Day 346 - JOMO, the joy of missing out https://golifelog.com/posts/jomo-the-joy-of-missing-out-1639268885568
Not FOMO, but JOMO.
Not the fear of missing out, but the joy of missing out.
JOMO is feeling content with staying in and disconnecting as a form of self-care, as a way of life.
And somehow the pandemic restrictions and lockdowns made doing this easier. In fact, it has given me an extended period of focus that’s rare in the last four decades of my life. A focus that I had only experienced on meditation retreats, except that this time it’s focus on growing my indie projects, and on my family.
It’s surprising how enjoyable being this focused can feel.
