In this latest episode of our monthly series, PM Talks, I sit down with my good friend Patrick Rhone to dive deep into the idea of finding the right pace in life and work. We explore how our relationship with time evolves as we age, and what it means to develop a sustainable cadence that suits our changing needs and values. Patrick and I discuss how wisdom often takes priority over productivity, and how embracing pacing can lead to a more fulfilling life.This conversation touched on a lot of important ideas, including how age impacts our pacing and how the societal pressure to constantly accelerate can affect our well-being. We even draw connections between personal reflections and practical applications for making better choices about how we spend our time.Key Discussion Points How turning 50 has influenced my perspective on pacing in life and work The role of age in shaping our relationship with time and productivity Why "moving slow to go fast" can be more effective in both work and life Embracing wisdom over output as we get older The cultural shift away from valuing the wisdom of elders and its impact Understanding personal limitations and making conscious decisions about where to put our energy Patrick also shared insights on the importance of understanding and respecting personal limitations, and we reflected on how age affects our perceptions of time and productivity.
