This Is My Ideal Workday

This Is My Ideal Workday

A friend and I got to talking about our ideal workday yesterday.

Of course, the conversation quickly let to talk of living off dividends.

But that was not the question!

The question was: “If you have to work, what you like to do? What do you think would be the perfect thing?”

I said:

If I have to have a job I would like to write for myself

Work a half day productively writing, read more, more gym time, more walks

Go out to eat for breakfast more

Don’t publish on Fridays

Watch movies every night

(More family time too, obviously.)

Honestly, this is not largely different from what Ursula K. Le Guin did.

Ok, admittedly, I have though about this more than a little.

Here too.

And here.

Ok, fine, last one.

The thing is, if I stick with this blogging thing long enough, I might can pull this off.
