Staying human

So much is invested in telling us that we have to be “productive” and optimized and more like machines. I‘m still working on shaking that guilty feeling when I do ”nothing.” But it’s not nothing. It‘s actually rebellion to chill out for a day and let the mind and body rest

Being okay with doing nothing

Sometimes I get in bed, I’ve done nothing but breathe, stay in place, and distract myself for the entire day, and I feel a pretty heavy weight that’s only gotten bigger as I’ve gotten older; you know that voice that says, “i’ve got to do what this successful person did or i need to finally take that advice or i need to be PRODUCTIVE”. and in fact, I spent the whole day worrying so much about being productive that I didn’t do anything I really wanted to do in the first place. And that’s okay! We are not machines, we’re not broken or repaired, we just are. we are not measured by what we can produce, even though the society we live in wants us to feel that way soooo bad. Fuck that. find the love in the world and everything else will fall into place. be okay with doing nothing

let your body take the lead

don’t set an alarm for the morning, snack when you’re hungry, take a nap if you feel like it. give yourself activities that keep you in your body (cooking? putting together a puzzle? craft time?) to slow you down a bit. but if your heart desires a binge watch, then let it be free ✨ no guilt, only rest! so glad you have this quiet time to yourself!

you’ll never know the alternative outcome

when you make a decision you’ll never know what the alternative outcome would have been like. you can make it up in your head but there’s no logical way to actually know. so just make a decision and have confidence that it was the right one and if for some reason it’s not, you have no reason to believe the other outcome would have been any better or worse. regret is a wasted emotion for that reason.
