Yes limited time really focuses my energy into essential activities for my wellbeing. Thanks you for these great insights. 🙏

Awesome.

Hi Jon-- thank you🙏
Food for thought. I too have many interests and at times have judged myself unkindly for not choosing just one. But that doesn't seem to be my lot. I like exploring, I am a seeker. I so appreciate your wisdom-sharing.

Another great one by Jon Brooks

Jon, it’s so fun to listen to your perspectives and ideas! For a long time, I’ve had a little catchphrase, “it’s what you value,” which actually was uttered by my younger sister, probably 45 years ago. It’s been a great illuminator to me, making it easier to choose what to do, where to go, what to carry forward, what to leave behind, what to shrug off and what to struggle for.
This talk resonated strongly for me.
Thank you!
