Why should you slow down?
Imagine this: The Earth has been in existence for 4.5 billion years. Now, consider just 1 million years out of that enormous timespan. To put it in perspective, that’s like taking 1 year and multiplying it by 1,000, and then taking that 1,000 years and multiplying it by 1,000 again. If that doesn't blow your mind, using our calculation, it means the earth is 4,500 million years old. Just imagine the infinite mind-bending time it took for us to evolve into humans.
If you don't care about that, at least you'd care about how this translates into your work and career. But first, what does slow mean? Slow means the gradual increase in something.
If anything, you should know that nature is really slow, and the best way to do great work is to slow down. Reduce your expectations and work one day at a time.
