I don't know who Ashleigh Brilliant is but this statement is brilliant. After a long and amazing weekend at Bonnaroo (details forthcoming), I was exhausted. Monday morning, I had to be at meetings starting at 10am. Last night while sitting in my Italian language class, I couldn't keep my eyes open or focus on what she was saying. Since the class was for fun, I left. As soon as I got home, I went to bed. That was like 8pm folks. For someone who regularly goes to bed at 1am, that was super early for me. This morning I slept through my alarm and didn't roll out of bed until 9am. That is 13 hours of sleep!
Last night, I felt guilty for leaving class and going to bed so early when my to-do list is a mile long. I laid there thinking "I should be doing..." and "Don't forget about...". Honestly, the best thing I could have done for myself was take a complete rest. Today, feeling refreshed, I am 100% more productive than I even could have been last night. Sometimes, resting is necessary...
love the quote! i couldn't agree more!
ReplyDeleteIt would be a lot of pressure to have the last name Brilliant.
