Sitting on a sofa sipping coffee and not doing work or thinking about it is a rare moment if you are an A-type person. The only other time this happens is hopefully when you meditate, otherwise, it is constantly thinking about work for you. It is difficult to switch off for A-type personalities.
However, all of us who are A-type people need to switch off. Once when I was in Cape Town after going through several beaches and still thinking about work, I came to a spot; I don’t quite know when that spot was, but my mind wandered away from work. Ironically when that switch happened, I had some of my best ideas of work.
The message for me was sometimes you have to slow down to speed up!
