A 2-second pause changes everything.

In a world that rewards speed, slowing down can feel counterintuitive. But what if the real power lies in the pause?

At Black Sheep Global, we believe leadership isn’t just about what you say—it’s about how you say it, and when. That’s why we’re inviting you to slow down by just 10%. Your walk. Your talk. Even how quickly you answer a question.

Why? Because reacting is instinctual. Responding is intentional.

Before you speak, take a 2-second pause. Ask yourself: Am I listening to understand—or just waiting to reply?

This micro-shift creates macro-impact. It builds trust. It deepens connection. And it gives your words the weight they deserve.

Try it today. Walk 10% slower. Speak 10% slower when responding. Pause 2 seconds longer before answering a question. You’ll be surprised at how much greater your presence becomes.
