When was the last time you kicked back, did absolutely nothing and investigated what it feels like to be bored? 

I'm guessing you might be challenged to pinpoint the time.

Avoiding boredom, staying busy, working longer hours, not taking care of yourself and celebrating that you can function on less sleep, won't help you achieve your goals faster.

Living our lives in this way, won't serve us, or others well. And in the long run it's likely going to cause illness and burnout.

Why then, do so many of us get stuck on this hamster wheel that keeps going faster and faster and doesn't stop unless we choose to stop it - or worse - when we're forced to?
