Showerthought: my auto mechanic in Fresno asked me when I last sat down and did nothing, and I couldn't answer him
I took my truck in for an oil change last month and the guy behind the counter, Mike, asked me what I do to relax. I laughed and said I don't have time for that between two jobs and a 4 year old. He told me he had the same answer for 20 years until his body made him take a break, and now he schedules 30 empty minutes on his calendar every day like it's a real appointment, which he actually showed me on his shop computer. I didn't think much about it until I caught myself eating dinner standing over the sink at 9pm that same night. So how does anyone here actually build in downtime without feeling like you're slacking off?
