Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?

I have unproductive days when I can’t figure out where did all my time go. I don’t think I often have lazy days, assuming lazy means inactive. All the days feel so full of todo items, including weekend and vacation days.

I also push us to do the 10k steps per day, which doesn’t encourage inactivity.

The Reader Council

There’s a new initiative by Dave Martin, WordPress.com’s lead of the new Social team called Reader Council. The Reader Council will be a p2 blog dedicated to hearing the community requests for Reader improvements and bugfixes. I’m very happy that this is happening and I hope it makes the Reader better, and our blogs cooler.

A quote about mistakes

Found this gem on X today:

The beauty of doing nothing is that you can do it perfectly. Only when you do something is it almost impossible to do it without mistakes. Therefore people who are contributing nothing to society, except their constant criticisms, can feel both intellectually and morally superior.

— Thomas Sowell

Is it right, though? Can we make mistakes when we drive? Or when we land airplanes? Most areas of life have mistake tolerance, and the mistake tolerance gives an opportunity for risk taking. However, some life situations do not allow that. But in any case, the oversimplification of otherwise very complex problems feels pleasant to the eye. If you’re active, try to change things, you’ll make mistakes, will learn from them, and most of the times it will be okay.
