Most people have the hardest time relaxing. We were taught at an early age to ‘do,’ and now we are so addicted to doing that even if we take a break we think about what to do next. Very few ever realize that the priceless treasure in life is ‘Being.’

Great thought.
It still has me pondering Seth, thanks.
You are so right. This image is incredible, shows a kind of sadness and anguish in the eyes. Reblogging.
Reblogged this on red rabbit skills services | skills development consultancy.
Thank you for sharing.
So true!
It is…
And I’m grateful that you are here to teach me sensai…(just kidding).
Oh boy.
Ha! That means I can’t stand myself :b (at times YES).
Laughing. You aren’t alone.
What a fabulous photo. The guy’s eyes are haunted.
They are haunted. Great photography by great photographer.

Let me know if I ever look like this guy. Especially do so if I don’t know it. Relaxing should not be a luxury.
On point Robert. Thanks for sharing.
just be.
( polar opposite of nike’s famous – just do it. approach)
🙂 So true.
How to learn to ‘be’ when taught to ‘do’ and honing that skill for years?
Exactly.
So true and very hard to change.
It is Peggy.
solid advice – I understand the guilt about taking a break – mad really – that said I am much more relaxed since leaving the military – I set my own deadlines and am much more relaxed
I’m still working on it. A long ways to go. Lucky you.
I’ve gotten quite good at relaxing, but it’s taken a lot of practice!
Spread the magic Lulu.
Well said.
It is…
I was going to write a comment, but that would be “doing” and I should be just “being”…but now I’ve got it done, I might as well send it.
And you have me spinning in circles. I have vertigo.
Perfect. And on a Monday. Love it.

Especially on a Monday. Thanks Michael.
Yes.
So very, very true! Just be, should be our goal, but that’s a lot easier wished for than actually done! 🙂
And there is the challenge!
