Downtime ups your uptime!

“Destroy the idea that you have to be constantly working or grinding to be successful. Embrace the concept that rest, recovery and reflection are essential parts of the process to a successful and happy life.” – Unknown?

 

I used to find it hard to relax. I thought taking time off was wasting time I would never get back, and I felt guilty for not making use of every spare second.

Then things changed. I slowed down, started smelling roses and enjoying downtime.

And you know what? Turns out rest, recovery and reflection actually make you more productive/efficient/centered/wise. Downtime helps your uptime.

Happy Sunday nerds! Enjoy the day 🙂
