My friends make fun of me till now, because still now, I believe in the principle "Slow and steady wins the race" and am not ready to change for it for any one or under any pressure :P :P :P

Being 'slow and steady' is okay in literature, arts, music where quality and not quantity matters more. But if you are in defence or police, being slow will not work.

In Police and defense also, hasty decisions won't work...but decisions taken with patience, wisdom and time will work better. Sure!

Even in literary or artistic works,time element is vital.Some of our great masterpieces were based on some brilliant bursts of ideas!

Even the winner in Olympics race starts in slow and steady mood....That's why he attains his peak speed at the appropriate time to reach the top.
Those who starts fast at first will get tired before he reaches his half way and can't reach his finishing point.
Also, haste is only a waste.....nothing else

It depends on the situation sometime to act fast can be harmful and sometimes slowness can be harmful. :)

Proverb actually means, we should be calm enough while taking our decisions. Also, we should move up step by step. Sudden acts may result in repent.

Suppose we want the 20th earthen pot which in the lowest position, what should we do? Take the 19 pots placed top on it before reaching your desired one.....Isn't it? ha ha

It depends on the situation sometime to act

Elephants were in army in ancient times. But being slow, they are now not employed in army. But still horses and dogs work in army.

You Know elephant is a royal animal and walks on his own pace. He would only walk for some one when he is in love with him. But once he walks fast nothing to stop him. He walks/runs real fast.

You know in this case an elephant is the ideal choice, he never walks fast unless a situation demands so, but when he does nothing can stop him. So do as romans do while in Rome.
