The 77% Weekly was so named because it is sent 40 out of 52 Monday mornings a year. But, this resulting percentage is also one of the core values that I maintain - that while we all ought to strive for excellence, we need to forgive ourselves when we don't achieve 100%, 100% of the time. (The) God (of my understanding) doesn't ask of me perfection, but (T)G(omu) does want me to take some time off from the rat race so I can remember what is important, and that I'm not a rat.
So, this non-issue is a time for me to remind you of Parkinson's law - work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion. Plan to take some time off, or your work might consume you. Why not start right now?
