Festina Lente

Video

We live in a world that often praises speed—fast results, quick wins, and constant motion. But what if slowing down was actually the smarter path forward?

This week’s video takes a closer look at the old Latin saying festina lente—in short, “make haste, slowly.” It’s a phrase packed with wisdom, reminding us that rushing often leads to mistakes or less than optimal results, while a more thoughtful pace can actually get us further, faster.

Whether you're writing, leading a team, managing a project, or just trying to get through a busy day, this mindset shift can make a real difference. Slowing down doesn’t mean doing less—it means doing things better. Sounds counterintuitive? That’s exactly why it’s worth exploring.

So, settle in, get comfortable and watch today’s video. You might be surprised to find out why—and how—going slower might just help you get ahead faster.
