Speed is my enemy

When I deliberately try to think and move more slowly, things happen faster. That sounds like a contradiction, but not having to rewrite words or clean up spills makes everything move along at a more consistent pace. And I don’t swear as much.

I feel this so much! If I slow down and focus on one task at a time I make mistakes a lot less. When I start running short on time and try to rush through everything, I end up spending more time correcting stuff than if I would have just gone at a steady pace and let myself breathe. Slow and steady wins the race 🐢
