The Internal Drive of Urgency - Mind Shift Podcast #002
Time is perceived differently by people who have urgency. When you lack urgency, time just flies. It just moves faster than you can keep up with. One of the things that people say to me all the time is, you seem so calm. You seem to have an incredible sense of peace or calm, even when there's a crisis. That is because I live my life with urgency. Time is never moving to me faster than I'm moving. When you have urgency, you're moving faster than time.
A lot of times crisis become urgent because it's a cris. But there are other things that are in life that are super important and you have to bring the urgency to it because it's not a crisis. And let's say, for instance, it's not a crisis that I don't work out today, but it might be urgent because if I don't work out, it will become a crisis with my health.
And so the challenge sometimes is that it seems that crisis is the only way many people are motivated. But if you have urgency, you do not need a crisis to live your life doing the important things.
Urgency has to be an internal driver.
