The faster, the better?
As we can see in the picture, two men are competing against each other in building walls. One man has built up an obviously higher but twisted wall, while the other’s work is completely vertical, strong and solid though lower.
The picture implies a very important rule of doing things that we always need a balance between speed and quality. In our daily life, “The faster, the better” has become a motto for us due to the fiercely competitive environment of our society. However, our work has no value at all if we overlook the quality of it just like the man in the picture.
As students, with the heavy burdens of our studies, we are required to do things at high speed. Meanwhile, we should always bear it in mind that no matter how fast we need to achieve something, quality may never be ignored. After all, it is our test results rather than the speed that counts.
