Resting is NOT sitting on the couch eating chips, drinking beer and watching videos.

Deliberate resting is engaging the brain in some kind of creative activity.

For me, I dance tango every Sunday.

The ideal scenario is to find activities that both rejuvenate and excite you, you’ll be in a better position to do your best work. Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, one of the guests in my podcast and author of Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less, explains:

“Work and rest are actually partners. They are like different parts of a wave. You can’t have the high without the low. The better you are at resting, the better you will be at working.”

What is your deliberate rest activity?

1. Why people are afraid of public speaking
2. My life as a solopreneur
3. Give yourself permission to do crappy work
