June 2008, PACE
As those required to “create-on-demand” it can be difficult to maintain anything resembling a healthy “pace” in our lives. Sometimes it can feel like we’re hitting the same note over-and-over again and our RPM’s are constantly revved to the max.
In this series we’re taking look at the four components of healthy pace - PAUSE, RUN, WORK and PLAY - and offering some highly practical tips and practices that you and your teams can build into your schedules to help facilitate long-term brilliance, health and viability. (Note: the “play” podcast will be released during the second week of June.)
