Does trying overachieve lead to more self disappointment?

by PC Nena X on September 17, 2009

suggestions_for_success Seems easy enough right? Try to overachieve in hopes that you achieve more than you would if you underachieve….or does it? To me lately it seems that by overachieving I am setting myself up for even more failure and disappointment when I realize I have run myself ragged with trying to be the best me I can be and attain the most success with my current situation.

More often then not I find myself drained, fatigued, and wanting to give up. I book myself for more commitments/tasks then I can comfortably handle and the end result…especially lately….seems to be that of disappointment in myself.

Does anyone out there know why when it rains it pours? Why does it seem like Murphy’s law comes into play daily around here these days. Failure is not something I am good at dealing with, more so in fact then a normal human being. I take things to the heart far to often when it comes to my self achievements and pushing myself to the limit…but it seems as in the same breath I am the first to decide to give up and walk away from something that I don’t really feel like doing. That doesn’t even make sense! How can I be this competitive motivated practicing overachiever and the next give up and walk away? Is everyone this complicated to understand or is it just me? I seem to do better under pressure in any situation vs. planning things out in adequate amounts of time. Perhaps I am a closet adrenaline junkie utilizing each situation as a potential fix.

Now I am rambling…does this make sense to anyone out there? I am my own malfunction people.
