Sorry, but I have another Taoism thought! One cannot come to know the Tao if one is in perpetual motion, running ahead and keeping up with all the busy, busy things in the world. Now, if you’re not interested in coming to know the Tao, then replace “Tao” with “peace” or “self-fulfillment” or “understanding.” The point of the concept is that taking time to allow stillness to settle into your inner being allows for the type of contemplation and purposeful meditation that helps make good leaders great. I word I have come to truly appreciate and value these past few months is “intention.” Stillness and purposeful meditation allow us to move through our lives with intention, taking deliberate action and engaging in deliberate behaviors that make every minute of our day a step towards our goals. Time cannot be saved; it can only be spent. The key is how you spend it. “Wisely” and “unwisely” are the only options. You are the judge, in the end, but I would offer that time spent on self, on inviting stillness into your life, is a wise investment, indeed.
