The Secret of Confident Steps

“The warrior of Light is never in a hurry.

Time works in his favour; he learns to master his impatience and avoids acting without thinking.

By walking slowly, he becomes aware of the firmness of his step. He knows that he is taking part in a decisive moment in the history of humanity and that he needs to change himself before he can transform the world. That is why he remembers the words of Lanza del Vasto: ‘A revolution takes time to settle in.’

A warrior never picks the fruit while it is still green.

Paulo Coelho, “The Warrior of Light”

It’s said that “the more haste, the less speed”. Then it’s recommend to “hurry slowly“. Because some things happen slowly, and the best things happen the slowest. That’s probably why they’re valuable. Their value is measured by the time it took for them to become what they had become. It’s like the difference between young wine and aged wine. For there to be a change in quality, it takes the accumulation over time of certain experiences and experiences.

And the person who has stepped on the spiritual path knows this. His goal is the alchemical gold, and he has the power to control his impulses until the right moment for action comes. He never picks the fruit while it is still green.
