2159: Stop and Enjoy the Biscuit by Chris Lovett of Less Is Progress on Slowing Down & Mindfulness
Chris Lovett of Less Is Progress talks slowing down and enjoying life mindfullyEpisode 2159: Stop and Enjoy the Biscuit by Chris Lovett of Less Is Progress on Slowing Down & MindfulnessChris Lovett is a minimalist, life coach, speaker and career mentor but it didn't used to be that way. Quite content drifting through life in the comfort zone, he was collecting stuff, not exactly the stuff he wanted to collect but stuff none the less. Chris had a whole bunch of aspirations but managed to build a prison around them with a stack of unconscious decisions made down the years. His collection included debt, too many clothes, negative self fulfilling prophecies, assumptions, comparisons, unused 'just in case' items and a fixed mindset that kept me at just the right level of safe. He lived month to month but he wasn't really living at all.The original post is located here: https://www.lessisprogress.com/post/stop-and-enjoy-the-biscuit Visit Me Online at OLDPodcast.com Interested in advertising on the show?
