Hey this is Leo for actualized.org.

And in this episode I'm going to be talking about what I call lifestyle minimalism,

how you can double the happiness in your life by just slowing the fuck down. The pace of your life is totally unacceptable.

Totally unacceptable.

It's too damn fast. It's too hectic. You have no time to

contemplate. You have no time to introspect. You have no time to be aware or

conscious. You have no time to strategize, and you have no time for being,

being as opposed to doing. You're all wrapped up in doing. And this distinction between being and doing is such an important distinction. I'm going to actually shoot a separate episode in future about it. But we're going to gloss over it here and I'm going to show you how the pace of your life is affecting the

quality of your life which is something you've probably never considered before.

As part of your self actualization journey, what we're doing here together, you know, self improvement, this whole journey that we're on to improve ourselves, to grow ourselves, whatever you want to call that. Personal development, self-help, or whatever. As part of this

journey, you're changing your life around, right? You're learning new stuff, you're installing new habits,

you're meditating or whatever, you're changing your relationships,

you're going to the gym more and this kind of stuff, right?

You're eating more healthy.

Okay, that's good.

Now, let me show you a kind of a high-level change, structural change you need to actually make to the

entirety of your life how you live your whole life in your entire lifestyle and

what that is is that you need to make a strategic change and slow down your life.

Strategically, you're doing this strategically.

This is not something you just do for a few days or a few weeks.

This is something like a change, a high-level change you make to your life

from here on out until your death and you need to find ways to do this there's multiple ways that you can do this, not just one way.
