You and I are kindred spirits! I too am an introverted and sensitive dilly-dallier, who finds working in an office really overstimulating, so this very much resonates. (And I actually have a post half written about dilly-dallying! 😂) Thank you for sharing and for the mention. ❤️
Relate, relate! I mean, I can move quickly when I need to, but I *loathe* rushing, I hate having to do anything frantically, and I like to be methodical. I do not want to be hassled. I like to take my time, whether that's when I'm cooking a recipe (method says 30 minutes, my time says 50) or travelling somewhere. Give me breathing space and time to faff about. I don't consider myself slow - I just want to do things with peace and at a sensible pace.
However, I am a fast and impatient walker. Swings, roundabouts, etc!
Omg, the recipe thing is SO ME. James can rustle up a meal in 30 minutes, I'm still there two hours later having faffed for too long over cutting the onions. I like it that way though. Here's to breathing space ❤️
This post speaks to my soul! It took me to be off work with stress and anxiety to realise what was causing it- the hustle culture. It's just not for me and, that's okay. I'll happily be a dilly-dallier and live in my own special way!
Here's to the dilly-dalliers!! 💕 Honestly I've panicked for the longest time that I'm doing life wrong because I like my quiet time too much, but really the time I spend pottering and going at my own pace means I can function better when life speeds up. Another gorge post as usual Lauren!!
I am not naturally like this but I really appreciate that people are, we need the ponderers , the people who give considered opinions now more than ever. Quicker is not inherently better. I really want to slow down too. Today I am having a bed day as I have been so busy recently.
I’m a medical professional who chose this path unaware that I’m a dilly dallier. 10 years of hustle in the field made me realize I need to be on my own. So now I chose to work on my own, in private, inspite of having to start from scratch. The reason is that I need that time and space as an introvert hsp. Your words are so comforting to me. To see someone like me.
love this! sometimes, i'm slow to get up and go, but quick to dilly dally (and live life intentionally at my own pace) - and that feels just right to me ;-)

Oh Katie, we so are! LOVE THIS FOR US. I can’t wait to read your post on the magic of dilly-dallying 💕
We all know, this is why we get along. Can’t wait to be able to leave my current 9-5 and embrace more dilly dallying.

Loved reading this, as ever :)

You are doing life YOUR WAY, Ella, and we all love you for it ❤️
I can be efficient and fast paced, but it makes me miserable. I much prefer to dilly dally!
Us dilly dalliers are very happy and content people, I've found!
Ahhhh I relate to this SO much
Soooo glad that you feel seen here! ❤️

Love this take, Kelly! Thank you for sharing it x
Dilly daydreaming dilly dallier is my name? Hmmm I might need to reflect on that one for a while. 🤔🤔🤔😍
