Balance
Last week Thursday, I left the house early, determined to make the most of my day. I had school in mind and planned to read and stay productive. As soon as I got to school, I settled in, and the morning went by smoothly. I was finishing off tasks on my list, feeling good about my progress. By 1pm, I resolved it was time for a break.

One thing I’ve learned about staying productive is that knowing when to pause is just as important as getting the work done. I needed a moment to rest and recharge. I found myself in a large, empty hall. It was so quiet that I felt the need to just sit and relax. My phone battery was running low, but I decided not to worry about it too much. I thought it was better to conserve what was left for later.

Before I knew it, the calmness in the hall had me dozing off. I ended up taking an unplanned nap that lasted about 40 minutes. When I woke up, I felt like a new person, completely refreshed and ready to get back to work. Sometimes, all you need is a short rest to regain your energy and focus.

After my nap, I stayed in the hall, reading and getting more things done. The hours flew by quickly, and by evening, I was feeling accomplished. Just when I was wrapping up my study session, I got a call from my good friend. She told me she had prepared some food, and you already know what that means.

With my day’s work behind me, I headed straight to her place. We shared a nice meal, and it was the perfect way to end my day. After eating, I felt content and ready to go home, knowing I had balanced both productivity and rest well.
