How To Detangle Productivity And Your Self-Worth

 “You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”– Buddha

Being the eldest, I was born with a responsibility to be more mature, productive, and understanding, as I believed it would decide my self-worth. With passing years, even when I was in high school, university, and ultimately in professional life, I had a “firm faith” that my self-worth is only there if I am productive. Due to this, I had developed such a workaholic routine.

I find it extremely hard to “let go of work and take time for myself.” In fact, if I do take time, I feel like I am procrastinating and guilty of skipping work”.

Now that the weekend is just around the corner and I feel no shy admitting that I am scared to “Relax.” I know I am exhausted and want to rest or watch my favourite show. But, I can’t stop the continuous internal nagging: You should be using this time to work! This is a wonderful time to prove yourself; you can rest later. You always wanted to prove yourself and your time is here- Look, the weekend is here, and you can complete all your pending work.

So are you really going to Just Relax and Waste Your Precious Time?

You know, the answer to this is very clear. However, at times this internal conflict gets so strong that not only does it make me feel guilty but also triggers anxiety. This anxiety then keeps bothering me for days. I keep telling myself countless times that I am not enthusiastic enough, it gets self-resentful, and I disturb both my productivity and self-worth.

A quality product has been made using high-quality materials, with an eye to durability and longevity, so that it will last for years while still being of use. The quality of the product is what sets it apart from its competitors.  A poor-quality product may be cheap in price but expensive in upkeep; even if you save money on purchase costs now, you’ll end up spending more money on repairs or replacements down the line. It’s always best to invest in something displaying a high quality, and this is why. 1. The Durability Aspect Products made with high-quality materials last longer. Durability is the ability of any product to perform its primary function for an extended period under ordinary wear and tear without showing signs of damage or breakage.  A good example would be shoes. If you buy cheap shoes that are not well-made from poor materials, they’re more likely to wear out quickly, break down and need repair
