I need you to stop and do less.

In a new world where stopping, taking a moment, and putting in the effort to slow down intentionally is a radical act, it has also become a near impossible one. We’ve got plenty stacked against us. The endless push and pull of maximized productivity. Platforms and tools that demand efficiency, forcing us to push the baseline of output to outrageous distances. And society subliminally applying these expectations far outside their dedicated spaces of workflow, now allowing it to seep into every single aspect of their existence. It may be easy to declare that we want to live a slower life, but it sure isn’t easy to actually go forth and do that when the odds are stacking against us at alarming rates.

So, in this piece, let me remind you. The whole point of slowing down? Is to do less. Let’s talk about it.
