En Italia hay una idea hermosa llamada “el placer de no hacer nada”. Sentarse en calma, beber tu café y vivir el momento sin prisas. Un recordatorio simple: a veces el descanso en sí mismo es la felicidad.

Your company does not care about you. Your industry does not care about you. If you got hit by a truck today, you'd be backfilled by the end of next week (or honestly in this market, your seat just gets erased). Companies are cutting thousands of employees at a time while hitting record profits. The stock goes up on the announcement while executives get rewarded for the cut. You will realize this at some point that you are just a number on a spreadsheet, hopefully sooner than later. This doesn't mean stop trying. It doesn't mean give up. I still work hard. But I know why. I work to afford memories with my family, to put my daughters in a better spot than my parents put me, and to exit the rat race comfortably while I still have the knees to enjoy it. Everyone figures this out eventually eventually. Some at 25. Some at 55. The ones who figure it out late are the ones who made work their whole identity and look up one day to find out they wasted 30 years of their life prioritizing the wrong things in life. I highly doubt you want your gravestone to say "worked really hard" or "achieved X at work." I know I want mine to say "Great father, husband, and friend."

Hate to break it to you guys but sometimes you have to do things you don’t like for the sake of having a community. Avoiding consistency with the people in your life is working against us and the data already shows it. If you think connections can be sustained on absence carry on
