Deliberately Slow: The Art of Slowing Down
Manage episode 423925720 series 3532825
In this episode of The Balanced Leader Podcast, I discuss the constant rush many leaders experience and the importance of slowing down for overall wellbeing and effective leadership.
I talk about my own personal struggles with always being in a hurry and highlight the benefits of adopting a slower pace, including improved mental clarity, emotional intelligence, and problem-solving abilities. I outline some of the practical tips that have helped me, including practicing mindfulness, scheduling regular breaks, and unplugging from technology.
Maybe there's some deeper work we need to be doing, to fully understand why we feel the need to be constantly rushing. And maybe, there is more of an art to slowing down than just the science!
