However he also knows from personal experience that there is always a price to pay if we dont regularly take time simply to pauseto cease activity to treasure quiet time and to discern the deep meaning of lifes little moments. In The Power of Pause Hershey counters the cultural decree that says we cannot lead a fulfilling life unless we are constantly doing something and at least metaphorically speaking going somewhere. Through 52 short chapterseach filled with an inspiring quote a powerful story or meditation and a specific call to actionwe come to realize the profound value of stillness in our days and balance in our lives. We are also challenged by Hersheys meditations to move forward by making intentional decisions rather than reactionary ones and by refocusing our desires and goals on the things that truly count. The Power of Pause encourages all of us regardless of who or where we may be to slow down reconnect with whats important and take back the life we were always intended to have. The Power of Pause will forever change the way you think about and live your life. When you develop the capacity to do less youll find that you can become so much moremore present to those you love and to your own life more in awe of the daily joys and wonders of this world more focused on the little things which are really the big things. If youre ready to be totally surprised by the gift of stillness then its time to experience the power of pausefor the rest of your life!
