Crushing my Ego Going Slow instead of Fast

I have this bad habit of forcing quicker results. And due to that I often get frustrated with my own progress. So this time I crushed my own ego. I decided to do one thing a day while developing the app. I only completed one task at a time. no more no less. My app development is going really good and I have managed to do a lot of things in this week. It is slow but it is going good lately. Sometimes if you want to make things happen, you have to go slow.

I think you have to moderate yourself, else you will have problem with high blood pressure. People who want instant result tends to have this health problem. It is good to take things easy.

thats what happens also if you move back a little bit and see the challenges you are facing in a different perspective.
