Instability

hasten feat —
the shortcut, worthwhile?
pay the price,
when you fall…
instead clear the land, plant seeds —
narrow way succeeds

"pay the price, when you fall…" We often do. Sadly.

For sure, slow, methodical and deliberately steady is best in the long run. No substitute for hard, honest work. Well said!
