If the ground below you swells and all around they are rushing, squacking, pushing you to go right or left...then stop.
Stop yourself and think, "What do I need right now?"
If all you need is a dry brick then you are in a good position. A position that does not elevate you in rank, but gives you perspective on the others rushing about. There you can ponder, "I was younger once too, I rushed more, but now I have this dry brick all to myself."
