\u201cWhen feeling urgent, you must slow down.\u201d<\/span><\/i> – Mark Nepo<\/span><\/p>\n

Wait, what?!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re like so many of us, the idea of slowing down when you feel as if everything in your body, mind, and life is on fast forward is counterintuitive. Seems ludicrous, right? I totally get it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Still, hear me out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a life coach, some of the most frequent requests I hear are from folks seeking support with being more productive, managing their time better, and achieving major life goals. Clearly, these outcomes are significant, even life changing.\u00a0 <\/span>I assure you: I am Here. For. It.<\/span><\/p>\n

And: before tackling those goals, I first always find out what\u2019s going on with their wellbeing.\u00a0<\/span>Why, you may ask? What does your wellbeing have to do with being able to get stuff done?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s an example. Imagine you\u2019re working on a project that\u2019s really meaningful to you. You are getting the bare minimum (or less) of sleep, over or under eating, frequently arguing with your loved ones, and feel out of alignment with your own value system. How do you predict it would go with that project?<\/span><\/p>\n

Take two: Imagine you are working on that same project. You are regularly getting plenty of quality rest, are consistently well-nourished and hydrated, feel thoroughly supported by your loved ones and community, and feel in alignment with your own personal values and standards. In this similar but dramatically different scenario, how do you predict it would go?<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know about you, but I envision two very different outcomes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
