This week my intention is to take things in slowly especially since I have a busy week ahead. “Joy comes to us in ordinary moments. We risk missing out when we get too busy chasing down the extraordinary.”—Brene Brown

In those moments when I realize I have a lot on my plate, I get anxious. Don’t we all? But when I recognize that anxiety, I stop to pause and take a few deep breaths. With that, I slow down the chase and, instead, I just take things in as they come, in stride.

It’s that easy. Just slow down.
