The antidote to exhaustion may not be rest. It may be wholeheartedness. You are so exhausted because all of the things you are doing are just busyness. There's a central core of wholeheartedness totally missing from what you're doing.

David Steindl-Rast in I Will Not Die an Unlived Life by Dawna Markova

 

To Practice This Thought:
The next time you feel like you need a nap, instead do something you are really excited about.
