Hurrying

Every lesson at the conservatory, I ask students at the beginning to review the day so far -- what actions have been satisfying and which ones would they like to change course on?

The satisfying thing that came up for me this week was that I was taking my time with the teaching flow and not rushing to cram info into the lesson. Felt good. And I noticed the other places in my life where I want to hurry, wondering what would happen if I slowed down.

Hurrying feels like I don't trust things to work out that there's not enough TIME to do ALL the things I think I'm SUPPOSED to do. Slowing down a little has helped me see that on that list of 47 things I think I should achieve, maybe 3 sweetly harmonize with the season I'm in.

I invite you to join me in slowing down today and notice what can come through when hurry isn't cementing over things.

Now Thursday, I legit had to power walk to Back Bay station. I was not gonna miss the express 🚂.
