But there's a cavio ... cavityot ... catch isn't there?
We don't live in a vacuum. I would offer that the key is to accomplish small things
that don't require any input from someone else.
For example, you've always wanted to write a book. Great! You sit down and after a few months have an actual manuscript of a real book. You feel great. You created something that many people will never do. So you have a friend/relative/coworker read it ...
And they pick it apart making you feel worse than before.
I could give a thousand other examples, but when other people get involved, they will drag you down. Set small, independent goals and then reward yourself. Don't let someone else get involved.
