On brevity

NATHAN A. TALBOT

Some of our actions deserve extensive planning, comprehensive exploration, voluminous research.

But others do not. Many, in fact, call for brevity—a crisp, concise approach. Brevity should never sacrifice quality but should be the clear-cut result of increased efficiency. But whether it is action characterized by brevity or by extensive planning, it will be more effective if it embodies spiritual action derived from the divine Mind.

Mind is all-acting. This action is never wasted; it is always purposeful, specific, exact. Mind's action never lingers; its allness never includes aimless being. Mind acts with incisive design. Divine consciousness is precise, definite. And man images this vital action.
