Taking the time to do things well

What is of the utmost importance is to do things right. The results are irrelevant if you do things right. All that matters is the present moment. Are you focusing 100% on your art as you are doing it? Are you pouring your heart and soul into execution?

And to do things right, one must take his time. When you do anything with a result in mind, you are not present focused. You are future—and result—oriented, and this leads you to hurry. Being focused on the result will make you rush. It's When you should not want to be doing things, which then makes it muche harder, if not impossible, to do things right.

It's understanding that many things can't be done at once, but rather in continuity and consistency of action over a certain period of time. Rather than rushing to be done or attain a goal, you are You don't have to spend hours on each task.
Besides, spending just a bit of time on a task makes it more likely that you'll keep doing it over a longer period of time, instead of burning out in frustration because you tried to go faster than what was adequate.

In fact, when you slow down, you often end up faster, as Ventakesh Rao explains in Tempo.
