Leadership life fit: Stop and Smell the Rosesdschon
In this adaptation from “Five Ways to Find Time to Pause” ( https://www.mindful.org/five-ways-jumpstart-your-day/), learn how to be more present in your day.
1. Kicking the “Busyness”
Addiction for a Better Fit
Dr. Dana Schon,
Professional Learning Director
2.
3. The “busyness” addiction (a mindset):
A drive to succeed and a compulsion to get more done,
which ironically, is counterproductive because there is
always more to do.
People become addicted to feelings of exhilaration and
importance at having completed many tasks (being
busy), but such feelings are illusory because the to-do
list never ends.
In the name of “being busy,” addicts sacrifice time with
families and colleagues; and their own physical, spiritual,
and mental health suffers.
4.
5. Are you…
Plugged-in 24/7?
Always challenged to see how many tasks you can complete in the shortest
amount of time?
Failing to slow down?
Always multi-tasking?
So focused on tasks and being “busy” that you lose touch with your
surroundings? Your relationships? Yourself?
Consumed by escalating demands—Feeling like you could always do more
professional reading, more professional writing, more observations, more
communication, more, more, more?
Avoiding times of quiet and solitude?
Anxious and uncomfortable in those moments when you do find yourself
with nothing to do?
Failing to be present in the moment?
Feeling guilty about saying “no” or “doing nothing”?
6.
7. A feeling of indifference or numbing of feelings
Depression
Lack of enjoyment
Frustration at the inability to keep the pace of
the ever-growing to-do list
Disconnection from people we care about
Ineffective use of time due to feelings of being
overwhelmed—uncertain where to start
Fragmentation—lack of cohesion in our day-day
lives and work

10. Just Say NO!
“Thanks for asking, but no, I simply can’t.”
“I appreciate that you asked, but no, I am unable
to at this time.”
“I’m sorry, no.”
All the mistakes I ever made in my life were when I
wanted to say No, and said Yes.
~Moss Hart
11. Do one thing at a time.
Try it just for today! If you are a multi-tasker, you
will need practice to change your behavior! Start
with small steps—one day.
Be present in every moment. Focus solely on the
person with whom you engage in conversation.
Drive without using your Bluetooth (or any
device). Watch t.v. without reading, writing, or
engaging in some other task. Be present!
12.
13. Question your beliefs. Write down all your
beliefs about relaxation, work, multi-
tasking, busyness, etc. and question
them. What mental models are keeping you
consumed by “busyness”?
14. Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening
to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.
~Pooh's Little Instruction Book, inspired by A.A. Milne
15. Schedule down time.
Honor your commitments to yourself. If you
commit to leaving work at 5:30, do it. This means
leaving the work, too! No cheating!
Make a date with a significant other or good
friend.
Unplug. Power down.
