What you call 'pause' I call 'silence' or 'stillness'. Even a mild illness that takes me out of the loop for while seems worth being sick. You know, it isn't really about reflecting so much, but allowing that inner wise being back into your life by effortlessly letting go for awhile. Excellent writing, Colin.

What you call ‘pause’ I call ‘silence’ or ‘stillness’. Even a mild illness that takes me out of the loop for while seems worth being sick.

You know, it isn’t really about reflecting so much, but allowing that inner wise being back into your life by effortlessly letting go for awhile.

Excellent writing, Colin.

To be conscious is to understand our circumstances, and decide to respond to them in ways that honour our needs, values and goals. This, as you say, is not always easy to do, especially in the business world. I wish you great success as you take up that challenge. Thanks for saying hello. Hi Shereen,

I can absolutely relate. It's been a decade now into my 'corporate' career but I've been fleeting from one thing to the next unrelated thing trying to find my purpose..it wasn't until I went through a rogenSi program a couple of years ago that I felt my mind completely overhauled and I started to 'consciously' approach my work life. The struggle now is trying to face the reality that being "real" isn't always what's valued in the corporate arena. Lots of food for thought.
