"Even if you are in a hurry, I never hurry." John Wesley
Not too long ago, before there was email and spam, has been usual, the match away for a day or two before sending it. This is particularly true when the issue was emotionally charged. We understand that once sent, words to live forever on one side. I recently received an e-mail, which made it a not too positive emotional nerve. I press "Reply", type in my answer, and press Enter. A few minutes later, Itrying to remember the e-mail. I could not. My instinctive reaction was flying his way through cyberspace. I knew that if it's only "shock" in the "instinctive" would be obvious.
There is a prize for rapid action in our culture. Quick to be, if not before, is very popular in travel, sport and business. The delays are not tolerated well. Are considered slow and reflective stroll.
A friend of mine is impetuous. She is a dolphin fast forward. TriggersDecisions, and is often correct. In the course of their work lies the frustration, confusion and chaos of the people around them. And 'where he goes often. It is usually there before the others. I have another friend who is an anchor. He hesitates. In the name of thinking things through, he rarely gets through anything. He does not create a wake, because there is little movement. He leaves no one, because he rarely left. I have often thought it would be interesting to haveCo-chair of a committee. It would be fun to see the feathers fly.
Aldus Manutius was an Italian Renaissance writers and printers. His invention in italics and set the model for the publication will be credited as we know it today. His personal motto, Festina lente. "Make haste slowly," He took counsel continues to be the motto of an anchor entwined with the dolphins. Noise robust anchors Dolphins send a paradoxical truth. Real progress and good flows from the gap betweenImpetuosity and hesitation. We are at our best when we make haste and hurry.
Is not today the perfect day for Festina Lente?
