Quotes

“It feels a lot better just to confront it and figure out a plan and make progress and make progress and make progress rather than to get all of that anxiety.” (15:32)

“If I’m just still kind of going over and over a case or a client that was really difficult or something, I have found that journaling really helps.” (22:27)

“When you set goals or you have things that you want to do, you are comparing where you are now to where you want to go. And so you often never feel like you have accomplished everything, so you can sort of feel negative about that. But if you look back at older journal entries or make sure to say ‘what have I done in the last 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, then you can realize all of the things you have accomplished.” (25:11)

“It’s nice to learn how to do new things and I like being able to do multiple different things at once, I think that is nice. It is nice to have multiple different types of outlets.” (30:17)
