No matter where you are in your entrepreneurial journey, it\u2019s in down time that you have a chance to reflect, form new ideas, or just enjoy yourself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">You\u2019ve probably heard stories of people who came up with successful <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/201588\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"http:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/201588\">business ideas<\/a> when they slowed down and stopped thinking too hard. But on a more practical level the question is, with so many things you need to do each day to keep your business on track, how do you slow down but keep the ability to respond quickly to competitors and market conditions?<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">An answer you may have heard before is to simply be present and focus on each moment of your life as it comes. But, that\u2019s much easier said than done when your phone or laptop puts the office at your fingertips.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Here are eight things you can do right away to be more present and slow down time. Each of them is sure to make you feel refreshed, and just might lead to your next big idea.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">1. Take a deep breath (or\u00a010)<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Taking time to focus on breathing helps you slow down your mind and body. It\u2019s well-documented that the practice of meditative breathing exercises <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/400962\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/400962\">helps reduce anxiety<\/a>, but you don\u2019t need to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown to reap the benefits of deep breathing. In fact, making your breathing a priority, even for just a minute or two a day, can help you clear your head, focus your thoughts and be more <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/370881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/370881\">confident<\/a> and efficient as a result. If you can, make sure you take deep breaths even while working at your laptop or on your phone.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">2. Spend time in\u00a0nature<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">This one might be easier said than done, especially if you live in a city, but the truth is that nature is everywhere. You just have to notice it. If you live in a tall building, see if it\u2019s possible to spend 30 minutes on the roof at night staring at the stars (or just look out your window). Take a five- or 10-minute walk to your local park, and look up at the trees. This can be just as grounding (or more) as a hike in the mountains with the right mindset.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Like anything else that keeps you present, the trick is to focus on the sensory experience: Breathe in and smell the fresh air. Feel the wind on your skin, hear it blow and rustle the leaves on the ground.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">3. Put your phone\u00a0away<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">The benefits of <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/332213\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/332213\">unplugging<\/a> are well documented, so why do we still spend so much time glued to our phones? For many of us, it is the need to stay up-to-date on what\u2019s going on in the world. The \u201cworld\u201d can be any information that technology puts at our fingertips, like that new law that passed, what\u2019s going on in the Middle East, or social media pictures of a friend\u2019s baby. These minute-by-minute updates, whether they be significant or silly, keep us in constant motion and make the world move a bit too fast at times.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">That\u2019s why one of the most effective ways you can slow down your life is to put down your phone. Whether you dedicate an hour or two each day to totally unplug, or resolve not to check your phone until you\u2019ve had your morning coffee, incorporate moments into your day when you\u2019re not fixated on the world of your phone. This will help you truly spend time alone with yourself and slow things down.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">4. Fall in love with\u00a0food<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">This is my favorite. While you\u2019ve got your phone put away, one easy and delicious way to slow down is to let yourself revel in the experience of cooking and eating. A quick sandwich at your desk might fill your stomach, but it won\u2019t fill your heart with the joy that food can bring when you take the time to make and eat it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Learn recipes through a friend, family member or class. You\u2019ll be amazed that you can spend 30\u201345 minutes creating a meal and don\u2019t even have to look at your phone. Also, whenever you can throughout the day, spend 10 minutes focused on your food without any other stimulation. Eat slowly and chew thoroughly, noticing the tastes. Scrolling through Instagram can wait.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">5. Listen<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Taking the time to listen is one of the most rewarding ways to slow down. It can be to music, conversation or the sound of leaves rustling in the wind. The important thing is that you give listening your undivided attention.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">One fun way to do this with music is to get a <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/240629\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/240629\">turntable<\/a> and listen the old fashioned way. You can also take a walk with a friend and dedicate yourself completely to listening to what they have to say. Not only will this work as a much needed distraction from everything going on in your head, but it can help you build <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/304206\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/304206\">emotional intelligence<\/a> and strengthen a relationship with the friend by making them feel heard.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">6. Move your\u00a0body<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Sometimes the best way to slow down your life is to speed up your heart. Going for a run or <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/334237\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/334237\">getting a vigorous workout<\/a> gives you a chance to focus on nothing but yourself and your body. I had one colleague who would put on her headphones, go to the break room and dance for 10 minutes. She didn\u2019t care if anyone walked in on her, which always impressed me. She said it was worth it because it built her endurance, preparing her for going out dancing on Friday or Saturday night. If you try one of these practices, your future self will thank you for the lasting energy and extra endorphins.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">7. Read a\u00a0book<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Reading has many benefits, including <a class=\"markup--anchor markup--p-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/345880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/345880\">improving brain function <\/a>and strengthening your imagination. For decades now I\u2019ve escaped into the worlds of epic sci-fi or fantasy books when stress builds up. This goes beyond helping you slow down and can actually bring the worries of the real world to a complete halt, at least for a little while.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"graf graf--h3\">8. Capture moments that\u00a0matter<\/h2>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">One of my old managers bought an old film camera so that he could take pictures without looking at them immediately afterwards. He said he enjoyed the process of developing the film afterwards. This will keep you focusing on the here and now and will (with a little patience) produce memories that will last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\"><strong><em>Thanks for reading!
