Page 1: Table talk #1  - being successful without being exhausted

A man and woman were splitting wood all day. That evening, noticing that her pile was much larger than his, he said “How could that be? You took breaks while I worked continuously from dawn to dusk.” She responded, “What you didn’t see was that during every break, I was sharpening my saw.” Trying to keep up with the breakneck pace of life in our demanding 24/7 world is exhausting. Employers, employees, committees, spouses, children, e-mails, texts, phone calls, meetings, projects, problems, and opportunities can run us ragged. It seems as though we have no choice but to keep running at light speed.

But wait. What about sharpening the saw? Must we run nonstop until we collapse exhausted? No, we don’t. So let’s find a better way: Join me to explore how to work with energy and go home with energy too. Come to Table Talk for introspection, inspiration, and integration around “Being Successful without Being Exhausted.”

Stop running through life exhausted.
