What do you do when you are not working?

The answer is resting. But how do you rest? Are you resting enough? Could you rest better? The answers to these questions and more questions that you probably have never considered are in this book Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less by Alex Soojung-Kim Pang.

I read this book over a year ago and believe the lessons learned have helped me shape what I do, how I rest, and how I teach. I am excited to share what I learned in this episode of the Amidon Planet Podcast.
