Your wide-open Saturday tells the truth about you that your résumé never will.

Unclaimed time is the honest test. When nothing is required of you and nobody is checking, what you drift toward is a fairly reliable account of who you are, in a way that a list of achievements never manages. A record of your obligations describes what was asked of you. A free day describes what you chose.

Watch one open Saturday without judging it. Note where the hours actually went rather than where you intended them to go. If the gap between those two bothers you, that gap is the useful part, and it is small enough to work on.
