Seizing the moment and pressing forward is playing with tempo.
Playing with tempo is taking steps forward and building momentum.
The opposite of playing with tempo is constantly allowing yourself to be distracted and taken away from projects.
When you can’t establish momentum and roll through a project, you will have to re-introduce yourself to a project and learn the intricacies of every project over and over again.
It’s a complete waste of time and energy suck.
So whenever possible, play with tempo and move forward. No defensive or scared moves without a very good reason. Play with tempo.
