Urgency is largely illusory. That is, generated by imaginative constructs. No situation is truly urgent which does not include potential loss of life. And in those cases, speed and skill are in order, the emergency-urgency response. Less beneficial is urgent overlay on our lives which can be, for lack of any other good reason, our way of motivating ourselves . . . taking small tasks into a panicked crescendo of stressful function. The world will not end if the cat scratches a sofa; the dog throws up on the rug; a child's room has exploded somehow into an unrecognizable mess.
Just chill. Realize that there is flow until it is dammed unnecessarily -- go with that. Breathe and go. Fretting will not solve a self-generated crisis. Overreacting requires more energy than any life encounter deserves.
