- If you were to visit a noted surgeon to have a delicate operation performed--especially upon an organ whose destruction would prove painful or incapacitating--would you be seeking "speed" from your surgeon?
- Are the most enjoyable visits with longtime friends the visits shoehorned between other pressing appointments?
- Would you describe as a factor in your most joyous and memorable interludes of intimacy the expediency of your partner?
Additionally, there are still many of us who relish the human dialogue that occurs naturally when you make a purchase, mail a letter, or go on a date. I subscribe to renowned author Stephen Covey's notion that you cannot rush the harvest.
It may very well be that the very business leaders who tout speed as the equivalency of quality service may be masking the very lack of true sustainable quality in the service itself, or simply in the character of the speaker herself/himself. Authentic quality need not be set to an egg timer to be appreciated by its purchasers.
TODAY'S QUESTION: Are your most satisfying and relaxing personal experiences in life always...FAST?
