Great letter Darius! I think we have forgotten that attention is not an unlimited resource. We give so much of our attention to little (often unnecessary) things during the day that it drains us. In order to be fully focused, conscious resting is extremely important. Otherwise it’s easy for burnout to find us.
A lovely message! A wandering mind, like a wilful toddler, requires care and love. If all our attention is focused on efficiency, we risk sacrificing our effectiveness. Shakespeare was not an efficiency expert, but his effectiveness as a poet is undeniable.
