Every once in a while
We need to cut some slack for ourselves
A day off
Binging through streaming services
A day full of gaming
Swiping through dumpster fire social media
While these are relaxing both body and mind
It’s not always fulfilling
At the end of the day we may look back and think
“What a waste of day”
A total couchpotato
The way I see it
There is another way to cut slack from the usual marathon
This method however, seems more “corporate”
You need a break
But you need the fulfillment
You need the feeling of achievement
Yet
You don’t want your casual tasks
That’s a different menu
If you focused on them this wouldn’t differ from any other monday
What you need is something diluted
Something soft to embrace
Something so in the middle
You will be excited for this however it will not drain your spirit
An easy, satisfying task
Clean your computer’s desktop for example
Rearrange books on shelf
Deep clean your espresso machine
Shine your shoes
Stack the wood
These are all small plush achievements
Within your comfort zone
That doesn’t require any special resources
Yet satisfy you when completed
Low hanging fruits
Soothing dopamine
Enjoy it
Till it wears off!
