MORE is not always the answer...
Tweet · Sep 22, 2025
There are seasons in your life that you will need to just be still.
For most of us here that’s really difficult.
We’re ambitious and driven and want MORE out of life.
BUT, it is okay, in fact it’s needed and NECESSARY to pause what you’re doing and just sit.
I’m using the word “sit”, but what I’m really referring to is taking a moment to brush off the distractions that are stopping you from processing the important things.
This is what I think is so necessary and something that I have not done a great job of recently.
I do all the things. I add everything to my plate o can. I say yes to almost everything… and now, I’m overflowing.
But I recognize that and I’m trying to be really intentional about what my next moves are.
So I’m sitting with it.
Whatever you have going on, MORE is not always the answer. As much as we want it to be.
Take time to ask yourself the tough questions.
what fires you up
What would you regret not doing
What does your perfect day look like
Where do you feel most alive
What’s your zone of genius
What would your 80 year old self tell your current self
These are not easy to answer and I don’t expect you to know them all, but just going through the process of pausing and thinking through all of these things is huge. Most of us ignore and add MORE.
I’ll leave you with this one that we can cover more at a later time —
Do you genuinely feel that what you’re doing right now with your life is living out your purpose?
That’s super heavy. And I’m wrestling with it as well. But think through that and let me know your thoughts.
