In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to feel like we’re constantly in a hurry. Whether it’s the fear of losing our jobs, the fear of not being skilled enough, or the fear of missing out on opportunities, many of us find ourselves rushing through life out of a sense of anxiety and pressure. But what if we could break free from this cycle of hurriedness and truly savor the present moment?

I believe that the key to overcoming the urge to rush lies in taking a step back and reevaluating our priorities. Instead of being consumed by the fear of not doing enough or the fear of missing out, we should focus on defining where we want to be and who we want to be. This introspective approach can help us gain clarity and perspective, allowing us to make more intentional choices in our professional and personal lives.

For many people, the workplace can be a source of stress and dissatisfaction. But rather than resigning ourselves to a job that makes us miserable, we should ask ourselves why we’re in that position in the first place.

Is it because we feel trapped and unable to leave, or is it because we haven’t taken the time to truly consider what makes us happy and fulfilled? While it’s not always feasible to simply walk away from a job, we can strive to find ways to make our work environment more enjoyable and aligned with our values. For more tips on creating an enjoyable work environment, head to BrilliantU? to join and participate in our professional development Master Classes.

Ultimately, I believe that life is a marathon, not a sprint. It’s all too easy to get caught up in the rush of our daily lives and forget to appreciate the beauty of the present moment. By slowing down and focusing on what truly brings us joy and fulfillment, we can learn to savor every second and live a more purposeful and meaningful life. So, the next time you feel the urge to rush, take a deep breath and remind yourself to enjoy the journey.

In my new book, Resilience@Work, you are introduced to a character appropriately named “Hurry.” Hurry experiences all of the feelings detailed above and more; but in the end, Hurry is able to unleash his brilliance, become resilient, and learn how to thrive in both life and work. Now, how did he do this? Well, you’ll have to read the book to find out. Pre-order your copy today for our February 6 book launch.
