Beyond the Hustle: Odun’s Journey to a Contemplative Approach to Work
Odun Longe: Hi, my name is Odun Longe I am from Nigeria, Lagos, Nigeria, but I live in London. I actually shuttle between London, the US and Nigeria.
Odun Longe: I am a lawyer. I run my own law firm in a very Intense, sector it's you know, it is a job I enjoy doing, but at the same time, I had always found it difficult balancing my contemplative practice with my job,
Odun Longe: I like to think I have a more balanced life now, just going through the readings, listening to Sean, understanding that you can live a contemplative life even within a career and finding that balance between being passionate, between being attentive, as against being driven and being just committed to a hustle was something was a big takeaway for me from Sean's class. I'm glad I took it. I learned a lot. It's my current lifestyle, my current work lifestyle is evidence of passing of my learnings from those classes. Before joining his class, I was always a journaler. I journaled. We were encouraged to journal every day during his class. So I became more active. It is now a daily practice for me, and it has deeply affected the way I approach work, the way I interact with my colleagues.
