　　Importance of Being Busy

　　Sometimes life becomes so busy that you feel as ifyou are the only person to whom the whole worldhas been merciless and that you are the onlyperson who is working harder than anyone else.Yes,the grass on the other side of the fence is alwaysgreener and fresher.

　　However,the more things one has to do or one is into,the greater the involvement in a mental,physical or social way in these things.Due tothis,one’s own personal problems are out of sight, because all the time one’s mind is thinkingof completing the undertaken tasks.Problems,once they are out of sight are out of mind.

　　Each thing that we do adds a new dimension to our personality.It shapes our thinking andmakes us more organized,experienced, knowledgeable¹ and creative.The time and sweatthat we put in everyday into our tasks is the brick and mortar² of our future.So friends,it isalways better to be busy rather than idle.Now hasn’t everyone heard that an idle mind is thedevil’s workshop? Behind every successful man is a devotedly³ followed busy schedule ratherthan a woman.
