I’ve been feeling a little mentally sluggish the last week. That channel was not fully recharging regardless of how much extra sleep I was giving myself.<\/p>\n

I just realized yesterday was the first day I took off in 35 days.<\/p>\n

And I was going balls to the wall, working to exhaustive failure pretty much everyday, like a good high intensity weightlifting set.<\/p>\n

The beginning of the period marking a significant turning point in my energy, switching from a modal space of rehabilitation: reading, writing, reflecting and working on my friends’ mission aligned companies, to a modal space of entrepreneurial construction deeply aligned with my personal Campbellian Hero’s Journey.<\/p>\n

It was a good fucking fruitful sprint.<\/p>\n

But one day of recovery was not enough. I slept 11 hours and I’m still mentally sluggish today.<\/p>\n

So, I’m clearing stuff off the calendar for a day of recharging and restoration.<\/p>\n

And maybe tomorrow too.<\/p>\n

What is this 5 days on 2 days off construct 99% of people live by? What are weekends? What are weeks? What are months?<\/p>\n

Flow with the currents of your own energy, I say.<\/p>\n

And avoid the arbitrary constructs of society as much you can.<\/p>\n

So the edges you construct around your life are uniquely suited to your own path.<\/p>\n
