A confusing title for a blog post which is supposed to be centred around the theme of motivation but hear me out.
Most people make the common mistake of confusing idleness for laziness. It is untrue that being idle is a fault or a bad habit. In fact I have found it to be a truly inspirational past time.
I have found instead of being bound by a full time job the terrifying leap into the world of the part time worker (and reflective salary) has been the best decision I could have made for my happiness and well being.
Time is worth so much more than money! We all know this. Why dedicate the best days of your life to well whatever it is that you do!
I have an amazing job. I am a teacher.
But I recognise that I am not only a teacher.
By reducing the days I am at the work place I created space for my idleness.
And by idleness I mean freedom. Freedom to live and do the things I love...or not.
Give yourself permission to be idle. Get up late one day. Avoid all appointments. Stay at home. Then see how much time you have. Today set out with the motivation to be idle!
I'm not saying neglect your children, stop washing and become remorse.
Just be.
Oh and go on ignore Faceache!
