Be-ing

Be-ing

Sometimes you have to let the dust settle. It takes down-time to be productive, to adapt, to make a difference. But down-time isn't necessarily inactive — it's a disconnect from busy. Busy doesn't mean productive. It means busy.

There is no real multitasking. Just small segmented sections of busy. Take a moment, a small break from busy and expectations of busy-ness. Make a small change in location if necessary.

Slow your breathing. Chill for a moment. Take inventory of your thoughts and observe what you are thinking. See the implied motives and imagined consequences, and where necessary make adjustments. Let it sink in. Let the busy-ness dissolve. Step into the new and adjust your be-ing.
