FWD: Lack of self-awareness in a writer...what to do

>and less efficiency. I have yet to encounter an exception.

Well then it MUST be true...I guess whatever I've been doing the last 20 years, I better cut it out. 

...and my personal worth is just fine

In my experience, there is a way to get it done in 40 hours a week or
fewer, and greater workloads than that most commonly lead to burnout
and less efficiency. I have yet to encounter an exception. There are
exceptions for emergencies or failures, obviously, but not on a
day-to-day basis. Note that nothing was said about quality of life.

If your personal sense of self-worth is threatened by that statement so
much that you have to read into my comments things that were not there,
it probably has nothing to do with me or what was actually written.
