I am slow?

80% Normal
18 Comments

So all my life I've been hearing that I'm slow, I eat slow, I move slow, It's just all slow. Of course when I want to I move fast, I am a pretty athletic guy, when I want to I do things quick with no problem. I never really feel tired, I get my 8 hrs of sleep most nights, I eat like any other person, I have a good head on my shoulders, have no problems in school, I'm social, I'm perfectly healthy but for some reason when I'm working or when I'm doing everyday things I just go at my own pace, my state of mind is usually-"why the rush?", If i HAVE to go faster I have to think about it, if I want to go faster I'm quicker than most people. I think simply that unless I'm doing what I want to do I go slow.

        Same here, except that even when I try to be fast, I'm still slower than the next fastest person... I'm getting in trouble at work for it, too. D:

    people always rush me i try to do it faster so that they get off my back but in my head im like "stfu if you want it done fast do it yourself" or when im walking slow and people in school are saying walk faster i think "just go around you lazy bum" they are very annoying, they act like im blocking their life or something.

      Exactly!! I see the same thing while driving all the time. I take my time and enjoy the drive no matter how long. People pass me in frustration all the time. The way I see it is: There are ppl who want to do everything as fast as they can. It's like their self-motivation. Then there are people who dont see the sense in rushing (me)...not in unexciting everyday tasks or situations atleast. Some just want to keep up with the "joneses" so they feel adequate according to society. Others are just trying to boost their own ego by complaining and/or showing disgust in how "slow" you move. Some may do this to support their own beliefs while failing to realize that you have the freedom to move your body how you like and should mind their own and let you do you. Of course you're gonna wanna move faster sometimes for sake harmony if out with a group for instance- why carelessly agitate the group- or whenever the circumstance calls for it. I'm also healthy and athletic. I also eat a vegan diet and meditate. These may influence the "slow moving". I am capable of most anything, however, including moving faster. But I choose not to. Plus it makes me feel unnecessarily tense and stressed and hot. "It will happen when it happens" "We will get there when we get there." It's a personality trait. Its a person's preference in the way they experience life. According to Myers Briggs, those who prefer to "enjoy the journey" and take their time express the (P)erceiver personality trait. Those who feel that there IS a "way" to do things. A better way. A correct way. "Want to get to the destination" have the (J)udgement personality trait. I favor the (P) in most situations rather than (J). Some don't. Shrugs* It's normal. Live yo life. And be confident doing it.

    you do not work out in gym !!
    Advice : drink cup of coffee after breakfast Orange juice go and work out in gym for 1 hour at least ,, ands heyyy youu !! don't say you have no time to do some work out..

    working out makes you fast and fresh coffe in the morning only one cup some Orange..

    it is abnormal to stay slow ok.

    If you're hearing it from everybody, then it isn't normal. If you're hearing it from a nag in the family, well...

    You sure EVERYONE tells you? It may feel this way since someone important to you tells you stuff like that, never mind it, your fast, and someone is trying to slow you down. Fuck that, your fast and with your training becoming even faster. If someone told me that, id get up and say: "Hey what the fuck is up with that? Who do you think you are? You are not going to tell ME who I am, only I can do that"
