Description

Are you addicted to making progress in your life?

Whether it's in your personal life or professional life, sometimes it's okay to take breaks, rest or simply maintain your current situation in life without constantly striving for advancement or improvement.

Sometimes just being where you are is enough, and there's no need to feel pressured to always be moving forward. But of course this is easier said than done a lot of the time, because we live in a world that constantly encourages us to push forward and focus on making serious progress.

I used to be someone that was constantly pushing for progress in all parts of my life but it eventually led to burnout, so allowing yourself periods of stability can be vital for both your mental health and productivity. It took me a long time to realise that focusing on appreciating where you are in life is often just as valuable as constantly chasing after the next goal and the next goal.

Maintaining a healthy balance between progress and rest/stability can ensure that you continue working towards your goals in the long-term and on this episode I explore why it's absolutely okay (and actively encouraged) to sometimes have chapters in your life where you aren't making any real progress at all!
