We live in a world that rewards speed — fast work, fast success, fast results.
But my mind needed slow.
This chapter started when burnout arrived without warning.
My thoughts were cluttered, my energy drained, my creativity silent.
So I did something I never gave myself permission to do: I paused.
I learned to rest without guilt.
I learned that productivity doesn’t define me — presence does.
I learned that slowing down is not a weakness but a strategy.
Today, when life moves too fast, I remind myself: even flowers don’t bloom all year.
