How to Get in Touch with Your Inner Tortoise

July 25, 2018 By //  by J. Val Hastings

Faster. Sooner. Quicker. It seems like this is what we want.

Many of Today’s Leaders believe that success is closely tied to the speed at which things are done. As a result, many leaders pick up the pace for themselves, as well as for those they lead.

Consider for a moment the value of slowing things down.

Carl Honore, in his Ted Talk titled: In Praise of Slowness, contends that just about everything is better at a slower pace.

If you tend to be more like the Road Runner, consider getting in touch with your inner Tortoise.

  • Slow things down.
  • Remember to breathe.
  • Increase your mindfulness.
  • Switch off your electronics.

All the best to you,
