In this week's episode, I talk about "hustle culture" or the idea that our value as a person is directly tied to how much work we can get done in any given moment. That value does not carry over to tomorrow or next week (so as soon as we finish a big project or get a ton of work done, great, let's get started on the next big thing right away!). But this is not how our actual animal bodies work. If we do a ton of work one day, the next day we will need to slow down and take a break. Or, if we don't slow down, eventually we will burn out, get sick, etc., and our bodies will force us to take a break. So in this episode, I talk about trying to think in a new way, to say "I've done enough" and close your computer sometimes. Watch a movie, or a TV show, go for a walk, call a friend (or your mom), go for coffee with someone, whatever is a good break for you. We only get this one life, do we really want (or need) to spend every second of it hustling for approval from ourselves/society? Action item: next time you get a ton of work done, give yourself a break the next day and rest instead of immediately jumping to the next thing.
