I had an experience while on my run that helped me see that I probably needed to slow down today. With that thought in mind this episode came and so here we are. I am playing the long game with this and that includes slowing down when I need to.
I am picking up the pace with some things (like the YIELD Today YouTube Channel) and slowing down in others. That is my current strategy, and I'm going to see where it leads. I'll get another interview up on Thursday for sure! Thank you for your patience.

Quotes:
2:17 - "If you force yourself to run through something, or to focus so intensely that you run through an emotion or you run through a beautiful idea or something and don't give it a second thought - you could really miss out on something beautiful there."
5:33 - "We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience."
10:14 - "A lot of things in my life right now are about slowing down so other things can catch up."
14:45 - "If you give it enough time, and new things come into the picture, and you have no idea about what's going to happen."
16:32 - "If I keep up what I am doing with the YouTube Channel and uploading shorts and uploading these other things and really giving it a really good chance of succeeding, like a really, really good chance of succeeding, then we can make a decision. But have I given it the best possible chance to succeed - no. I can't honestly say that."
23:27 - "I believe in really good things adding up to those who are patient, to those who choose to lean on wisdom, and don't try to hush it when it tries to speak to you, and just kind of don't push yourself beyond where you know you ought not to go."
