JOMO

An acronym: the Joy Of Missing Out.

The idea is not to delight in skipping the things you could be doing instead, but rather, to take joy in the things that a younger you would not have considered worth doing:

Like reading a book by the river.

Or going on a slow and pleasant hike.

Or skipping a rad adventure to sleep in and meet a friend for coffee.

Embracing a shift from doing as much as you can fit in, to doing what feels right, even if that means doing “nothing”.

A younger you would have considered it a waste of time.

Not because it was, but because you had yet to discover the JOMO.
