scheduling creates freedom
schedule rest
schedule doing nothing
schedule being completely locked in
schedule time to eat
schedule time to bullshit
schedule time to see family and loved ones
schedule time to look after your health
you're not managing time, but your life…
@POPSlockndropit what my parents said they did and they had 7 kids
seems to be a common belief that when you schedule that means that nothing can ever be moved when chaos arises
having things laid out allows for better management of things like kids, emergencies etc

tldr: normalize slowness, because it often represents presence—a scarce resource in our always going culture that rewards hustle and punishes reflection
slowness is a way to adjust your grip on life, on the moment you’re in. pause. breathe. look around. proceed. there’s no rush!
their slowness is a reflection of their comfort with doing things the way they think they should be done.
when we are not rushing, we see things clearly. when we are rushing, we miss important details.
slowness is a manifestation of having our full attention present.
we’re trained to look down on slowness
but if the most thoughtful people use slowness to navigate life with care—perhaps we should question our tendency to live in haste which often causes us to miss things by being so focused on the next moment that we forget to be where we are
