To Do Things Right, or Do Things Now

With the economy in the tank, and gas prices high, everyone seems to be rushing around doing something. But is that something just getting done, or is that something getting done with care. If you do a task that needs to be done now, you might hurry and cut some corners, maybe fudge a little just to get it completed. It will be ok, but that is it, just ok. Only to have whatever you did, be a temporary fix and have to go back and do it again later on to make it right. Why not do that task with care, and do it right with the right parts, taking your time the first time. You might delay the task until you have the time or the right parts, which will means you may never get done. So it comes down to a question, get it done now and possibly have to do it again, or wait, a day, a week, a month to get it done right. I personally would want to wait, and do it right. Of course, this does mean I may never get to it. But im human, I can change my habits. I can “split the difference”, I can do the task now, but maybe take a day or so to get it right, using the right parts and taking my time. With that new attitude, things will get done and everyone will be happy.
