Snailing along at Bolt’s pace
October 23, 2009
Living the life of a lawyer where you scutinize every letter of every word, with each such word having to make sense within a period of time and a standard format, often makes you lose yourself – and well, ironically, in the midst of all the substance, makes everything meaningless.
Last week, a thought struck me – simple yet striking. I imagined myself in the midst of 5 deadlines, 10 law books and 20 unwashed dishes………while lazily sipping on a cup of bitter morning coffee and pouring over the economist. The thought made me feel like i had met my deadline already….It seemed like ‘Prophet’ Vintagenow had come to share his words of wisdom – “stay still while you run else while you may win your race, you will lose your real trophy”
Whether it be meeting deadlines, packing my suitcase or cleaning my house, there now seems to be calm energy while snailing along at Bolt’s pace
