Gosh I felt this. I have lately felt so much guilt enjoying “nonproductive” activities such as reading, watching tv, and playing video games, even though I enjoy them after my kids have gone to bed, after my school work is finished (I currently have a M.Div and Bachelor of Arts Degree, currently pursuing my BSN), after my work is finished (I work in hospice), and when I have spent time doing my devotions.
I hate that it feels like such a trap. That I can’t unwind. That I feel guilt for just relaxing because I feel the need to “produce” or “be more”, even though I’m just slowly burning out.
Idk. I’m learning to just live in the moment and let myself rest when I need rest, setting aside all of the internet gurus and motivation books that push nonstop productivity and busyness hustle culture. But it’s a tough thing to unlearn.
I am shocked you don't have a bigger audience. Your content is top notch
Thank you Fabian! It's slowly growing :)
Loving the return of the Nat to TH-cam. Keep up the posting cadence - you’re helping a lot of people.
Thank you Stephen! It’s good to be back
I am so glad that I found you. Your choice of books and interpretations really suits my interests and thoughts. For a young person looking for philosophy and perspective, this is gold :)
You inspire me to become better! Long time follower here. Glad to get more of your content.
You're a great thinker Nat, always loved your book reviews, great to hear your thoughts on this interesting one!
Just found your channel - awesome videos!

Bro what's some best books to read for tackling Discouragement ?
Hmmm like for feeling more inspired? Maybe Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins?
