To be idle requires a strong sense of personal identity.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Stillness is required for personal reflection.

i’m always busy, but never in a hurry. And sometimes, i’m busy doing nothing.

To do great work a man must be very idle as well as very industrious.

This long way applies to everything

As CEO of You, Inc, it is ALWAYS your turn.

Our time is an expense and we often feel shortcuts are like getting a discount. But in reality the long way is the shortcut.

You may save time, but you don’t save personal growth, you short change yourself.

Like compound interest over time, you reap the most when you sow early.

In praise of slowness (video)

Disney Institute Keynote Speaker
Is it possible to make being uncomfortable your comfort zone?

 

The truth hurts and the truth can set you free.

How often do you drive the speed limit?

Seriously.

How often?

This question is really asking, “How often do you break the law?”

This TED Talk is much deeper and highly recommended.

But alas, you’re too busy.

Hurry on your way, i get it (and eventually, speed gets us).

How intentionality teaches you

Horseback rider in Orlando neighborhood
While writing yesterday quickly captured neighbor riding her horse through our front yard.

 

It’s taken our entire lifetime to get to this day called today.

When we live intentionally, everything becomes our teacher.

Everything.

Paying attention can only happen when we slow down.

Slowing down is not socially promoted or even remotely possible in today’s world.

Is it?

Give up or slowly work on slowing down.

Shedding, purging, letting go, simplifying, pausing to sit – and listen to our own breath.
