A quotation from Samuel Johnson

The distance is commonly very great between actual performances and speculative possibility. It is natural to suppose, that as much as has been done to-day may be done to-morrow; but on the morrow some difficulty emerges, or some external impediment obstructs. Indolence, interruption, business, and pleasure, all take their turns of retardation; and every long work is lengthened by a thousand causes that can, and ten thousand that cannot, be recounted. Perhaps no extensive and multifarious performance was ever effected within the term originally fixed in the undertaker’s mind. He that runs against Time, has an antagonist not subject to casualties.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets, “Pope” (1781)

🚗 If #investing #in an odometer to make cars faster makes sense, then surely, attaching a speedometer to a turtle will make it fly! 🐢💨 The article dives into the profound mysteries of managing #time with all the clarity of a foggy mirror, casually ignoring anything remotely useful like #leadership. 🙄
