Attention Overachievers: You Have Permission to Let Go
Blog / Produced by The High CallingI can’t imagine where all the slouches have gone.
Almost everyone I know these days is obsessed with their personal productivity and performance.

You can practically hear the value-added theme music playing in the wake of their paths.
