Speed is the rate at which something or someone moves. It could be fast, slow, or moderate. Some people are suckers for speed, and if something is not fast enough, they don't want it.
Fast speed can be great for that adrenaline rush. It is thrilling and exciting for some. That's why we have race cars and speed competitions. It also feels good to have the fastest speed in the room (or road).
But there's also a limit no matter how much speed makes you feel alive. Many lives have been lost to speed. It's a topic that has been repeated over the years, but not everyone is interested in it until a limb or life is lost.
Not trying to chastise the people who love speed, but life requires you to slow down sometimes and take it in. There's more to life than simply increasing its speed.
We are that microwave generation that wants everything done in a minute. We don't have the time to put in the work on anything. We forget that things need time, patience, and perseverance.
No one is ready to work for ten years to get promoted to the next level. We want to get a new job today and get promoted after three weeks because we have learned everything. But life doesn't work like that.
Everything is a procedure, a process, and a recipe. When you skip steps, you may reach the end fast but not get the desired results. That's why most of us are depressed because things are not working as fast as we want them to.
Our speed quotes remind you that though speed is great at times, like during competitions, sometimes direction is more important than speed. It never matters how slow you go as long as you don't stop because you will get there.
