What influences you to think that fast thinking and pressing to get things done in a hurry is the optimal way? How are you kidding yourself or self-sabotaging the quality of your work…And more importantly, the quality of your life?

Eknath Easwaran inspires us again with his words of wisdom in Words to Live By:
"Somehow in our modern civilization [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we have acquired the idea that the mind is working best when it runs at top speed. Yet a racing mind lacks time even to finish a thought [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], let alone to check its quality. When we slow down the mind, we work better at everything we do. Not only is the quality of our work better; we are actually able to get more done. A calm, smooth-running flow of thought saves a lot of wear and tear on the nervous system, which means we have more vitality and resilience in the face of stress."

In this moment [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], try this with me. Just hit the pause button for a couple minutes. Breathe. Reflect on what’s important to you. Allow some clarity to come in about what is the next best investment of your precious energy. This could be for your life or simply the rest of your day. Both are relevant paths toward waking up inspired. Of course, the bigger the depth of your pauses, the bigger chance you have at real joy.

After years of coaching and study with master teachers about what it takes to truly create a “wake up inspired” successful life, I have come to believe that the first critical step is to Hit the Pause Button.
