There are times where I can be attempting self-compassion and talking myself out of a frustration or trying to encourage myself to keep doing something and angry me comes out and goes "what's the point? Just get your f*ing head in the game and get the job done. Do it right, do it well and then move on"
such a great question!! yes, and no...it's ok to feel frustration, the key is to not get caught up in it and let it be the only experience you feel. Let yourself feel it fully - really feel it in your body - and then decide - will you choose more of that energy or will you choose to give the frustration over to your heart and choose something higher for yourself? Is that old pattern of "just get it done" really creating more of what you want????
