A lot of us live in a world on nonstop work and focus, but this can often be self-imposed. Learning to set aside time for solitude and calmness can improve your mental state, your relationships, and your productivity. In this episode, Doug and Jeremy discuss solitude and explain how they have come to cultivate it in their lives.
Jeremy and Doug begin by discussing their work, and how it often keeps them from having time to themselves. They discuss some of the boundaries that they have set to make time for solitude, and the areas they still have for improvement. They also explore how solitude (or lack thereof) has affected their relationships with their wives and children.
For detailed show notes, navigate using the time stamps below:
[4:30] This show is going to evolve – Jeremy is interested in bringing on guests from all walks of life to explore different topics and experiences.
[5:44] Today’s episode is about solitude, which can be extremely powerful. In the business sector, things are often high-energy, but it is important to schedule in time to think.
[7:49] One area where Doug has improved at taking time for solitude is turning off his email notifications from 5 PM to 6 AM, which allows him to be more connected with himself and his family.
[14:36] Jeremy and Doug do not have a great work-life balance as they still feel that much of the work falls on them. They see this as a growing pain in their company.
[19:24] Doug has improved at finding solitude, but he still puts others before himself. This is something that Jeremy struggles with too. Doug wants to be there for his loved ones, and this sometimes comes at the expense of his own needs.
[22:40] The age of your children can also play a role in how much solitude you can realistically get. When your kids are young and very dependent on you, it is much harder to take time for yourself.
[27:24] Jeremy went through a period where his work consumed him, and it was a very dark time for him. By learning to take time for himself, he has improved his relationships and mental health.
