THE QUESTION WE SET OUT TO ANSWER:

What if there was a philosophy of leisure instead, and life could be lived with faith, 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 financial stability 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?

LIVE WITH EASE

We challenge productivity culture, which often leads to unhealthy and unsustainable habits; replacing it with practices meant to support being present, and the prudent, intentional planning and execution of building a life and career that's valued.

INCORPORATE REST, FAITH& LEISURE

We believe in combating overwhelm by first committing to the activities which are proven to help humans thrive - things like restorative rest, a faith practice, and engaging leisure - and using them to boundary a sustainable work container.

BUILD EARNED SUCCESS

Some of the benefits of a reordered life are more time and creativity which comes from doing and having less, as you move away from comparison, and, instead, focus on what brings meaning, fulfillment, earned success, and financial ease.

SUSTAINABLY GIVE BACK

We believe in turning back to help - in both little and large ways. We can all lead lives of service, regardless of financial position - which not only benefits others, and, by extension, our planet, but it's 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 STABILITY & cultivate

financial stability

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

engaging leisure

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

THE POL INDIVIDUAL

A Whole Year
of Lovely

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.
