nostr:npub1gnxcgfn80yk2dgkdq6luj4p9cemajz85flcuxrkudlyn7pgya7jq3twfgl i run out of juice pretty quickly if i try to force myself to do things. when it comes to force, i'm more of a sprinter than a marathoner, and this is a pretty persistent pattern that goes back to early childhood, so i have it down as a core part of my personality. i'm not a forceful person to others either. more of a gentle encouragement type. i have a lot more patience for that than for applying force. and i respond better to gentle encouragement than to discipline. that's something my parents never understood, so they were never able to teach me basic life skills.
