The folks over at Good.is have a great piece on slowing things down. Italo Calvino had a great saying, “festina lente,” hurry slowly. This piece certainly makes the case, on many levels, to take such an approach.
I particularly like this quote by Ester Dyson:
If it were up to Dyson, slowness would be invited into business and define gross domestic product differently, especially in relation to education and health care. “Our health-care system right now is all about repair. If you thought long-term, you’d be good to your body, which is good for the economy.”
