“atelic” activities — things we enjoy for their own sake. (Keiran Setiya)

Oliver Burkeman’s “Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals” Book

“Nothing is more alien to the present age than idleness.” “How can there be play in a time in which nothing has meaning unless it leads to something else.”

– John Gray

“Because children grow up, we think a child's purpose is to grow up. But a child's purpose is to be a child. Nature doesn't disdain what lives only for a day. It pours the whole of itself into each moment. We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in its flow, later is too late.”

– Alexander Hudson

Steven Pressfield’s “The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles” Book

Lulu Miller’s “Why Fish Don't Exist: A Story of Loss, Love, and the Hidden Order of Life” Book

Jamie Drake’s “Easy Target” New Single
