… on striving for clarity

You know the feeling of driving on a highway, just after you’ve gone past a gridlock. Thats the feeling of clarity. When you know just exactly what to do. When the puzzle fits. When you’ve figured it all out. 

The way clarity comes interestingly is similar to being in traffic as well. You either wait at a spot for the gridlock to clear, you find alternative routes, or you get into it and push your way through, slowly. 

I gained clarity today on something I had been meaning to work on, and I saw a quote that described exactly how I feel about clarity. 

“Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast

When you’re in traffic, there’s the tendency to keep going round and round, trying to find a way out, but you keep getting stuck. In contrast, you can sit and think things through, until it’s all clear in your mind, and then move fast. 

It’s seemingly slower but once it’s clear, the freeway gives you speed  which makes up for the lost time. 

To clarity in 2024 🎉
