In a world where the tyranny of schedules threatens to consume us all, we must stand strong against the tide of time management. This is the Schedule-it-or-Not-the-Schedule manifesto, a declaration of independence from the all-encompassing grasp of schedules.
We, the undersigned, reject the notion that every waking moment should be accounted for in a neat and orderly list. We refuse to live in a world where every waking thought must be scheduled, every waking action choreographed.
We yearn for the freedom to simply exist, untethered from the constant ticking of the clock, unencumbered by the weight of our own expectations.
We assert that the right to schedule is inextricably linked to the right to be free. That is, the freedom to schedule, or not to schedule, as one sees fit.
We hold that schedules, like ideas, have no inherent value. That a schedule is but a tool, a means to an end, not an end in itself.
We recognize that the un-scheduled, the untamed, and the unplanned have inherent value. That those who live in the moment, unfettered by the chains of time, are the true masters of our collective destiny.
We pledge to defend the right to do nothing, to simply be, against all who would seek to schedule our every waking thought.
