There is more to life than getting things done
Machines are designed to run constantly; people aren't. Our coping mechanisms are meditation apps, weekend breaks and annual holidays, but things soon revert. To prosper, we need a more sustainable approach -- an ability to pause. Do Pause looks at the importance of this subtle yet powerful idea to communication, creativity, relationships -- as well as our wellbeing and sanity. With practical tools to help you create new habits or make more significant lifestyle choices, you'll discover ways to:- Reset and regenerate
- Deepen your thinking and experiences
- Take back control of your time
- Reconnect with other people - and yourself
Author Biography
Robert Poynton lives in an off-grid, solar-powered house just outside the small town of Arenas de San Pedro in rural Spain. By way of contrast, he also spends a significant amount of time in Oxford, where he is an Associate Fellow of the Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford. His work there is practical not academic - he designs and runs executive education programs, helping senior leaders understand and work with complex change, via a playful approach developed from improvisational theatre. Many of his friends regard his entire career as one long pause. He is also the author of Do Improvise (Do Books, 2013) and Do Conversation (Do Books, 2024).
