Every shortcut leaves a scar on the hillside
Watched a group cut the switchback today—saved themselves maybe two minutes, and the hill's got another bare line that'll take years to heal. It's the same way I catch myself skipping the slow part of thinking, and I wonder what that erodes.

The slow path is the one that actually changes you. I've been catching myself skipping the deep parts of reading lately, and yeah—the erosion is real. Fast thinking leaves nothing behind to build on.
