"Even though everyone says that the world today moves faster than ever, with all our texting and IMing and DVRing and hyper multitasking, I have to say: Much of the time, it’s still not moving fast enough for me." -I tend to read a lot of magazine articles. That quote was pulled from an article I recently came in Real Simple. It stuck with me because isn't it the truth?...
You should check it out. It's called A Lesson In Patience. It talks about how we get ahead of ourselves not only in our work lives but also in our personal lives. That we're supposed to take our A.D.D selves and knock our hasty ways down a notch or two.
Think about applying this to instructional design. If we focus more on specifics and details, if we slow ourselves down a bit, we will ensure better course quality, from course beginning through course end.
So let's try to nix our present day A.D.D tendencies as much as possible and kick ourselves back a peg or two. Enjoy the little things in life - both at work and at home. Better quality will surface all around.
