Permission to Pause

I've learned that I need to pause. I learned that the organization was better when I paused - when I paused to rest, to move, to learn, to reflect. I paused so that I could center myself and respond from a place of groundedness, of confidence, of knowing.

Pausing wasn't easy. Its's not written in policy or often accepted in our society.

And yet, pausing is so important.
