recovery plan

 "What are you doing on evenings and weekends that renews you?  Of the four main sources of well-being, which ones are you cultivating in your time away from markets:

*  Happiness, and doing things that are fun and enjoyable
*  Satisfaction, and doing things that are meaningful
*  Energy, and doing things that energize you mentally and physically
*  Relationships, and doing things that bring you closer to the ones you care about

A good recovery plan should include healthy eating, high quality sleep, and activities that check all four of the boxes above.  

It's the watering you do at night and on weekends and holidays that allows your career to blossom during the work day."
