THE QUESTION WE SET OUT TO ANSWER:

What if there was a philosophy of leisure instead, and life could be lived with both verve and accomplishment, and it benefited not only you, but those you love, and, indeed, the world?

What if overachievement and productivity aren't the panacea we expected them to be?

Philosophy of Leisure is on a mission to help others reinterpret the ideal life— one that’s based on building a lifestyle they can enjoy now, rather than waiting to achieve all of one's goals, or to retire.

PoL and its offerings have created a foundational and tangible framework to reimagine success by reverse engineering one’s life and learning to “be” rather than “do” as a pathway toward rediscovering causeless joy - whilst still keeping a watchful eye on one’s future goals, on giving back, on a life of culture, and on meaningful accomplishment.

What would it feel like to stop running?
To look around you and enjoy life as it is, without worry, fret, or fear for the future?

Our 6 Key Areas
of Focus

We advocate for reverse engineering one’s life by first addressing the six focus areas which have been scientifically proven to make humans happy - and then using that energy to meet one's personal, financial, and business goals.

Be Present

Be Socially Connected

value the arts

Be Well-Rested

Give Back

Adopt daily movement

NO. 1

NO. 2

NO. 3

NO. 4

NO. 5

NO. 6

EMBRACE THE
NOW.

We reject hustle and productivity culture, and the call to more; replacing it with enjoying culture and the arts, right-leveled success, and engaging in the daily practices which lead to sustainable happiness.

DEVELOP A 20 SLOT RULE.

We believe in combating overchoice by divesting our lives of things that no longer resonate, and, instead, first adding in the things which are proven to help humans thrive- to generate the energy necessary for sustained focus on what matters most.

PRIORITIZE LONGEVITY.

One of the many benefits of a reordered life is your own health and longevity. Adequate rest, intuitive eating, meditation, and gentle movement are all an integral part of that.

GIVE WITH LOVE.

We believe in turning back to help - in both little and large ways. We can all lead lives of service regardless of financial position, or our roles in life, which is not only of benefit to others, and to our planet, but fundamental to our own happiness as well.

The primary tenets of our philosophy

VALUES WISDOm, respects experience, AND appreciates tradition - but is also willing to

rewrite  the
rules

DESIRES an alternate approach to success—one that doesn’t entail 

                                                            
that only leads to burnout

all out, hair-on-fire hustle

Rejects the belief THat thEY need to have it all — THEY value financial freedom & cultivate

quiet money

Is a life-long learner, and isn’t afraid to course correct; adjusting THEir sails

as they learn

values time                                amongst loved ones; without an agenda and filled with

very well spent

culture and the arts

BalanceS


with data, science,
and hard facts

intuition & philosophy

COMBATS anxiety, OVERCHOICE, and BRAIN FATIGUE with meditation, and

targeted  journaling

MAINTAINS THEIR
sense of calm and equanimity;


that may ensue around THEM

regardless  of  the  chaos

WantS to be seen for                    rather than where they work, how they look, or what they own

who they are

Somewhere along the way our society decided that being busy was a status symbol. And technological advances have enabled, and encouraged, us to be always available.
Yet leisure and rest help us to think more clearly, decide more logically, consume more wisely, innovate and create more freely, and connect more deeply. It's about having the space to build the life we choose, rather than having one thrust upon us, by default.
