Once I decided to stop trying to become a world-renowned consultant, which involved international travel and books and new ideas every season, I found my true calling: Learning to Simply Be and having time to Do “Nothing.” The ethic that taught us unless we are productive, unless we produce something of value, we are useless. Asking if we enjoyed our day, as you implied in this powerful piece, instead of what we did, is the healthiest way to honor each other. Thank you.

Love this, Liz. Gonna go listen to your convo. Have you read 4000 Weeks by Oliver Burkeman? Fascinating perspective on the “use” of time. Also, I’m taking a meditation class right now. Mindfulness practices are changing the way I experience time in unexpected ways. And I mean UNEXPECTED.
