Ok but what's the inverse of this called, where you had to work hard for everything in school so getting the best grade in the class after all that hard work was so freaking rewarding, so you ended up with an absolutely stellar work ethic of "I just gotta work a little harder :)", right up until college where you went in with that work ethic only for no matter how hard you tried to "just work a little harder" you just kept falling further and further behind on course work, spending every waking moment trying to get everything done, forgoing sleep for days in favor of doing more homework because "surely I can get it all done if I just try a little harder", but there was always more homework than you would ever have time to do it all, nevermind do any of it well, resulting in you pushing yourself into a 4 day long depression nap, and now the idea of putting that much work and hard effort into something terrifies you now that you know that hard work can absolutely go completely unrewarded, and just make you run yourself into the ground instead?
