About This Quote

This quote by the great writer and philosopher, Leo Tolstoy is a simple yet wise piece of advice. The difficulty lies in not feeling guilty about doing nothing. We don’t have to feel guilty about doing nothing. In fact, we should do it often.

In most cases, the most productive thing we can do with our time is nothing. But, we need to do it in a way that doesn’t make us feel bad about it.
