And sometimes, we simply do not chose to make the time. We are better off to admit this to ourselves and then to others who are counting on us.

Welcome to the blog!

I agree, sometimes your victory will be closer if you chill for a bit. Everyone needs time to chill.

Not everyone realises that they need time to chill. Not everyone realises that doing nothing or doing something mindless or just being is an important part of chilling. Just ask any parent who sees a child doing nothing. The immediate response is to get the child to do something constructive.

Just being can be constructive.

But that’s not what I’m talking about in this post. Just being or passive activities seem to be the default for a lot of people. These are the people who would usually pick a passive activity when presented with an extra or spare hour. Those are the people who probably don’t accomplish much (huge generalisation here!).

And of course there are times in everyone’s lives when you go through cycles of non-constructive behaviour, simply because.

The post was meant to stimulate thought about how you are spending your time, and to look at ways of finding time to do some planning.

Thanks for commenting and creating a debate!

Maybe it’s because I lean towards introversion, but there are times when I need to decompress and give my brain and senses a break. Otherwise, I start to feel overstimulated and stressed out.

After some chill time, THEN I’m able to plan, do and deal w/life.

Down time can be quality time for some of us!

I think that one problem is that we confuse “down time” with “wasted time”. Down time is important to recharge our mental batteries. Wasted time is just gone forever.
