Press Pause

What are some places or situations in which God is asking me to press pause and give myself a minute to consider how my actions might affect others?    Normally I work out every day.  I have been trying and failing to loose weight for awhile now.  The other day I put out my back (neck and arms) while washing my hair.  Yes, washing my hair.  It has stopped all work outs and a great deal of movement all together; including driving.  The pause button has been pressed.  It's a bit of a relief.  I am not too sure how it affects others, but it has affected me.  I need down time whether I think I do or not.
