Rush is the devil in disguise. This continues to be prevalent in my life more and more. The more I try to rush and the more chaos I put myself through, the more I learn the importance of not rushing. I don’t enjoy it, but I still somehow find myself going through it all the time, or putting myself through it all the time.
There isn’t really much to say about this. I know it, and all I have to do is apply it and live by it.
How can I do that? It’s very simple. Literally just assign times and schedules to things and follow them. Be very articulate about these things.
I have to also be aware and mindful of what’s important and what isn’t, what’s hard-coded and non-negotiable, and what is flexible. But in general, the default is to follow and not break the schedules that I’ve written for myself.
