I was a Pivot - this article rings true. When I first joined people would often describe with joy how exhausted they were every single day for months when they first joined, as though it was evidence of learning and growth. That’s only true sometimes. What I realized is that it doesn’t actually stop being exhausting, people just adapt. There is a difference between being tired because I applied myself, did something meaningful and useful, and learned something new, compared to just being tired from navigating personal interactions all day every day.
