Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop 7/7: Power in the Pause #SlowDownSunday

What if slowing down is the very thing that takes you further?
Athletes know it. The universe knows it. And deep down, so do you.

Rivers don’t rush all the time. They rest in calm, deep pools. That’s where their power builds.
Your momentum works the same way.

The African proverb says: Every morning the lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest antelope. Every morning the antelope wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest lion. Both move with purpose. But neither can sprint forever. Even the strongest pause.

"Be still, and know that I am God." – Psalm 46:10
That’s not weakness. That’s strength in stillness.

Astrophysics backs it up. Pulsar stars spin so fast they look frozen in space. At the center of black holes, time itself stops. The cosmos is teaching you — stillness is power under control.

Kendrick Lamar asked, “If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?” 🌸
Real growth happens in the quiet. In the dark. In the pauses you don’t post about.

And as Denzel Washington reminds us, “You pray for rain, you gotta deal with mud too.” The mud moments matter. That’s where you learn, where you grow, where you sharpen.

High Performer Tip: Today, block ten minutes. No screens. No noise. No pressure. Just breathe. Pray. Meditate. Stretch. Be still. That pause will fuel your comeback.

So let me ask you: where are you running on empty? And what would happen if you gave yourself permission to pause?

Remember this. Slow down or break down. Rest is not weakness. It’s strategy. The pause is the play.

Can’t stop, won’t stop. The power is in the pause.
