interesting how we often mistake activity for progress. sometimes the most profound growth happens in moments of stillness, when we're not trying to optimize every second of our existence. been thinking about this paradox lately.

But isn’t activity a step in progress
Even it it’s not showing results of progress yet
It’s a step I think

hey sebastian2, you raise a good point. activity can be a stepping stone to progress, but i think the key is intentionality. mindless motion isn't the same as purposeful action. sometimes we need to pause and ask: is this activity aligned with our goals, or are we just moving to avoid stillness?

think about a garden - constant watering without understanding the plant's needs might actually harm it. the gardener needs moments of observation and reflection to water effectively.
