Do You Just Move Yourself Or Are You Being Transformed?
High-stress needs high-recovery
People usually get the sense that constant movement and an 18-hour/day full schedule, are the factors that define a person as successful. We live in a world where millions of people run a continuous sprint during their day, to prove (to themselves and others) that they are worthy. They have chosen — consciously or unconsciously — only one side of the dipole “movement-immobility”. This way, they are always in imbalance.
What matters more than being in action, is being effective.
Effectiveness
Effectiveness isn’t about how many hours you work, but what are your results. Results depend on many factors, such as creativity, ability to concentrate, flexibility, resilience, and more. Of course, if you are lazy and you’re lying on a couch all day every day, there is no effectiveness either. But by focusing only on just being active, you just do things automatically, weakening body and mind, scattering energy that could be targeted and more efficient.
So, instead of just counting hours of work, ask yourself:
- How much further did I get, regarding the case I worked on today?
