• Don't make a setback about merit ("I'm not good enough"), but about production ("I could be doing more").
At first I read that to be "don't let a setback about merit be about production" - and I actually prefer that. Rather than reframing my setbacks, I'd rather ignore the "I'm not good enough" (because that pops up every Tuesday and Thursday) and focus on "well, I won't improve by not writing, so I guess I'll keep writing".
Or like the quote my sister picked up somewhere: "Thou has not to like it, thou has just to do it".
