I wouldn’t normally write a post based on time out, but a trip to the Isles of Scilly gives a lot of headspace away from the daily noise of business life.
Most of us are used to seeing other people constantly and having conversations with them throughout the day.
However, my wife and I took a walk around the island of St Mary’s and for a period of about 3 hours, apart from talking between ourselves, we saw no other humans, and the only other conversation was with a fearless thrush.
Before you call for a therapist, consider when was the last time you could listen to nature, gaze at the sea and feel the wind (and a brief shower) with absolutely no other distractions?
And it brought in some welcome fresh perspectives – not least the urge to write a post about it!
Get out there and let nature do a little whispering in your head. It can probably share some ideas that you might not have thought about.
