the groWING Slowness..

Flowing with the waves of life, keeping my eyes open, I can see something which is bothering me. The pace of the flow hasnt been the same throughout. Slowly but surely a slowness is creeping in life of probably each one of us. This slowness is not that easily perceptible lazy nature, but the subtle change that goes unnoticed. Every process involving us has slowed down. Gone are the days when we wished small things and got them if not instantly then with short period of yelling. Gone are the days when just had to press a button to have another go at the mighty dragon and become a superhero. Gone are the days when to master a subject it just needed hours. Gone are the days when end of session used to bring cheer and altogether new chapter of life. Now every process has slowed down. Wishes have grown in stature. Then our toy cars used to be lovely, now all manageble cars look like toys. A second chance now takes a longtime to come, it may not come at all. Entering into a practical field ensures that you cannot master anything within hours. Infact it takes long hours just to get introduction forget about mastering. Decreasing learning abilities and increasing complexities can be balmed for this. Now no session ends with time. Change in session is in control of our hands but those hands are not free, they are handcuffed by commitments and responsibilities. It takes hell lot of time in just deciding the timing of the next session. Forget global economc slowdown tackle this slowdon first.
It is a wonderful feeling when your mind is bothered with some thoughts and you see something very similar to it discussed in a book. This happened to me as well. Lets see what the book has to say about it.
There are three mantras in reaching or achieving a goal. First is the Vision, its the vision or the fanatacies associated with goal which attract us towards it. Our day and night dreams are part of this vision.
Lets just leave the second mantra for a while and jump to the third one. It's Execution i.e. performance time. It's the time when you deliver to realize those fanatsies, your vision.
The mantra which is in between these two steps is Patience: time to prepare yourself for the execution to realize the vision. The usual mistake is to loose patience and try to rush everything. Loosing patience can result in depression and ultimately failure.
The growing slowness could also be somehow explained through these three mantras.
Since the vision is now bigger than ever so it needs more patience than ever. The growing Slowness is nothing but the growing requirement of patience for everything now.
