That’s how you make a difference in something that matters to you, and that’s how you live a fulfilling life.
Michael Hyatt goes on
Michael Hyatt goes on to define freedom in four ways.
- Freedom to Focus: the ability to do your task with absolute attention and no distractions.
- Freedom to Be Present: the ability to be fully present wherever you are without being interrupted.
- Freedom to Be Spontaneous: the ability to drop whatever you are doing and respond to a new situation spontaneously.
- Freedom to Do Nothing: the ability to do nothing and just enjoy the moment.
