As much as I value productivity and growth and achieving goals, I’m recognizing how valuable it is to just rest.

It’s my nature to accomplish all the things on my to-do list, so it’s been a deliberate act of recalibrating and slowing down and drawing boundaries to ensure that my energy levels are sustained. It takes a conscious effort to spend your time in a meaningful way, versus allowing it to be diluted in the minutiae.

Speed is one thing- merely going fast.

Velocity is different. It’s speed with a specific direction.

Let yourself rest. Tune out the excess. Then move with precision towards the things that truly matter.
