I thought it was about time to do another wallpaper design. I won’t always to designs with quotes but this one really speaks to me. I really love it. I think we tend to put a lot of value on keeping busy and filling up every spot on our calendar. Maybe in a way it makes us feel important. I think we have it all backwards. We should savor every moment we have and not keep rushing from one thing to the next.
I challenge you to make some time in your calendar this week to just be quite and relax. Go grab a cup of coffee and just sit. Don’t peek at your phone or check facebook. Just be present wherever you are at. It’s pretty refreshing.
And as a way to keep each other accountable, I would love to see what you did to slow down this week. Post a picture to instagram and tag it with #theslowdownproject. I know, I know, I just said no phones so post it before or after. I think sharing pictures will be a fun way to encourage each other to slow down and maybe even give each other some good ideas.
I’ll share some of them next week here on the blog.
You can find the first decorate your desktop design here.
