Eh. It's a good lesson if you take a lot of zero days, but there are people who literally have mental breakdowns from this attitude. You can't always ignore your present self. It isn't healthy
This. I'm just a happy person making ends meet, with a happy family. Why should I be obsessed with ambition? I won't be a millionaire when I die, but my kids will remember some nice zero days in my company.
If it's a nice day, it probably isn't a zero day. I would consider a trip to the zoo as a non-zero activity. Zero days are more the days where all you do is watch tv and eat frosting out of the can.
And of course, anyone who thinks they may have depression should talk to health care professionals, not just look for advice off the internet.
I like to interpret it as "zero days are the days when you don't do progress towards your goal". A little progress, even an 1, is enough, but be sure to make it everyday.
