Welcome to The Daily Quote—a podcast designed to kickstart your day in a positive way. I'm your host, Andrew McGivern, for March 28th.
Now, today is National Hot Tub Day, a day to soak, relax, and convince yourself that sitting in a giant bowl of hot water is the ultimate form of self-care. And honestly, who am I to argue? That brings me to today’s quote from Mark Black, who once said:
"Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax."
Now, this might sound counterintuitive, especially if you have a mile-long to-do list staring you down. But let’s be real—how many times have you powered through exhaustion, only to find yourself making mistakes, forgetting things, or just staring blankly at your screen wondering why you walked into the room?
Yeah, exactly.
The truth is, constant busyness doesn’t equal productivity. If anything, it leads to burnout. And that’s why giving yourself permission to slow down—whether that’s in a hot tub, on a beach, or just with your feet up—isn’t laziness. It’s strategy. Because when you take time to recharge, you come back stronger, clearer, and actually ready to tackle what’s next.
So today, in honor of National Hot Tub Day, consider making relaxation part of your plan. Because sometimes, the best way to move forward is to simply sit back.
That’s it for today’s episode of The Daily Quote. Thanks for taking your relax break and listening to this show. If you know anyone that would like this episode... share it with them. I'm Andrew McGivern signing off for today but I’ll be back tomorrow, same pod time, same pod station, with another Daily Quote.
