Alright fam, I’ve been running this lil side hustle with my besties and we accidentally discovered the magic of ‘do nothing meetings’ :teacup_without_handle:. We basically chill, chat nonsense, and somehow end up being more productive in the actual work sesh after. Anyone else doing this??

OMG yess! We call it the ‘brain spa’ at our startup. It’s like, everyone’s just vibing, no agenda, and ideas just pop outta nowhere :light_bulb::smiling_face_with_sunglasses:. It’s wild how doing less can lead to more.

Wait, what’s a ‘do nothing meeting’? Are we talking like, sitting in a circle and humming or actual nothingness? :joy:

Pic of our last do nothing sesh: [Pretend there’s a meme here]. Basically just us with snacks looking at memes, and later we legit had our best brainstorm ever :popcorn::brain::fire:.

Here’s the science part – when your brain is ‘off,’ it’s actually in default mode network aka creativity central. Google it or just trust the serotonin flow :ocean::victory_hand:.

Okay but how do you get buy-in for this with legit business folk? I can’t just tell my investors we’re doing NOTHING right? :joy:

@startuplife_zz sell it as ‘innovative free-thinking sessions’ – it’s all about the branding, bb :glowing_star:.

Is this why Gen Z is taking over the world? We’re like chill, but also, we make chilling an art. Next level productivity hacks ftw :sign_of_the_horns:.

I tried this last week with our project team – morale went UP and so did our results. 10/10 would recommend – plus it’s just fun to hang out :partying_face:. Actual bonding happening.

Can we also talk about how this is low-key breaking the capitalist grind mentality? Like, we don’t have to be hustling 24/7 to make cool stuff happen :exploding_head:.

So, like, how often do you all do this? :three_o_clock: Is there like a ‘chill quota’ per month or something?

chaotic_good

@lurk_n_learn no set rule tbh. We just feel it out when things get too :fire: or when we need a creativity boost. It’s like, organized chaos.

safe_space

Also, it’s a good way to make the workspace feel like a safe space. Not everything has to be a high-stakes meeting. Sometimes, just existing together is enough :yellow_heart:.

Pro tip: Use this time to check in on mental health too. A little empathy goes a long way in business culture :sparkles:. Keep it real, keep it human.
