Letting go of distractions

I am a very outcome driven person. If I can I would rather take two steps than three, that's how I completed a 3 hour Maths exam in 1 and still got a high distinction.
Lately I find that this has worked against me - I've been so preoccupied with expectations and what would happen three days later that I forget to enjoy the process.
So yups, I will slow down and as cliche as it might sound, take the time to smell the roses.
