- Do you find yourself in a permanent state of busyness, wondering when, oh when, will there be a let-up?
- Have you spontaneously snapped at fellow workers? Scowled at slow moving commuters? Suddenly flown into rage at your partner or children?
- Are you sick and tired of feeling sick and tired… all the time..on the verge of burnout? YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Here is a bit on my story.
Our culture is breeding us to be in a state of frenzy, anger at our to-do lists, impatience with our incompleted project mountain…. There are lots of us who are starting to wonder what is this all about.
The reality is that life is now. This moment. This imperfect moment. Whatever we are occupied in…reading this sentence for instance, is it. We have all the responsibility, all the time and all the choices.
The illusion of busyness, addiction to adrenaline, activity and compulsive working, is that we are on the way to ‘perfection’ where all will be achieved, complete, signed, sealed and delivered and we will finally be able to rest in having ‘finished’. The truth is that the in-tray will still be full when we die.
How we use our time, moment by moment is within our gift. The choosing of what we do and probably even more crucial, how we do it, is our responsibility in each moment. The great news is, that we have choices. We may be driven, we may be impelled to do things a certain way, yet ultimately, we have the choice to decide to change.
As your Slow Coach, you appoint me to support you in making choices that work for you. I’ve been there. I know from experience and it’s a daily learning curve. There are many, many saner ways, friendlier options, and ultimately more successful methods of running our lives.
