Direction, is More Important Than
Speed
“Speed is useful only important if you
are running
In the right direction.”
Joel Barker, Future Edge
As I see it . . . . . . .
Direction, is more important than speed
I’m late; I’m late for an important date
“I’m late;
I’m late for A very important date. No time to
say hello, good-bye, I’m late and when I wave,
I lose
time, to save. My fuzzy ears and whiskers took
me too much time to shave. I run and I hop,
hop, hop, I wish that I could fly. There’s
danger id I dare to Stop and here’s the
reason why: I’m over-due, I’m in
a
rabbit stew. Can’t even
say good-bye,
Hello, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late.”
As sang by White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland
We all know people like White Rabbit . .
. . There hurrying around from pillar to post leaving a trail of dust behind
them. But they’re not going anywhere fast.
They’re moving as fast as they can go
from task to task. There’s a lot of motion but there’s very little . . . . or no
progress. They have all the balls in the air . . . . and will juggle as many as
they can at any one time. But when everything is said . . . . and done juggling doesn't get things.
Positive focused activity . . . . gets
things done.
It’s the direction that your success
journey in moving in that’s important not the speed.
You will be judged on the quality of
what you successfully complete . . . . and the quality of your work. Fast is
not a substitute for quality and in most cases it will not create satisfied
customers . . . . repeat business . . . . or referrals.
Your success journey is not about the
speed of the success journey. It’s about the direction that you’re headed in and
creates the stepping stones of successes along the way to achieve your goals.
Going fast may look good or feel good at
the time . . . . but activity without a focused directions . . . . and quality
results leaves a trail of unfulfilled promises. It will also take you off
course to the point where it becomes very challenging to get back on track . .
. . and to successfully move in the direction of achieving your goals.
When you focus on your objections . . .
. and commit yourself to achieving them you will progress in the right direction.
I’m late; I’m late for an important date
is not a substitute for quality.
Direction, is more important than speed.
