This is one paradox I learned late - but it does have its uses.
Work must always be done with an urgency. This does not mean hurried and shoddy jobs but an indication that work should have some kind of an immediacy, some urgency to complete and even monetise. Now, is the only truth as far as work is concerned.
In the same breath results must be awaited patiently. Just because the work is done, does not mean all results show up instantly. A gap there could lead to frustration. It's imperative then to keep the fine balance - work with great immediacy and then patiently reap the results. Work here does indicate pushing with great urgency for results too, but being patient in its yielding.
It's quite a recipe for contented and satisfied living.
