One advice from <em>A Manual of Eastern Orthodox Prayers</em> that has proven invaluable when using any prayer book i
s:
<blockquote>
If the time at disposal is short, and the need to begin work is pressing, it is preferable to say only a few of the s
uggested prayers, with attention and zeal, rather than to recite them all in haste and without due concentration.
