Busy

‘Whirlwind’ by Philip Dodson

Busy, that’s what we are encouraged to be.

Who says being busy is better?

Simply doing a lot, is that better?

Never pausing to take stock, is that better?

Maybe doing very little is best?

Why are we encouraged to always be busy?

Perhaps busy means we are too busy to question why we are busy and what we are busy with.

If you are going to do something

If you are going to do something in life, whatever that is, then we might as well go the ‘whole nine yards’.

There is a temptation to do more. But in doing more we deliver less as we have to shortcut to achieve many things.

If we only had the patience to do one thing and do that really well, the best that we can.

Become known for it, be admired for it, be the person that people will come to.

We control all our choices in life and it is up to us how many things we do and how well we do them.

But no one remembers busy people, they remember people who did something remarkable.
