Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?
Hmm this was a tricky one to answer!! Hi everyone, how are you? Today I thought I’d answer a question because these prompts are so fun to do. Every now and then I remind myself to take a look at what the WordPress daily prompt is and I store any good ones in my drafts folder which is why this one was asked a while ago and I’m only getting round to it now 🤣.
My answer to this question is very much half and half and I’m sorry I can’t give a more solid answer but sometimes I’ve gotta be difficult like that 😊😂. I tend to put myself down for not being the slightest bit productive to be honest. I prefer days filled with moments of productivity so naturally, lazy days do tend to make me feel unproductive but if I’m not feeling well or something, I gradually accept that a lazy day is what is needed. I’m not saying that lazy days are only good for when you’re not feeling well, I have my moments when I enjoy sitting back and doing nothing other than watching the TV (I would say reading but I consider that to be productive!) and I can at those times appreciate feeling relaxed.
I like relaxing and if that’s seen as lazy then so be it! I think I’m kinda contradicting myself but I can’t seem to answer this question clearly 🙌🤣. I think I’m kinda weird in a way that I can label doing things that some people might consider lazy as productive. Like if I watch YouTube I think it can be productive as I’m catching up on my favourite YouTubers and I love to be on top of that so that I don’t have a long watch list waiting for me.
Am I steering away from the question at hand here? 🙈 I’m going to stick with it being half and half. I do look at my lazy days and try to pinpoint what was productive about them. I think I can always find something if I look hard enough 🤣 and that’s just something I find myself doing. Maybe being rested can be seen as productivity when you need it? I like that way of thinking! 💫
Just out of interest I asked my sister what she thought and she said that she doesn’t sleep well when she’s had a lazy day because she’s not tired out. So maybe a bit of productivity is needed even on those “lazy” days? It’s all food for thought really!
Anyway! Thank you for checking out this post 🫶. I’d love to hear your answer to the prompt in the comments! It’s an interesting question for sure and that shows in the fact that it had me so tongue tied! 😂
I’ll be off now, I will see you again next Friday but until then I hope you have a really good week! Buh-bye ✨️💗.
I loveee lazy days.
There are days when I’m at the top of my game, super productive, ticking all the boxes so when I get days when I can slack off and do nothing, I really love it. I don’t beat myself up about it because I know not every day is a lazy day.
Honestly, I see it as a blessing sometimes cause not everyone has the opportunity to just rest.

I get what your sister is saying, if I have a lazy day, falling asleep can be hard because I didn’t really do anything to tire me out. But I agree with you, too, I like to look at my day and see what was productive out of it, even if it was something small! 😊

Half and half is actually a really good answer. I think at the end of the day, it’s all about making sure you have a balance. A little bit of being unproductive is okay but too much isn’t good for you and vice versa. I really liked your answer to the prompt. Have a good weekend too! 💕
