And so it appears that while distracting the mind, making it impossible to think of other concerns, through maximum velocity will work for some time, eventually there will be a sudden deceleration when one's concentration lapses. This results in violent movement and pain. bla bla bla the moral of the story is if you wish to move very fast you must have complete focus and have planned for the obstacles that lie in your chosen route. If not, go slow like the rest.
Ah-some truth from Kong Fuzi (confucius) from way back in the day-
...Zi-gong asked: "Between shi and shang, which is worthier?" The Master said "Shi goes beyond whereas shang falls short."
Zi-gong said: "Then, shi is the superior?"
The Master said: "To go beyond is the same as to fall short."
Gotta get perfect tranny.
...The Master said: "Sweet words, a pleasing countenance, and excessive respectfulness-Zuo Qui Ming deems it shameful; I also deem it shameful. To conceal ones resentment against a person and befriend him-Zuo Qui Ming deems it shameful; I also deem it shameful."
...The Master said: "Acting solely in pursuit of profit will incur much resentment."
...The Master said: "Do not worry about having no office, rather worry about whether you deserve to stand in that office. Do not worry about nobody knowing you; rather, seek to be worth knowing."
...The Master said: 'On seeing a worthy man, think of equaling him; on seeing an unworthy man, examine yourself inwardly."
...The Master said: "The reason that the ancients would not rashly utter words is that they deemed it shameful not to live up to them."
...The Master said: "Those who err through self restraint are rare indeed."
...The Master said: "The gentleman wishes to be slow in speech but brisk in action."
...Someone said Yong is humane but not eloquent. The Master said: "What does he need eloquence for? To confront people with a glib tongue often makes them detest you. I do not know about his being humane, but what does he need eloquence for?"
...Zai Yu slept during the day. The Master said: "Rotten wood is beyond carving; a dung and mud wall is beyond plastering. As for Yu, what is the use of reprimanding him?"
...The Master said: "At first my attitude toward men was to hear their words and believe in their deeds. Now my attitude toward men is to hear their words and observe their deeds."
...Ran qui said: "Not that I do not like your Way, sir, but that my ability is insufficient. The Master said: "Those whose ability is insufficient give up halfway. Now you have drawn a halting line."
...The Master said: "To people above average, one can impart higher things; to people below average, one cannot impart higher things."
...The Master said: "He who possesses neither Zhu Tuos eloquence nor Song Chaos good looks will find it difficult to be immune from the perils of todays world."
...A man of humanity is one who, wishing to establish himself, helps others to establish themselves, and who, wishing to gain perception, helps others to gain perception. He is able to take himself as an example. This may be called the approach to humanity.
...Zi-lu said: "Sir, if you were to command the three armies, whom would you have with you? The Master said: "He who wrestles a tiger bare handed, or crosses a river bare-footed and dies without regret-I would not have him. It must be someone who, confronting a task, is apprehensive and who is good not only at making stratagems but also implementing them."
...The Master said: "Eating course food, drinking plain water, and bending one arm for a pillow-happiness also lies therein. Wealth and rank acquired through unrighteous means are to me like drifting clouds."
