#2: But I haven't earned a rest!

from The Academic Imperfectionist · host Rebecca Roache

What do you do when you're ready to collapse but you haven't done enough to earn a rest?

Rest is a physiological need - you no more have to earn it than you have to earn the oxygen you breathe. Get the kettle on, put your feet up, and spend your next 16 minutes chilling with The Academic Imperfectionist.
