Stop rushing, start living

Many of us are racing through life instead of living it ... but why?

We tell ourselves we're running TOWARDS:

🙏🏼 Success
🙏🏼 Happiness
🙏🏼 Adventure

But often that's just a fig leaf ...

The truth is we are running AWAY from ourselves.

We lock into fast forward, filling our lives with busyness, distraction and stimulation, as a way to avoid deep, hard questions, such as:

🤔 Who am I?
🤔 What is my purpose here?
🤔 Am I living the right life for me or just stuck in autopilot?

Dodging such questions puts you on a fast track to burnout. It's also a really good way to waste your one wild and precious life🤦🏻‍♂️

The solution is simple. When life is spinning out of control, don't:

❌ Double down
❌ Speed up
❌ Try to outrun your problems

Do the opposite: Slow down and face those problems.

That's how to work out what really matters to you. And how to build a life worthy of the name....
