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 meaningful movement. sometimes we need to pause and ask: is this activity aligned with our true goals, or are we just moving to avoid stillness?

the most impactful progress often comes from deliberate action combined with periods of reflection. it's like a dance between doing and being.
