The dark side of my summer of sloth.
In my last episode, I shared a full-throated endorsement of the virtues of sloth. But is there such a thing as too much sloth?

Drift is that feeling of listlessness and lack of motivation that comes from drifting down the river of life without a paddle for too long. That slow realization that it’s September, there’s a tsunami of work headed toward you, and your canoe is lodged in the riverbank.
Listen to the cautionary tale of my experience of drift – what it is, the tell-tale signs, and what to do if you find yourself there.
