The combination of speed with the implication of a long road ahead reminds me of a phrase my father-in-law often used: "Don't rush off in the heat without a blanket." It sounds crazy at first until life's nature to change is remembered. Although things may be moving quickly at the moment, the destination or goal is still quite far away; what seems to be the status quo now might turn inside out tomorrow. The three Ps are called for in this case - preparation, patience, and perseverance.
Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in your mind. ~David G. Allen
PJ's, popcorn, patience.
