Busy...

“It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is : what are we busy about ?” - Henry David Thoreau 

Okay, I’ll admit it. Yesterday I was ‘busy’. I wasn’t working on my most critical long-term tasks and I wasn’t developing myself towards my long-term goals. Instead I was rushing around doing things that needed to be done, but not necessarily done right there and then. 

Occasionally I think we need to have ‘busy’ days, because long-term goals are just that - long-term - and sometimes it feels good to look at a long list of completed tasks and know that they are done. We just don’t want to let being ‘busy’ become a regular habit…
