Every game has a pause button for a reason. Nobody plays their best by never stopping.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

Pausing is built into every game because continuous play degrades quickly. Attention narrows, mistakes multiply, and the person who never stops ends up doing more hours at a much lower standard while feeling virtuous about it. Rest is not the reward at the end of the work. It is part of the machinery that makes the work any good.

Put one real stop into this week and defend it like a fixture. No screens, no catching up, nothing productive attached. Then judge the quality of what you do afterwards.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH
