8 days agoEuropean here. I was scolded by my maths teacher for having completed all exercises up to two chapters further into the maths book. The reason was that she hadn’t explained it yet so I couldn’t know what I was doing. Even though the book had all the explanations written down. I ended up doing homework for other subjects during her explanations to stop bothering her by being ahead, but she never liked me afterwards.
That I feel immense guilt about any time spent not being productive in some way and believed (wrongly) that you can always just plan and to-do list your way out of feeling crappy. I basically learned to forgive myself for needing time to recover from stuff.
