3D Juggling 616: Planned Neglect

Claire writes: “I’m running a Masterclass on designing actions later today and it crossed my mind that we often think actions are things to do. Choosing how to be can be an action as well.  And so can doing nothing – or even stopping doing things.  Which reminded me of a great quote from the Rule of Life of the Companions of Brother Lawrence:

“For us, planned neglect will mean deliberately choosing which things we will leave undone or postpone, so that instead of being oppressed by a clutter of unfinished jobs, we think out our priorities under God and then accept without guilt or resentment the fact that much we had thought we ought to do we must leave.”
