For the last 4’ish years, started taking naps mid-day. But I’d just do it in between appointments and Zooms, with no recurring specific time.
Sometimes as early as 10 am. Other times 3pm. Because, I “couldn’t” schedule a nap. “Had” to keep that time open for work. This weekend I realized, “What am I doing?”
- People rag on you when you’re broke.
- They rag on you when you’ve made it.
- “Not normal” when you’re grinding.
- “Lazy” when you’re tired.
- They rag when you’re down.
- They rag when you’re up.
But, this is why I busted my ass for 17 years. Freedom. It’s here. It’s arrived. I’ve earned it.
That’s it… noon – 1pm is now blocked every day for naps. The entirety of Fridays, too. No more meetings.
Actually taking Fridays off is a whole other story. That’ll take some time for me to lean into, because I love what I do. For now, just a productivity block so I can focus on focusing.
But now also an open door in the future for perpetual 3 day weekends.
There are no limits other than the ones you surrender to or create yourself. ⛓️💥
