Then that generation comes of age and wonders why they have to clean up someone else's mess. Not exactly fair. @ Armen, another thing about catch up is that one generation sometimes defers the burden to the next.

Relating the average speed problem to this concept fits wonderfully. Slow and steady destroys any plan of future catch-up, because the public doesn't support catching up later, as they wonder why the vigor wasn't there early on, and feel manipulated. Maintaining a pace is also more healthy as it is less taxing on the mind and physical form. Thanks for bringing this up. Hey Hunter.

There are other reasons it works too, such as by establishing daily habits, motivation by seeing consistent progress, etc. @ Faramarz, I guess it sounds counter intuitive because it doesn’t really mean “slow and steady,” more like “moderate pace and steady.” There are other reasons it works too, such as by establishing daily habits, motivation by seeing consistent progress, etc.

The problem with slow and steady is that it seems so counter intuitive you have to really discipline yourself to go slow in the begin and to keep on going at the end I agree completely because this reminds me of many of the goals i have set for myself – slacking of at the start and catching up at the end will not work in anyway.
