Achieving employee buy-in often hinges less on finding a better strategy and more on telling a better story about the one you have. Check out the first part of my conversation with MacDonald on the latest episode of Let Go & Lead!

5 minutes twice a day, head awake, eyes closed, untethered from electronics. Just sit and listen to your breath. Unbelievably, that little activity could change your life by bringing stressor hormones to their appropriate level, resetting your energy level and giving you insights from your vast mind that are pure genius.

Kids have it right. We do better in school (at work) if we rest and play. It’s true for the adult brain too. Every day. Throughout the day.

Daydreaming is what humans do really well - it's when we create and invent the future. Make sure to record your mental wandering thoughts. Focus, however, is a challenge for humans. It's where we execute what we invent, and it's more energy intensive for our brain than daydreaming. Focus a few hours and mentally wander a few hours every day with intention and see what crops up!! I bet it looks like success.

nature every day.

Find downtime today; no matter how small. Reframe your idea of Monday. We are meant to rest and run. Rest and run and repeat. Lay out your rests and runs for the week. The work week should not be a marathon; just a series of runs and rests. Don't save rest for the weekend.
