ADVICE FOR THE FAST WORKER

See this content in the original post

Sayadaw: I notice that you do things fast.

If we do something quickly, it can quickly agitate the mind because of the energy we put in to be quick. 

When we are relaxed and we have to react to something, we can even see just how much energy is needed to respond. 

Yogi: Sometimes I do, and I tell myself there is no need and it is better to be slow and steady as in a marathon. 

Sayadaw: Yes, and there’s no competition because you’re the only one running.
