Giving space is one of the most important skills to master.
No, it’s not about giving space to others. It’s about giving space to yourself.
Space between the mind and the heart. Space for no thinking, no action, just being.
Many people are occupied with daily tasks, travels, meetings, calls, and emails to answer. There is no space. Everything is always ‘’ON’’.
How to manage stress better and find more inner balance? The way to achieve this is not by keeping the machine ON. It’s about giving space and switching OFF.
The space between the mind and heart is where creativity, inspiration, self-awareness, peace, insight, ideas, dreams and joy happen.
In our world today, we are in a movement of mindfulness. Mindfulness brings space between the heart and the mind. That’s why it is so powerful. Being mindful is not everything, but it is a door opener.
Mindfulness is one way.
Self-reflection is another way.
Working with a coach, mentor, advisor, or friend is another way.
The goal is to find and create so much space between your mind (your Suit) and your heart (your Monk), that you BECOME your heart. Then use your mind to get things done in meetings, with daily tasks, managing responsibilities, and at the end of the day after a long day of work, return back to the heart and rest.
Do you know anyone who has achieved this balance in business? What would that look like?
Shouldn’t we all live and lead this way? What are the consequences of not living this way?
Many unspoken answers that still need revealing.
The question is where do you still need to create space in your life to connect more with your heart?
