300 and counting
Last week, I noticed I was getting close to 300 followers, a few days ago I reached 300 followers and now I have surpassed it.

We're tricked into believing that the quicker we go the more we are able to get done. Upon reflection this is often false. The more you rush the more you end up overwhelmed and in a flurry.
