Slow Down Challenge

 

After working very hard yesterday, completely redrafting the mainstream novel I'm now sending out to seek an agent, I needed a change of focus. Right on time, I received a new post from Jeff Goins, who I follow online. He mentioned his new challenge, Slow Down, which was partly inspired after the birth of his first baby and his pleasure in being a father.

I'm a great believer in taking time to enjoy the beauty and nature around us but this is a focused challenge over five days, although I dare say they don't have to be consecutive days. So in between the next lot of work, I'm aiming to follow Jeff's challenge - even ten minutes a day will take the focus away from the computer and social media. I'm sure the body and mind will thank me for it!

You can check out the Slow Down Challenge if you want to take part. The illustration above is from the first day's challenge and there are suggestions of how to take time to notice those 'other things' on Jeff's post.

Have a relaxing weekend,
Rosemary
