David writes, "We seem to have to learn about the illusions of speed indivual by individual, generation afer generation. Yet speed by itself has never been associated with good work by those who have achieved mastery in any given field. Speed does not come from spped. Speed is aresult, an outcome, an ecology of combining factors in a person's approach to work; deep attention, well-laid and well-sharpened tools, care, patience, the imagination engaged to bring disparate parts together in one whole."
Consider the following question as you reflect on your workplace:
When do we rush ourselves?
What's gained by rushing?
What's jeopardized by rushing?
Who rushes who? and why?
Is there something greater to be gained instead through cultivating "deep attention, well-laid and well-sharpened tools, care, patience, the imagination engaged to bring disparate parts together in one whole."
THIS ALL DEPENDS ON THE GOALS THAT MUST BE ACCOMPLISHED BY YOU TO ACHEIVE THAT WHICH IS NECESSARY .
