Quotes to ponder:

"Constantly reacting to the world around us gives us no time to breathe."

"Even if you just sit for one hour in the morning to strategize the best way to handle your responsibilities, you can regain a sense of command over your life."

"Actively taking the time back to think, delegate with colleagues, and plan time off will help end the exhausting cycle of reactivity."
