In Fog, Slow Down and Simplify

Experiencing grief, particularly when intertwined with betrayal or personal challenges, necessitates a strategic approach to coping. In moments of significant hardship, such as the public moral failure of a leader or personal health struggles, it becomes crucial to slow down and simplify one’s responsibilities and expectations. Just as navigating through fog requires careful movement and reduced speed to avoid accidents, facing emotional turmoil demands a similar method. This process involves quieting distractions and focusing on essential tasks while allowing oneself the grace of reduced expectations. Being gentle with oneself during such times fosters resilience and clarity in navigating through the fog of disorientation.
