Today, we’re going to talk about the Art of Doing Nothing, actively waiting, escaping toxic hustle culture, and how this can transform your life with ADHD.
We know that “actively waiting” sounds like an oxymoron; however, doing nothing is often incredibly hard. On the other hand, mastering this skill will give you incredible results.
Jill and I have been talking about and practicing "doing nothing" for years, and we’ve found it to be transformational in reducing anxiety, avoiding problems, and, paradoxically, improving productivity.
In summary, doing nothing isn’t nothing. The good stuff is inside of us. Not outside of us. And we can only find out what’s inside, by being silent, reflecting, journaling, and listening to ourselves.
First, we’ll define the Art of Doing Nothing and talk about why U.S. hustle culture mislabels it as laziness.
Next, we’ll get into some examples of when action is the wrong choice (especially when we act out of anxiety and stress)–such as when Luke hosted a dysfunctional teenage exchange student to try and help his family's income (oops!) or when Jill tried to fix a toxic workplace by hustling harder (double oops).
Finally, we discuss Brazilian culture vs. U.S. culture, and the differences in how they view relaxing and the enjoyment of life.
We really love the discussion in this episode. So far, it's our favorite! We hope you enjoy it too.
