Remember to Slow Down

In the hustle and bustle of modern life, it's easy to lose sight of the profound truth that monks understand so well: our time and presence are our most valuable assets. Yet, amidst the seeming chaos of endless tasks and distractions, we often lose track of what is most important and find ourselves squandering our greatest gifts. When you find yourself pulled in a million different directions, reacting rather than responding, and allowing the urgent to overshadow the important - it’s not time to speed up, it’s time to slow down.

THIS WEEK: Try out a slow day, where you intentionally approach your day 15%-20% slower than normal. Pay attention to how this feels and how this impacts your decision-making ability.
