It’s not easy to go slowly now to go quickly later.
Road construction.
Life with toddlers.
Teaching beginner-level anything.
Stakeholder engagement.
What about in your own work decisions and rhythms?
In your multi-year strategy, maybe this initial year needs to be a bit quieter, to give your team time to recharge, so that you can accelerate progress in year two and beyond?
To guard your personal energy, perhaps you need to take a longer, more “firewalled” break than usual this summer, trusting that the investment in time to think and rest will yield disproportional dividends later?
It’s not only a question of pace, but of amplified impact.
And it takes a good dose of faith and patience! Wishing you more of that today.
