maybe
Update: somehow the last 2 paragraphs of Paul Graham’s Is it Worth Being Wise? relates to the quote..
..Perhaps if we acknowledge that some amount of frustration is inevitable in certain kinds of work, we can mitigate its effects. Perhaps we can box it up and put it away some of the time, instead of letting it flow together with everyday sadness to produce what seems an alarmingly large pool. At the very least, we can avoid being discontented about being discontented.
If you feel exhausted, it’s not necessarily because there’s something wrong with you. Maybe you’re just running fast..
