Rest & Play - why might they feel like hard work?

article image placeholderUploaded by @DBPardes
Media and entertainment and news all kind of swirl around us and are barking things at us. And being very busy seems to be a really important thing. Like, I'm so busy, I can't talk now. But what about thinking about not being so busy and saying, you know what? I'm not so busy right now. I'm taking a new approach to life, and I'm going to get my work done, make sure I'm responsible and accountable

So while I'm working or for leisure, I should say maximizes time for leisure because I've workedplayed, I've done my thing during the day, my 810 hours or whatever that is, so that I can completely turn off and just rest. Because what I find or seen or observed is that we work as you say, you come home, you're exhausted. And so we don't have time

But I think about my parents generation, for sure. They had really a tough time having jobs that did not ever resemble play. But I love what you're saying here, which is like, really, you know what? There's an attitude that you embody like, no, I'm not going to have such a delineation. Like, why not have that playful life? And if your life feels not playful, then you have to consider a career change

I know I'm not perfect, but this is something that I think about all the time. I think about this all the time. And it's just like the matter of, I know I deserve this, but I don't know what to do. And especially since I'm very much surprised, it's also been a lot harder. And I don't know, everything is just overwhelming. And on top of that, I'm really sensitive
