Is it possible to put too much pressure on yourself?

[KaivaC]

People have ended up in hospitals and in the morgue...as guest of honor. All because they put too much pressure on themselves.

The answer to this question is a resounding and universal "Yes". You can put too much pressure on yourself regardless of what you do.

That's...that's a tad bit grim dark, innit? I don't think I'm close to a point where I'd end up in a hospital lol. This game isn't THAT important in my life.

And that’s your problem: stop comparing yourself to other raiders; to other forum members. You aren’t them, and they aren’t you.

You can study the top NINs. You can analyze their logs and their rotations. You can learn from them. But comparing yourself to them? You do this to yourself when you do that. You put this pressure on yourself when you do that. No one else. And how do you get it to stop?

You stop.

And if you can’t stop?
Then you need to step away from raiding until you can.

What I'm doing probably falls under misusing the logs, isn't it?

I felt that this was what I was supposed to do, just analyze and do this comparison to see if I was good. Can't step away at the moment because it would be unfair to my static. Regardless, stepping away isn't an option yet.
