The Importance of Slowing Down and Contemplating
In our fast-paced world of instant gratification, it is crucial to take the time to slow down, think, and puzzle things out on our own. By exercising our minds, just as we exercise our bodies, we become stronger individuals. Slowing down allows us to be more thoughtful, considerate, and well-informed in conversations rather than feeling the need to fill silence with uninformed opinions. Taking our time to contemplate and be curious leads to better judgments in our lives and helps us avoid the mistake of speaking without full understanding.
