  1. #MissKitty is back in the saddle today. She knows what #Guru tells for herself at long last. That taking even one day away from #Spiritual focus can lead to significant dissolution of that focus. Having seen it, it's unacceptable. #Self-evaluation is essential for progress. No #honesty, no progress.

  2. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    Solitude is the climax of the negative virtues. When we go to bed after a solitary day we can tell ourselves that we have not been unkind nor dishonest nor untruthful; and the negative virtues are agreeable to that dangerous faculty we call the conscience. That they should ever be admitted for a part of virtue is what I cannot explain. I do not care two straws for all the nots.

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1880-01/02?), “Reflections and Remarks on Human Life,” § 4.6 “Solitude and Society”

  5. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    It is the business of this life to make excuses for others, but none for ourselves. We should be clearly persuaded of our own misconduct, for that is the part of knowledge in which we are most apt to be defective.

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1880-01/02?), “Reflections and Remarks on Human Life,” § 1.1 “Justice and Justification”

  8. A quotation from Euripides

    MEDEA:                     Let no one think of me
    As humble or weak or passive; let them understand
    I am of a different kind: dangerous to my enemies,
    Loyal to my friends. To such a life glory belongs.
     
    [ΜΉΔΕΙΑ:μηδείς με φαύλην κἀσθενῆ νομιζέτω
    μηδ᾽ ἡσυχαίαν, ἀλλὰ θατέρου τρόπου,
    βαρεῖαν ἐχθροῖς καὶ φίλοισιν εὐμενῆ:
    810τῶν γὰρ τοιούτων εὐκλεέστατος βίος.]

    Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
    Medea [Μήδεια], l. 807ff (431 BC) [tr. Vellacott (1963)]

  11. A quotation from Shakespeare

    RICHARD: And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover
       To entertain these fair well-spoken days,
       I am determinèd to prove a villain
       And hate the idle pleasures of these days.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Richard III, Act 1, sc. 1, l. 28ff (1.1.28-31) (1592)

  14. A quotation from Montaigne

    There is another kind of “glory”: conceiving too high an opinion of our worth. This is an undeserved feeling by which we value ourselves, and that makes us think ourselves different than we are, just as the passion of love lends beauties and graces to the object it embraces and makes those smitten by it — with their judgment blurred and altered — find what they love different, and more perfect, than it is.
     
    [Il y a une autre sorte de gloire, qui est une trop bonne opinion, que nous concevons de nostre valeur. C’est un’affection inconsideree, dequoy nous nous cherissons, qui nous represente à nous mesmes, autres que nous ne sommes. Comme la passion amoureuse preste des beautez, & des graces, au subject qu’elle embrasse ; & fait que ceux qui en sont espris, trouvent d’un jugement trouble & alteré, ce qu’ils aiment, autre & plus parfait qu’il n’est.]

    Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
    Essays, Book 2, ch. 17 (2.17), “Of Presumption [De la Presomption]” (1578) [tr. Atkinson/Sices (2012)]

  18. A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

    Do not forget you are like the rest of the world, and faulty yourself in a great many instances: that though you may forbear from some errors, it is not for want of inclination, and that nothing but cowardice, vanity, or some such base principle hinders you from sinning.
     
    [καὶ αὐτὸς πολλὰ ἁμαρτάνεις καὶ ἄλλος τοιοῦτος εἷ: καὶ εἴ τινων δὲ ἁμαρτημάτων ἀπέχῃ, ἀλλὰ τήν γε ἕξιν ἐποιστικὴν ἔχεις, εἰ καὶ διὰ δειλίαν ἢ δοξοκοπίαν ἢ τοιοῦτό τι κακὸν ἀπέχῃ τῶν ὁμοίων ἁμαρτημάτων.]

  21. Anxious Perfectionism 7/10
    EC perfectionism is different—rooted in harsh self-judgment, fear of criticism, and difficulty feeling satisfied even after success. A deeply vulnerable pattern. 🧩

  24. A quotation from Bertrand Russell

    The man who underestimates himself is perpetually being surprised by success, whereas the man who overestimates himself is just as often surprised by failure. The former kind of surprise is pleasant, the latter unpleasant. It is therefore wise to be not unduly conceited, though also not too modest to be enterprising.

    Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher

  36. #NaomiKlein’s #Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World is a polymathic work that serves up new #political heuristics with the firepower we’ve come to expect from the coiner of “disaster #capitalism.” A Dante-spiral through our circles of cultural hell, it’s also a memoir of #demoralization, #selfevaluation, and persistent hope.

  40. Every year where I work, we fill out #SelfEvaluation forms rating ourselves in all the standard areas from below expectations to exceeds and whatever. I generally try to rate myself as meets, though I do like to think that I exceed in some areas.

    It's not like our raises depend on these things. (They don't, because we don't really get them.... Sigh) This year I decided to look through more of the "auto type" fill out options - and if I really were honest with myself, I have always rated myself too low.

    Evidently my manager(s) think the same as well. Had the "go over the performance eval" meeting today, and while - again - it has no current bearing on pay, it's a strong assist should we ever actually get merit pay..... Because I'm an #ExceedsExpectations at my job!

    There is nothing more satisfying than being told by your manager that they can definitely tell when you're out, and miss having you there.

    #today was a good day.

  44. Really struggling with the work self evaluation this time around. Honestly, my mental health hasn't been the greatest. I've kept on top of work ok, but I'm swinging wildly between "I suck, I've made a million small mistakes" and "I did what I was supposed to do and it was decent work and I didn't cry and honestly I feel like that exceeds expectations these days leave me alone." Somehow, neither of these feel appropriate to put down for HR.

    Self evaluation really feels like a particular torture when your mental health is not the most stable. It's hard for this not to send me into a spiral of self loathing that I'm pretty sure isn't accurate, but I don't know what actually IS accurate, and of course I'm motivated to make my work sound as good as possible while not being embarrassingly unrealistic, and I don't understand what HR finds valuable about this exercise.

  48. Just finished my #work #SelfEvaluation just under the wire. One thing I did this year that REALLY helped is put together a Google doc where I dropped in a few brief notes every month about key things I had done, and included times people said particularly nice things about my work. When I reviewed the document, I had completely forgotten a bunch of the things I'd done earlier in the year, so it was hugely helpful. Thanks, past me! Definitely doing that again for 2023.
