According to Obama’s play book, Rules For Radicals by Saul Alinsky, rule number seven states that “a conflict that drags on too long becomes a drag.”
Among the reasons is the simple fact that human beings can sustain an interest in a particular subject only over a limited period of time. The concentration, the emotional fervor, even the physical energy, a particular experience that is exciting, challenging, and inviting, can last just so long–this is true of the gamut of human behavior from sex to conflict. After a period of time it becomes monotonous, repetitive, an emotional treadmill, and worse than anything else, a bore. From the moment the tactician engages in conflict, his enemy is time.
