I just noticed that I’m becoming faster in my daily life. I rush around the house picking things up, I make dinner as if I’m starving even when I’m not, I take quick baths, and I walk faster when I’m going to the store or catching a train.

Now that I’ve noticed, I’m going to consciously slow down – I had the same thing happen a couple of years ago, and it didn’t do me any good. I don’t think the point of life should be trying to get through the day as fast as possible.

I’m curious. How fast are you, compared to others around you, or yourself at an earlier time? Does your speed feel good, or overwhelming?
