Rest, break, pause, unwind, sleep... These words can be not only daunting, but downright terrifying for many of us (and yes, I've been there myself) 🚨 For some, the mere thought of taking a break leads to an internal battle. We become paralyzed by the fear that taking a break might label us as a: "failure," "underachiever," "mediocre," etc. 😱 We are terrified that: - We will fall behind 🏃 - We are not being strong enough to endure 😓 - We are being lazy 😴 So what do we do then? - We "push through" 💪 - We become trapped in a relentless cycle, insisting it's better not to take a break 🔄 When our dopamine is off the charts, our mind and body "relish" in the sensation. But when we finally slow down, we pay the price, and we may find ourselves running in overdrive simply to avoid the pain... Not only the physical one but also the emotional and mental pain of NOT knowing who we are when we're NOT: - Performing, - Over-delivering, or - Producing 😕 Don't get me wrong: doing and performing are essential for our existence. However, it's when we make performance the basis of our identity that things start to get convoluted. 🎭 Our system starts to run in overdrive, and we forget the wisdom found when we slow down: - We discern if the path we're on is even ours 🛤️ - We notice if our values are our own or someone else's 💭 - We realize the unnecessary devotion to irrelevant people or circumstances 🕰️ - We start "seeing" ourselves, rather than the performer 🦋 ... We finally understand that to GO "faster," "harder," or "farther," we must slow down first. 🧘♂️🌱 When you hear (read) the word "rest," what comes to mind? What's your first reaction? #equilibrium #growthmindset #slowdown #performance #leadership
