📖 The Joy of Doing Nothing: Why You Don't Have to Be Productive 24/7 Somewhere along the way, we were taught that doing nothing = being lazy. But here’s the truth: rest is not a waste of time. We live in a world that constantly tells us to hustle, grind, and “make every second count.” But what if some of those seconds were made for lying on your bed, staring at the ceiling, or sipping tea while doing absolutely… nothing? 🛋️ Rest is Productive Too Doing nothing gives your brain space to breathe. It’s in those quiet, unplanned moments that creativity sneaks in. Ever noticed how your best ideas hit when you're in the shower or just zoning out?

Fun! But seriously, why is it that our minds wander so deeply at night? 🌌 Silence Brings Reflection I think it’s because late-night hours strip away distractions. No school, no responsibilities (for now), no buzzing notifications. Just you, your thoughts, and maybe a ceiling fan spinning slowly above your head like it knows all your secrets. At night, we feel everything louder. That text someone left on read hits harder. That compliment you got earlier? It feels more real. Regrets? Louder. Dreams?
