    1. There’s a world of difference between rest and procrastination. Procrastination gets in the way of your goals. Rest helps you achieve them. But even if it didn’t, who cares? As a human you need - and deserve rest.

    Productivity porn will tell you you don’t need or deserve rest. That you should make rest useful. This is the most damaging message within productivity porn IMO. Rest is not what happens when you collapse from exhaustion. Rest is doing what you want, when you want to do it.

      Rest is doing nothing! If that is something you enjoy. It’s a book you want to read. It’s a walk or a hobby or exercise you love. Rest is not “should”, rest is not “cant’t”.

        Anyway it’s Sunday and if you can, have a nice rest today. Maybe it will make for a better Monday. Maybe it won’t. Regardless, maybe you can take pleasure from it and let go of need for utility.
