Overall?  If you're going to write, try to write well.  Most writers wish
to communicate something, and the better you're able to write, the better
you'll be able to accomplish your goal.  Good writing isn't rushed unless
the writer is one with the emotions conveyed on paper, in which the
madness contributes to the rush.

That's fine in principle, but, like other "writing tips," I think it
would help people a lot more if you pointed to specific places where
this is a problem. Reading this, I have no idea whether you think it
applies to anything I've written and if so, what. It's easy for all of
us to agree in the abstract that patience is good and rushing is bad,
but that does us little good until we look at each others' writing and
point out particular places where we need to slow down.
