Fast Lane or Right Path

We have a discussion on Psalm 1 today and the topic of discussion was Fast Lane or Right Path.

We admit being on the right path is the way, but my question and observation is we still try to fast lane, many a times, 'if we can'.

Though hard to admit, but think about it.
If if our normal day to day dealings, we still tend to think about taking the Fast Lane and do tend to take the Fast Lane, what makes we think when it comes to spiritual matters, we don't adopt the same attitiude.

If we claim we don't, two possibilities (in my opnion)
1) We are hypocrites, or
2) We act 'too right' with God.
