FAST OR RUSH

We always encounter our counterparts asking for things to be done fast.

Doing something Fast is always seen as a shorter time duration for doing something such as producing documents or manufacturing a product.

The upfront impression is like a person sprinting quickly.

Once you do this fast every time and well, it is not fast anymore. It becomes normal speed.

We all know that if you do something quickly without experience , there is a likelihood that mistakes will be made. This is because you did it in a RUSH.

So the difference between doing something fast and rush is that doing something fast requires experience.

Experience helps you to be aware of the environment that your work involves. Once you understand your environment that your work involves you can plan better.

Once you plan better your progress is smoother with less obstruction.

In conclusion fast might be slower than rush, but work done fast is more resolved than doing things in a rush.

An excellent sprinter is seen as fast because he/she practice how to sprint many times before the actual race. If you included the duration of training with the actual sprint, you will realize the overall time taken is neither fast or rush.

You perceived fastness because you only watched the few second of sprinting without the training.

What this video didn't tell you is that all parts have to be drawn, co-ordinated, monitored in factory for months after months. All component must be ready for the assembly on the day of assembly, so everybody waits for everybody. There must have been a massive warehouse to store all these component at hand. The construction appears to be 360 hour job, but a lot of waiting for different components needed to be fabricated.

Also good to note that the site is not urbanized, this means the delivery of parts did not have obstruction and traffic to deal with.

In short:

REAL FAST IS SLOWER THAN RUSH
