Summary
Imagine two men biking, one at a rapid pace and the other at a leisurely pace. How long do you think it takes them to bike 25 miles? The answer might surprise you, as it surprised me (Phil Svitek), because the answer is there’s not much of a difference. The biker that sped would only pull ahead by a minute or two. That may sound like an abstract math problem but it’s actually not. It’s a story that entrepreneur Derek Sivers shared on the Tim Ferriss podcast. When I heard this story, I had an epiphany, incidentally much like Tim. For years I’d approached all my work from a knock it out quick standpoint. I’d rush as fast as I could. At times that left me tired and the work somewhat to be desired. Because I was tired, I was slower with my next tasks, and then even more slower with the one after that. Sad to admit, I got angry at times too. At myself, sometimes at others. In terms of the work, I luckily have an insane amount of stamina and determination to accomplish projects. But year after year, it took a toll on me. Upon being told Siver’s story, I realized I was the biker who sped through the 25 miles. All to “just get it done.” More importantly, I realized there was a better way to knock out action steps without exhausting myself. That’s the lesson I share with you today and it can be summarized in four simple words - no hurry, no pause. Discover what that truly means and how it can change your life.
