The Wellness Edition No.80 // Taking care of yourself is productive

After I had been absent from the blog for so long, I am trying to post more often again. Every time I get back to blogging, I realize how much I actually missed it. Sometimes I even caught myself thinking that I should maybe close down the blog and the shop since I had not been very actively working on it lately.

Yes, even though I had the clear goal to create one product each month but we all know how it is; sometimes we are just busy doing all other sorts of things in life. And that was the case for me lately. also, I am not in a rush. I am really happy with my current freelance teaching job and after a few hours of teaching per day, my energy usually is gone therefore I don’t really get any design work done. But I am of course always trying to optimize the structure of my day, so I am hoping to squeeze more creative work in again.

Also sometimes you just need to chill out and relax to be productive again. Often I feel bad when I am not doing anything that I consider ‘productive work’ but I am trying not to be so hard on myself and to accept that resting actually is productive! After all, you gotta recharge your batteries so that the creative juices can flow again, right?!
