What if “rest” was the new status symbol? 🤔
Imagine that…
You show off how much sleep you got as if it’s your new Lambo.
Your insta feed is full of posts of how well you napped.
A reel of you reading a book goes viral.
You even become a sleep influencer.
Posts about quality conversations you have with your friends/ family > posts of ppl in front of private jets
Forbes writes up a “40 under 40 resters” list
The term “rest culture” replaces “hustle culture” on LinkedIn

It sounds dystopian. And yes, privileged.
But for a recovering hustle guy, the POV shift has been so helpful to save my sanity.
The fantastic book, “Time Off” by Max Frenzel and John Fitch , made this exact case.
That instead of how busy you are, how much rest you get can almost be a vanity metric
It’s a fantastic book. One you can read while, ironically, resting.
