might be that other people also have things that are incomplete. It's inevitable as well where no one is perfect. But the other side of this is that

perhaps there are some people that have a greater capacity for productivity and perhaps they do get more done. Perhaps they have higher energy or more attention or more resources. Maybe they've got more assistance in getting things done.

Maybe they've got a home gym and they're able to kind of get their 30-minute run in early in the morning because they don't have to sort of commute to a gym or something like that. There's all these different tweaks in our lives. And I think that when we're comparing, we have to remember that we're comparing apples and oranges because we're all individuals with variances.
