Divorce Antimony
The phrase has its roots in medieval medicine and alchemy. Antimony (antimony) was a popular ingredient for medicine, but the process of its preparation required incredible patience: the material had to be ground or melted for a long time and slowly. Pharmacists, engaged in this monotonous work, often indulged in endless and empty conversations to somehow pass the hours.
🔵 How ironic: the process that was originally supposed to lead to the creation of a medicine (a useful product) has become a symbol of wasting time. The word sounds beautiful and scientific, but behind it hides the usual "literal water".
🔵Essence: This is a metaphor for empty logic, long delays and excessive softness where clarity and determination are required. Creating antimony means "talking on the teeth" to yourself and those around you.
🔵Moral: Don't waste energy on meaningless introductions. If the matter requires a solution, it is better to get to the matter immediately, otherwise, while "rubbing the antimony", you may miss the moment when the medicine can really help.
