Create environment first

Fast food, slow food. Fast vacations, slow vacations. Fast reading, slow reading. Fast speaking, slow speaking. Which part is your favourite? There is no correct answer, but somehow harmony and life enjoyment in my head are related more with the word "slow" than "fast". As the great Greek philosopher Seneca many years back pointed out, slow speaking is more influential, inspiring, and practical. But before you can have the comfort of practising it, you need to create an environment in which you can speak slowly. When you need to make an event take care of the environment no less than the event itself. The right environment is half a job for your event ;)
