On days where I do well at my job I feel good, optimistic and motivated in my life, including non-work related activities.
Unfortunately the same is true when I don't have a productive day. It makes me feel depressed, worthless, unable to plan ahead and unable to look at the positives in life.
How do I learn to separate the two? I think I have a good work-life balance, but work seems to disproportionately affect my mood. On a day where I can't solve a bug or my progress is slowed down due to some distraction, I feel like shit and I can't seem to shake it off.
