If you have any pride in your work then there's always a clock. Whether it measures money, time, progress, or self-worth. The clock is always ticking.
For people who don't care about the outcome. The clock doesn't exist.

But then the more I thought, the more I realized you were right. Regardless of how much pride I take in my work and how much effort I put in, if I care about the outcome, I have to monitor my progress regularly. I have not been doing it for one of the most important projects of my life and thanks to you, I will start now.
I take extreme pride in my work and I am always aware of the clock ticking. Every. Second. A wise and accomplished person once said to me that in the end nothing remains but personal relationships. Take good care my friend, lest you lose in the process much more important things in life that you are now enjoying.
Indeed. That is exactly how I felt. But it does lead to prioritizing the journey at the expense of the destination i.e. outcome. Hence my realization that I need to pay more attention to the outcome.
