Eighth Talk: The Art of Leisure
Vacation. Leisure. Free time. It’s a challenge, isn’t it?
You think it should be easy, but your mind still wants to optimize, still wants to do. You feel the pull—shouldn’t you be productive? Shouldn’t you earn this?
No. Not today. Today, you let it be fun.
Because leisure isn’t the opposite of work—it’s part of it. It’s part of the rhythm, part of the cycle. You push, you build, you grind—and then, sometimes, you ski. You sit in the sun. You taste something ridiculous.
And yeah, it’s lucky. It’s a little absurd. But that’s life. Sometimes you struggle, sometimes you soar. And when the universe shakes out in your favor, don’t apologize. Don’t overthink it.
Enjoy it. Fully. Absurdly. With zero guilt.
Because soon enough, the grind will call you back. But for now? This is the work. So do it right.
