As the weather gets warmer I get so excited about the increase of things to do an see that sometimes I forget to have a day or two where I can just be. Or play silly phone games. Hang with my cat. Knit. Read. Just kind of be. Where the plan is no plan.
Productivity is great but what if sometimes I didn't focus on that. Sometimes creatives call this filling the well, and yes, that too. But I think sometimes naming it a thing that ties it to being productive again, even in the future, sort of takes away from the relaxing and not being productive. Yes, rest is a key part of productivity. But also restung is not just the precursor to working again. Rest is also rest.
