Slow Down to Speed Up

We live in an age where “fast” is the ultimate virtue. Fast Wi-Fi, fast apps, fast delivery, fast news cycles. If something takes longer than a few seconds, we start to fidget. Productivity software promises more speed, but often what it delivers is more noise, more clutter, and more distraction.

The irony? We’re sprinting, but not moving forward. We’ve confused acceleration with progress.

The truth—one I had to learn the hard way—is this:
sometimes the fastest way to move ahead is to deliberately slow down.
