Don’t work hard, go deep


It’s not about hard work in terms of volume of hours spent engage in activities. 

It is about work less volume but going deeper into focused work so that we have more time for guilt free leisure and relaxation. 

Putting things off, often occurs as we find work a chore and a lengthy interruption to the things we really want to do with family and friends. 

Deep focused work centred on our priorities and goals creates our best work. This leads to greater value, a greater sense of fulfilment and thus better wellness. 
Also, by doing deep work we get more done in a shorter time allowing more leisure time, more relaxation and thus feeling better and therefore more equipped to work better. 

So being more productive leads to working less which leads to more time to relax, recharge and that leads to more productive and less and less procrastination. 

Work with purpose and focus not long resent-filled days. 

We will f@!k-up occasionally

Occasionally we will:-

-Shout
-Cry
-Get angry
-Get frustrated
-Be jealous
-Tell a lie
-Be rude
-Forget something important
-Be judgemental
-Be unkind
-Interrupt
-Not listen

Occasionally, we all fuck up.

It’s OK. It’s more than OK, you and me, we are humans, not machines.

Don’t be harsh on yourself and don’t fall into the self-help guru spell of constantly being so strict on yourself, that you must stick to the plan or you are a failure, a slacker, lazy, procrastinator and a bad person.

Lighten up.

The choice we all have is how to behave for the majority of the time.

However, chill about the occasional slip, none of us set out to mess up. We are all good, worthy people.

Be kind to you.
