57 things not to do in a rush
Life is too short. Understanding it, some rush to live by Daft Punk music “Harder, faster, better,” But sometimes rushing does more harm than good. To avoid this, I will immediately list the things that would be good to do slowly, confidently, and qualitatively.

2. Signing an agreement for a house or with a bank.

10. Having sex. (Okay, sometimes you can do it fast, but not always, enjoy more :))

39. Waking up on a Sunday morning.

53. Serving customers. (They need your love, attention.) (You can do this quickly unless you work for McDonald’s.)
54. Judging a person. You can judge, but if you are sure that you will never regret it. Or if the court proved that that person is really guilty!
55. Doubting yourself or even others.
56. Creating a product. (Your product should be of high quality.)
57. Lowering the price and setting up discounts. (I’m about selling yourself.)
So, these were 57 things that you shouldn’t do in a rush. I hope you received value, and please don’t live like a fast rabbit. Sometimes you can step on the gas pedal, but the smartest thing to do is take breaks during which you can rest and recharge your energy!
