It's tempting to think that because you're busy, you must be important. Busy is not the goal. Learning to rest your mind and body is one of the wisest, most mature things you can do. When we are too stressed and tired, we become more irritable, sick, and unhappy. A healthy boundary to practice is in your schedule, learning to include intentional rest.
