It was a random comment that surfaced during a conversation we had last night, while tucking into a basket of coffee marmite wings and truffle fries. Hehe Yet it took me an hour or so to register what my friend actually meant to say (maybe the beer slowed my brain down).
Funny how when people say that they want to slow things down, they always end up taking the backseat in things. It feels as though they are retiring from it, washing their hands from it.
Dunno if you remember anything from your physics classes about acceleration and displacement. Positive Acceleration is the positive rate of change of speed. You're displacing forward at an increasing rate. Positive Deceleration is still displacing forward, just that you're moving forward at a decreasing rate. HAHAHA can't believe this is coming out from me.
If you want want slow things down in your career, you don't stop contributing. You don't stop working. If you decide to slow things down in a relationship, you don't stop talking. You continue building on your friendship.
