  > I my mind, you should read this from a "work smart, not hard" angle; it's not advice to waste your time. I realize that I left out context and examples. To be honest, I wasn't even thinking about work when I wrote that. I was just thinking about day to day life in general. I've heard people say "slow down" to others even when it comes to hobbies and such. You most often hear it when it comes to driving and, yes, safe driving is paramount otherwise this example is counterproductive to my thesis. I bring it up because, personally I can't stand driving as I find the experience of my time being at the mercy of others to be so frustrating that I would rather file a tax return. I think that's probably the most common source of road rage, actually. Feeling like you're not in control. I have to admit that when people say things like "We'll get there when we get there" the first thought that enters my mind is "how nice for you that your time isn't valuable." And I realize that mindset can be dangerous on the road, which is another reason that I choose to drive as little as humanly possible.
