Be the ambulance

[Eric Tarpall]

My favorite mantra is ''Hurry'' I know that sounds neurotic but it gives me energy. Your pace is one of the few things that you can control. So why not go fast? I think anything that's worth doing is worth doing quickly. Mind and body are connected but I think it's possible to stay calm while you're racing.

i like to do things slowly. as slow as possible.

i find it a lot easier to enjoy life on slow pace.

When I go slower, I'm more in tune with my emotions and in the moment more, when I'm rushing it takes a lot of thought and coordination and I can't really focus on existing as much, which I'd rather do

Hurry is stress slowly is peace what do you think makes you chose good decision?

@Eric Tarpall Have you ever seen paramedics walk into a scene? Even if the person is minutes from death they just walk up really casually in their own time.

@Eric Tarpall  seems to be getting dumped on in this thread but I actually agree with him.

You need a sense of urgency in life. Otherwise you go from peaceful to just apathetic and passive. It's a fine line.

Urgency plus a sense of calm is more of the sweet spot to me.

@aurum Yeah, like paramedics that understand the gravity of the situation but don't stress themselves too much over it. Or the driver of the ambulance who goes fast, but I'm sure is loving it, and isn't panicked the whole way.
