There's so much pressure in society to perform, be productive and effective. We believe every moment of the day must be spent working towards our goals. Taking time off to do nothing is seen as lazy. We are taught that once we achieve a goal, it's onto the next. Taught to strive for things which don't really matter in the end.

The problem with this mindset is that it lacks balance. Rest, reflection and contentment are equally as important as achieving your goals. Ultimately, it's not about the goal, it's about the journey to the goal. Listen to hear Lu and Hazel's thoughts on how we can learn to be more content and enjoy life in the present.
