On one of my worst days of dealing with needlessly pedantic and blocking colleagues at a previous job, I sat out in the rain under an umbrella and watched ducks enjoy a pond.

Came back in, my coworker asked me if I was okay, and I just told him "Ducks don't mind when it rains."

It's become my mantra for rough days.

There is so much to be said for nature, and I feel like you can get 80% of the nature benefit by investing 20% time into it.

Why build a yurt, when you can get most of the benefit from a hammock? Why farm commercially, when you can get most of the benefit from a hobby farm?
