(Minghui.org) Whatever I did in the past, I did it slowly and steadily. The benefit was that things seldom went wrong, but the drawback was inefficiency, because it took too long. Master talked about this in the Fa.
I was slow-paced and methodical, which seemed to be my innate character, and it was really hard for me to change. Yet I sometimes thought about it.
Not very long ago, I worked with a fellow practitioner whose ways impressed me. She did everything quickly. She never took long to get anything done. Whenever she promised to do something, she would do it right away and never procrastinate.
Because I admired her, I emulated the way she did things. Now whenever I do anything, I do it more quickly, and the speed at which I get things done has increased dramatically.
Do not make excuses because you are a "slow-paced" person. We are not ordinary people. If we know that we should do things quickly, we need to adopt methods that are fast-paced. And everything will be done quickly.
Now time flies, and a day passes very quickly. At this last precious moment, let us treasure every day and do well what we should do.
