Alacrity.

Alacrity: promptness 
of response; cheerful
readiness. That's
what it wants. Celerity:
speed of motion or action,
as well - without these?
We balk and dawdle
and dwell in lassitude's 
tightening hand. Stagnation
sets in. We procrastinate. 
Our energy level tops out 
at fuss. We begin to conclude
what's wrong with us. Which
is too really too unjust, just yet.
That's number one jumping the gun
with a bullet! This time is nowhere
nearly too late to nick! Upset 
your predictions and place 
your bet -

- on you! That's your pick. 
If you do? You'll see. I suggest
let's start with alacrity.
