    Dont worry, that inconsistency will haunt you through out your entire professional life and probably personal life too. You can expect to be pulled into constant meetings about your Performance, communication, and consistency.

    The best days will be when your manager talks to you about that consistency, only to have your partner hit you with the same types of complaints.

      I’d like to offer a reframe that’s been helpful to me, if I may.

      The inconsistency will haunt you throughout your entire life, but only if you let it. Learning how to embrace and understand my emotions (instead of controlling [or suppressing] them) has been incredibly worthwhile to me. Therapy is a good avenue for this, but I understand it’s both expensive and not yet fully accepted by American culture. I also recommend the book The Tao of Fully Feeling, and here’s an excerpt: https://www.pete-walker.com/taoFullyFeeling.htm
