We often forget the value of taking a moment to pause and reflect. That’s where placeholders come in. They are the little pauses that keep our place, allowing us to catch our breath and gather our thoughts.
Placeholders allow us to be still, take a step back and assess our progress. But they permit us to appreciate how far we’ve come and envision where we want to go. Placeholders remind us to slow down and be present at the moment.
Whether it’s a few moments of meditation, a quiet walk in nature, or simply sitting in silence, these pauses help us recharge and gain clarity. They give us the space to refocus, recenter, and make intentional choices.
Create a placeholder ritual and value them. They may be small pauses, but they can make a significant impact.
