"Why are you rushing so much?" asked the rabbi. "I’m rushing after my livelihood," the man answered. "And how do you know," said the rabbi, "that your livelihood is running on before you, so that you have to rush after it? Perhaps it's behind you, and all you need to do is stand still."
- Tale about Rabbi Ben Meir of Berdichev
Hurry is an expression of fear. Fear that there is not enough. It’s an indication of a belief in lack. When I catch myself hurrying I realize I must switch from a “not enough” mentality to a “more than enough” mentality. From a fearful mentality to a faithful mentality, from a bad feeling mentality to a good feeling one. I’ve noticed as I relax, by putting my faith in divine timing, traffic seems to go my way.
The biblical quote, “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord” can be interpreted as, “Relax and experience the solution.” So, cultivate poise. Poise is power. Poise is a combination of patience and the expectancy that all is in divine order.
