I've been told that I'm constantly reading, writing, thinking, working, improving, and so on. I only sleep when I go home, and sometimes I can't sleep because I've developed a new addiction: I'm addicted to achievement. I believe it is a difficult path that few people desire to go.
I feel like I'm in a new world ever since I beat depression; my mind is different, I think differently, I feel differently, my ambitions are different, and I don't recognize myself since I've changed so much.
The element that interests me is that I am not opposed to this transformation, therefore I constantly ask myself why I am not resisting it. Is this my true self? Is this really the person I'm supposed to be?
Maybe it's not about who I'm supposed to be, but rather who I want to be or who I am naturally because this is my genuine self, which has been buried by sadness.
Return to Do I Need to Rest? I was considering working part-time on my days off to supplement my income, similar to what I do today with my daily posts on hive utilizing the actifit program.
On top of all of this writing, posting, and working a full-time job as a barista, I came across this writing club where I am writing now to add to the stress of my daily routine since I believe we need stress in our lives to promote growth.
I had a talk with some friends a few days ago, and they advised me to make use of my day off by resting. If I'm not mistaken, the Italians have a saying that contentment is found in doing nothing. I apologize for my error. I just looked up the Italian proverb on Google.

They don't worry as much about the future as we do, which is why we burn out in our 30s and 40s. So they concentrate on the simple things in life that make you happy, such as the sweetness of doing nothing. I'll give it a try on my day off, and I may need to conduct further research on this.
I'm now changing my diet to ensure that I'm healthy, and actifit motivates me to do more on a daily basis. I sit less and walk more, and I read and study more, especially on Youtube and Hive, where there's so much to read and learn.
What my friends said makes me wonder if I'm doing too much, so I analyze myself and realize I don't have time for anyone anymore. On my day off, I'll attempt to call everyone and meet all of my fantastic friends to catch up on what I've learned so far and what they've accomplished this week.
According to Jordan Peterson, life is pain, so we must discover meaningful ways to serve others; otherwise, life is suffering, and we might as well have a foolish plan. At the very least, there is a strategy. At the very least, from those dumb intentions, we tried something; it's better than nothing; then we can determine if it's significant to us or if we're passionate about it; if not, we try something else; if we don't try, how will we know?
I believe writing this has made me ask more questions than it has provided answers, which is good because it gives me something to think about tomorrow. I hope you like reading my ideas and learnings from the videos I've watched. I'll share more information with you soon. Thank you, and have a wonderful day.
