We humans tend to be impatient creatures but some individuals are always in a hurry. Ever conscious of the time and date, they strive to be productive each and every minute of their lives. They are intolerant of lines and avoid mass transit due to its frequent stops and unpredictable schedule. Planning ahead, they are keenly aware of upcoming events, purchasing holiday and birthday gifts months in advance and creating agendas for their infrequent vacations.
For them, speed and efficiency are essential; travel must utilize the most direct route to their destination and outdoor activities, such as hiking, are primarily a means of getting some exercise. Proud of their multitasking skills, they loathe idleness and despise anyone who appears to be engaging in unproductive relaxation.
While these individuals claim to get the most out of life, one doubts that they truly savor the journey. Their bucket list is not a means to enrich their lives but, rather, is just another set of goals to reach before they die. In the end, their many achievements will provide a wealth of material for their biographer or obituary but they will have spent their life rushing toward death.
