Urgency is Poisonous
Wow. Another thought-provoking post over at Signal vs. Noise. And quite a bit of discussion as well.

The comments are also very insightful. 37Signals certainly challenges the notion that putting in tons of hours is the path to success.
This ties in neatly with a previous post from last June, entitled (Too Much) Time Pressure Affects Creativity.
