I completely agree about focusing on what things you actually accomplished. I recently heard a simple method for this - before going to sleep, write down 3 things you did that day. At first I resisted, not much into journaling or writing right now, but I did do it last night and I look at it to remind myself. I will try my best to do that each night.
