Now a days, everyone is in rush to earn money and defeat others in race of life. All of us want to reach on the top as soon as possible, for that it is important to do work quickly than others. Sometimes rushing in work may result into a disastrous failure that we spend more time to correct them. So, according to me it's important to work slowly to make sure everything is going perfect.

Firstly, when we are in hurry to finish any work it might result into a terrible mistake, that sometimes can't be corrected. Because of that we always feel a guilt from inside. For example, During my 8th grade's exam I was in a rush to finish my paper before my friends, and because of that I forgot to solve few questions of that paper. When result came out I've got very low percents in that exam than my friends.

Secondly, when we do some work in a hurry, it might not be of good quality, and looks imperfect. For instance, when there was a party at our home and I was cooking all the party food by myself. I was trying to finish it faster but it resulted into little bit burnt and raw food and improperly seasoned and no body liked it, and than we took everyone to restaurant.

third reason for my opinion is, work done with patients and concentration always results best. When we learn something it takes time and devotion to become perfect. All scientist do their work with patients and dedication and after research of several months to years, they come up with a formula or treatment method that helps humanity to live better and longer.

As conclusion I want to say that, working slowly with patients results as a sweet fruit and and there is a famous saying that 'Haste and waste'. So, Do your work quickly only when you are 100% sure that it will be perfect otherwise go slow and always give your best.

There is no doubt that career success has a lot of consequences on one’s life. That is why most people are doing their best to build a successful job. I personally believe that taking small thoughtful steps would be better than making risky decisions and going fast. I feel this way for some good reasons, which I will present in the following paragraphs.
First of all, it is important to keep in your mind that it usually takes a lot of time to compensate your mistakes. So, it would be better not to make a lot of mistakes because you may lose your precious time and also your credit in society. Unfortunately, taking so many risky decisions one after another would bring about a lot of damaging consequences. You might lose your bank account, and more importantly working spirit. I think there is no better example than my brother. Sadly, He lost all his achievements making a lot of wrong decisions in 2017.
Secondly, working slowly, one could have enough time to ask for help. It seems to be natural for anybody to make some errors at his/her work, but to invest time and not to make similar mistakes is very crucial. Clearly, those who tend to work quickly and not to invest time pondering over their doings, are more likely to fail at work. As for example, my second sister, Afsane has the habit of careful thinking and evaluating the situation before making any important decision. This is the reason that she is typically a successful person both at work and in her marital status.
In conclusion, I am of the belief that it is more logical to take small steps and move slowly so as to not experience fail in your life. This is because doing this, you could have enough time to think and to ask for somebody else’s consult.
