You might have heard the saying “Slow is smooth and smooth is fast”. But where does it come from. While the Navy Seals gave this idea the second life, it is far from being new.
There is a saying in Latin – “Festina Lente”, which means: “hurry up slowly”. It’s easy to imagine that the ancient Roman Navy Seals could have used this saying in their life and in trainings.
Later, this phrase was adopted by the US Navy Seals and remains this way till our days. 😉
~ 5 thousand years B.C.
However, even before that, the ancient Chinese Navy Seals, according to Sun Tzi, who wrote a book, “The Art of War” roughly 7 thousand years ago used to mention this principle quite often.
