The Bees Are Busy but Where’s the Honey

Everyone on the planet is busy doing something or other; you almost never see anyone spending their life just lying around doing nothing. Nevertheless, only a few achieve great and meaningful things in their life, the vast majority do not. Why?

It is because most people are aimless, they are only contending with the things that are right in front of them, they do not have an overarching purpose or vision, and maybe do not even have a clear idea why exactly they are doing what they are doing. So they work hard but without a clear objective that extends beyond their immediate concerns, and for this reason they spend their lives toiling without anything meaningful or spectacular to show for it.

How is it that some people achieve a lot? They have a clear aim, they stop and think about what they need to do, and direct their effort to that which they know will bear fruit. This paired with a skilful way of working, application and dedication, they achieve great things.

So whatever activity we undertake, we need to know why we are doing it. We need to think about what results it will bring. If we work in this way, with clears objective and perseverance, definitely we will achieve our goal or at least something close to it.
