In this episode of the Productivity Podcast, I talk about how you can avoid feeling guilty during your down time when you're not doing anything.
Key takeaways:
- To avoid feeling guilty during down time, work hard during up time (kind of obvious).
- Enjoy the moment. Be in the present and stop worrying about the future.
- If you're going to have some down time, don't ruin it by thinking about what you should be doing. Otherwise you're not enjoying your down time, or getting anything done (which is a lose, lose situation).
- Schedule your down time. Plan it out and make your leisure activities fit around your work and other productive time.
