**Sometimes the most potent move forward starts with one choice, to step back.**
*Pausing can seem like a shortcoming in a world that exalts perpetual motion. But really, wisdom calls one to step back. It's the moment you start comprehending rather than responding.*
>Step back when life seems to be out of order. When your goals seem fuzzy, take a step back.*
*Distance provides perspective; it enables you to view the broader picture, the lessons lying behind the chaos.*
*Stepping back helps one to find strength; it is not quitting. It is inhaling before the next jump.*
*Many discoveries come from quiet times. The artist backs off to view the entire picture; the leader retreats to find direction; the soul draws back to reclaim calm.*
*Thus, remember that sometimes the wisest course of action is to step back and observe more clearly rather than to race when the world pressures you to do so.* **Shalom**
*Thank you for your time*
