When was the last time you stopped for a moment and took a look around you and the pace everything seems to be moving at? Life seems pretty fast? Months feel like weeks, weeks like days, and days like hours. And 2018 is almost over.
We’re always trying to beat time when in reality time has already figured itself out and knows nothing can beat it. We’re constantly chasing the next thing, being busy doing something, or just filling up our calendars, to-do list, and notebooks with xyz simply to pretend we are being “productive”.
For once, we should slow down. Not only because the year is about to finish and would be an ideal moment to reflect, but also because as we slow down and think about ourselves – our careers, relationships, paths, and life, we can decide what worked well and what we should stop doing because it hasn’t helped us to get where we dream of getting. Slowing down can also let our mind imagine and lead us to think more clearly about where we want to go in the future.
It’s always a good moment to slow down and reconsider, change or adopt new habits, and go on to work on what we really want to get out of life — our life purpose.
