Out of the Fire

Power of the Pause


Listen Later

Have you paused lately?

This mini comeback episode is very dear to me. I will talk about today the lessons that I learned from pressing the pause button in my life and the reasons you probably should be pressing it too. I want you to realize that taking a break does not mean you’ve stopped being productive. You can actually be more productive and even more alive if you’re taking some time off and reflect on what really matters to you. 

Taking a break does not mean quitting your responsibilities. It can be as simple as taking a 10-minute walk in the park or reading a book. I will talk about the things that you can do after you press the pause button and some practical tips on how you can tell your true priorities in your life. 

Let’s listen to this episode to learn the power of the pause!
