|
Hi Reader, If you've been a subscriber, you may know that when I've been busy and don't have an article to share with you, it helps my work life balance. That said, I still have your Two for Tuesday recommendations. RecommendationsThis week's recommendations can help you with your own self-care through examination of how you use your time. Time Confetti and the Broken Promise of Leisure by Ashley Whillans. This article notes that we have more leisure time, but it's less relaxing. That's because of "time confetti." If you want to take better care of yourself, this is a must read. Satisfying vs. Productive - New York Times. As a self-avowed productivity geek, this one hit home. It makes the case that making use of your free time should be more satisfying than productive. Ouch! PodcastEpisode 308 of The Non-Anxious Leader Podcast, 5 Ways to Assess the Health of Any Relationship System – Part 2 of 2, is now available. That's it for this week. Thanks for reading. Peace, Jack P.S. If you are new to Two for Tuesday, you can read previous editions HERE. P.P.S. If this was forwarded to you by a friend, you can subscribe here. |
