As someone who typically is a top performer, I found the dance just added overhead. I must keep tallies of all my "goals" and lists of everything I've accomplished in every respective category, and then waste hours cranking out my side of the review. Sure, I don't have time for it, so I make time for it, meaning less time for sleep.
