Just being???

What the heck is THAT?

There are lists to revise…calendars to plan…emails to reply to…and of course, CRM data to record.

Oh wait…it’s the weekend. (Ahhhhhhhhhhh….)

You earn your graduate degree from the Workaholics U. during the week, so it’s time now to perfect the art of not giving a shite on the weekend. Ignore ALL of the work you had earmarked for this weekend and do nothing.

Just be.

Your work will be there on Monday.

Today, do nothing. Literally.

If you find that doing nothing gets boring after a while, how about settling for not working at work?

Today, lose yourself in a book. How about fiction?

What about Boys in the Boat if you haven’t read it? Or, 11/23/63 by Stephen King?

In this compelling TED Youth Talk from the charming and calmly passionate ninth grader Ella Lee, you’ll hear her persuasive case for why reading provides immense joy and personal escapism.

Give in to Ella for a few minutes and let her convince you to pick up a book today!

Or, don’t even read a book to escape…literally, do nothing.
