Simple Saturday Links 7/24/10

If there is one downfall to living in an apartment with no Internet it’s that I have fallen behind in commenting and reading other blogs. Of course, it’s easy to get caught in the endless parade of reading and commenting but going absolutely cold turkey hasn’t been the best thing either. I’m trying to find that delicate balance between constructively building connections with other writers and creatively procrastinating on my own work.

I’m going to bring back the Simple Saturday Links this weekend. However, you may notice that all of these articles are from June. I’m a little slow but maybe you missed them the first time around?

The Simple Dollar — Professional Time, Leisure Time, and Wasted Time

Trent is hands down one of my favorite bloggers and an inspiration to basically everything I do with The Simpler Life. This is a great article about the difference between Leisure and Wasted time.

Purposeful Leisure time is what I strive for as much as possible and what has allowed me to do so much more than I ever thought possible.

    Thanks for the mention! I sometimes have trouble following my own advice about what to do while driving, but now that I've written it down I somehow feel more compelled to get it right.

    My true goal is to find a way to drive less, but I live so far from anywhere interesting that I won't be making that change any time soon.
