What is the Calendar Phenomenon?

Can someone explain it to me please? I'm reading Skizzik's post in Day 26 of the Structured Education program and he mentions it twice.

Trying to recover as fast as possible, comparing your healing time to others etc. I think it’s a term people used on the wiki any years ago.

Yup - also known as "calendar watching". It's extremely counter-productive to recovery. Think of it as a tricky distraction created by your TMS brain to keep you stuck where you are.
