زمینه فرهنگی

Young people in Addis Ababa use this phrase to distance themselves from the 'slow' pace of traditional life, signaling a high-energy, globalized mindset. While the phrase is secular, the concept of 'the appointed time' is deeply religious. Many people feel that if 'the time is now,' it is because God has willed it. In the world of long-distance running, this phrase is used by coaches to tell runners when to make their move and break away from the pack. In the growing Ethiopian tech scene, this is the equivalent of 'Move fast and break things.' It is used to encourage rapid prototyping.
