As we push through the last stretch of the year, many of us are caught in a relentless "rush, rush, rush, busy, busy, busy" cycle. There's the pressure to tick every box, meet every deadline, and make it through the end of the year in one piece. But, as tempting as it is to just power through, fuelled by sheer determination, here's the irony: this frantic pace could be costing you valuable time.
These moments-the ones we feel we simply don't have time to communicate well-are precisely the times when good communication is most critical. The solution? Slow down to go fast.
A well-timed pause allows you to respond thoughtfully, not impulsively. Quick reactions might feel efficient at the moment, but they often lead to more headaches down the line.
By "slow down," I'm not suggesting adding extra tasks to your calendar, forgetting about your deadlines, or squeezing in more meetings. It's about pausing-just briefly-to self-regulate and communicate thoughtfully.
