Haste and hurry can only bear children with many regrets

“Haste and hurry can only bear children with many regrets.”

African proverb and quote.

“Haste and hurry can only bear children with many regrets.” Have you ever rushed and made a mistake? The proverb warns against acting too quickly and hurriedly. Imagine trying to build a house in a single day. Going too fast would almost certainly result in many mistakes. The same thing happens in life. 

Taking your time helps you to think things through carefully. This avoids regrets later on when you realize you made a bad decision by hurrying. Slow and steady wins the race! Rushing through life does not foster wisdom.
