Yeah I got potential. I put in a lot of effort to reach that potential.

Did the effort pay off? No.

Did it look like I didn't do anything? Yes.

When I asked for help I was told "just do it." So I kept trying really hard but still the results were far less than the effort put in. For some reason I burnt the hell out overextending myself to get stuff done.

I feel like the task is moving water from a pond to a large basin. Everyone else got buckets and I got a ladle.
