No matter how hard I try (and I do try, I'm extremely mindful of it) I always feel guilty if I'm not super busy or don't reach a certain threshold (which I arbitrarily set for myself in a different time and place) of productivity.

What's worse is that my best ideas come to me when I'm doing nothing for a while, and my mental health is better cause I have time to process and contemplate. I'm also noticeably more creative after I give my mind time to be idle, yet despite knowing that and telling myself it's okay - necessary even - I still feel guilty deep down when I do it!

Anyone else feel this way? How do you get over it....
