Stop & Think.

It’s something we don’t do too often in life. We’re constantly on-the-go, punching through tasks with a get shit done attitude. Sure, we’re knocking things off our to-do list but are we making it harder than it needs to be?

When we take a second to lift our noses off the grindstone, the breath of fresh air allows us to see what’s around us through a different lens.

For the past week, I took an ‘unofficial’ break from my business. Of course, in entrepreneurship, there are never true breaks but nonetheless, I took a step back. Between a full-time job, volunteer commitments, and my personal life, running a company seemed to be the tip of the iceberg on my mental and physical health.

Sometimes in life, we get in the rhythm of go-go-go that we don’t think how can we make things better for us. We’re drowning, so we’re focused on getting to the surface, instead of exploring the waters beneath us for another way out.

When was the last time, you sat down and strategically thought about your life, where you devote your time, and how you could optimize it?

This sounds Type A to the max but by designing your life, you are freeing yourself from stress and grinding routines.

Sorry, these aren’t always perfect or finished… 😅 But that’s the nature of our five-minute challenge. We have exactly five minutes — no more, no less — to make an impact on YOU!

We don’t always have time to capitalize, spell correctly, or proofread. We write, save, and publish after 300 seconds. That’s it. Simple.
