Pacing

From Celia’s Images in a Reflecting Pool: Journal Entries Inspired by A Course in Miracles. Copyright 1995.

Norman Vincent Peale counseled pacing in daily life (though he did not call it that).  He writes that, if in God’s own time, it is not there, it was not meant to be there.

 This also works to mediate against precipitous action.

I don’t know that it would work in a life-threatening situation, but in my own life and work, I know that considered action and going with the flow (not bucking the tide) is what works.
