Lots of entrepreneurs run their life and business on the fast lane - 18-hour work days, traveling a lot, and no weekends.
Maybe you should thinking about slowing down - relaxing a bit. Being a bit laid-back is not a bad thing.
You see, when you life your life on high speed, you always lose focus on one thing: to think.
You can’t think well if you life on the fast lane. That’s humane and natural. People need to slow down and give time for the mind to settle and think creatively about something. To see the big picture, you have to stop doing what you are doing, and start viewing your life and your business from bird eyes view.
The benefit of slowing down
There are some apparent benefits of slowing down your life’s pace:
- Slowing down allows you to see things better - more details, more accurate - allowing you to make more ‘correct’ decision.
- Slowing down allows you to absorb the experience you have, so in the future you can live your life more efficiently and effectively.
- Slowing down enables you to set better depth of your business strategy (Sorry Seth Godin, your Blink! is cool - I practice it a lot - but sometimes deep thinking are needed in business decision making :D)
- Slowing down takes pressure off you - Although most entrepreneurs tend to perform well under pressure, taking an occasional off is rewarding - and is proven to actually give boost to entrepreneurs’ productivity.
