“Stop trying to prove something to others. Reclaim your time and reclaim your humanity.” – Celeste Headlee

?‍♀️ Do you ever feel “absent present?” Many psychologists believe modern society suffers from a state of split consciousness, in which we’re never fully engaged with what we’re doing or saying. We constantly judge our days based on how efficient we think they are, not how fulfilling they are.

⏱ We’re busy all the time, but is efficiency just an illusion? According to Celeste Headlee, yes.

? A champion of the Do Nothing Revolution, Celeste is an award-winning journalist and communication and human nature expert. She believes humans are working more instead of less, living harder rather than smarter, and becoming lonelier and more anxious. In a constant pursuit to reach peak performance, we’re sabotaging our well-being.

? An inspiring keynote whose TED Talk, “Ten Ways to Have Better Conversations,” has been viewed more than 19 million times, Celeste enlightens her audiences to realize that we’re reaching for a bar that keeps moving higher. We work feverishly to make ourselves happier. Instead, we should measure time in terms of meaning and fulfillment. From center stage, she inspires audiences to regain control over their lives, invest in quality idle time, focus on end goals instead of mean goals, and return to a way of life that allows people to truly thrive.
