Episode 16: Tactical Pauses

In today's world of buzzwords like "speed-to-market," " efficiency-gains," and "high-speed, low-drag," the concept of stopping the madness to smell the roses seems...out-of-place.

But guess what - that's where magic happens.

We owe it to ourselves to take a moment from time-to-time, look around us, and take a tactical pause. This can be for as long or as short as you need it, and should provide an opportunity to be present, drink everything in, and clear your mind before moving forward. You may take a tactical pause for a few minutes before making a big decision, for a few hours to attend a child's sporting event at the end of a long work day, or (in my case regarding this podcast), for a few years while you figure out who you want to be in this life.

I'm thrilled to be back in the saddle after my own two-year tactical pause. But as with all pauses - there comes a time to push play again.
