When making yearly or quarterly plans, I always fail to account for my diminished productivity in august due to the really hot afternoons.

The mornings are alright, but after 15:00 I usually feel too lazy to get out of the sofa to do anything useful.

But that is ok. I just have to accept the facts, make the most of my mornings and use my afternoons to relax at the pool without feeling guilty.

That last part is obviously the most difficult …
