Ep. 15: Giving Yourself a Break
As part of living an Intelligent Life, Andrew proposes that we need NEW definitions of Productivity… that even in our times of rest or reflection, we are making progress… In fact, Productivity is perhaps overrated…as we NEED the GAPS, the PAUSES, the BREAKS from the routine to have BOTH halves of the Process of Life… In these Breaks, we often discover ourselves, sort out our true feelings, and find a new or renewed VISION for our lives… Only in these GAPS do we find rest, sensitivity, reflection, and simple joy—all essential to an Intelligent Life. Though it is a true success pattern to make written lists, there is also equal value in being “listless” sometimes… Discovering pleasure in “ordinary tasks” such as washing dishes, cleaning, or sitting with coffee. Andrew explores the role of Attitude and why progress often occurs in the “dry” seasons. With stories of Uncle Earl’s slow but ultra-high-quality craftsmanship, a hermitage healing in the Black Forest, and Mother Teresa’s “epic and dry,” he invites you to slow down, listen to Nature, and notice that you might be making more progress than you think.
