you don’t have to always be “on”

Be sure to allow your Self time to be “off.”

Whether you’re excited about the progress you are making towards your authentic life or you’re still caught up in the allure of today’s “hustle culture”, taking some time to do nothing, moving you towards your authentic life is healthy.

It’s actually important.

Whatever you do when you’re “off” is most likely something your authentic Self enjoys, keeping you aligned with the work you’ve been doing.

I started reading a book for pleasure last night. It has nothing to do with spirit, mind, body, money, creativity, or my research for the authentic life. It’s called Project Hail Mary, and it’s about a school teacher who finds his Self in space, unsure of how he got there.

This morning, I made the connection back to my childhood and how I loved reading science fiction books–I read every Michael Crichton book I could get my hands on in middle school. I also realized the last time I read a book for enjoyment was a couple of years ago when I read Dark Matter in a day–another science fiction book.

Instead of trying to make a little more progress last night, I just read for pleasure and quickly found my Self sucked into the book.

We don’t always have to be “on”.

When we allow our Self to switch to “off,” we get a chance to recover, relax, and tap into parts of our authentic Self that we may not access very often.

See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
