It is good to do #nothing.

What do I mean by that?

In society we are often pressured to work all the time, to always do something "of value" or we're "wasting our time".

But this is often done without consideration for the benefit that a long term plan will have.

When you have a plan for the future, a plan where you know WHAT you're doing and WHY you're doing it, then when you finally spend time productively the result usually ends up higher #quality than if you dive straight in without a #plan. It's like taking more time to aim your shot, and learn how to aim as well, that when you finally pull the trigger you're more likely to hit what you're aiming at vs just blindly shooting.

How do you aim and figure out what you want your effort's outcome to be if you're always working and never refining your aim? You can't. Only by taking time for yourself where you do "nothing", do you then get to think about what you want for yourself and your future.

The more you do nothing, the more you have time to think. The more thinking you do, the better able you are to plan for your future. The better you plan for your future, the better it will be.

At the end of the day the narrative of "work work work work work" keeps us all unable to think, and thus unable to plan how to break free of the system. Keeping us trapped, poor, and unable to make uncompromised decisions.

Give yourself time to do nothing, and this will lead to improving yourself mentally/physically/emotionally/financially. Both by the health benefits of relaxation and by knowing what you actually want for your life.

When thought of this way you might say "nothing is more productive than work" and that's something everyone can agree on.
