Roar of the engine, a wildcat

Ive never written a haiku before, but I had to. It was tricky! I think it almost comes close to describing the joy of riding. Almost.

Life is too short, no matter how long it is. Because theres just too much to experience. The volume of things is growing at an insane rate. We live in an age where theres a million different things to watch, read, listen to…on and on. Creators are pumping out better and better content at ever increasing rates, which is itself a very positive sign of a societal shift towards creativity. Creativity being, I believe, the greatest strength of humanity. Life is too short, no matter how long it is. Because theres just too much to experience.

But life doesnt have to *seem* too short. While it will always remain so, we have enormous power over our perception of time. Inspired by [this article](https://medium.com/the-mission/why-there-is-no-such-thing-as-time-management-4d514a21060a), Id encourage you to say screw it to balance. Focus. Focus on one thing completely, give it all of your attention. All of your time. Then focus on something else. Dont try and balance your time between a million different things. I myself am guilty of this since I love to do a million different things, am very much a jack of all trades. But life doesnt have to *seem* too short.

> William PennTime is what we want most, but… what we use worst.Trying to do everything at once will confuse and overwhelm you and rapidly burn you out. Find a focus, concentrate on it to its fullest, and then find the next. Thats the key to 10xing your achievements, and to stretching out your perception of timing. To giving you the time to achieve all that you want and more. Trying to do everything at once will confuse and overwhelm you and rapidly burn you out.

We as in humanity.
An individual human is special. Every goddamn one of us. And the systematic and historic failure to recognise this is a crime. But that is beside the point of this particular piece.
