About This Quote

The feeling one has no time to get anything done provides the pressure that guarantees one does get some things done. The feeling of being busy is a great thing. When the workload is high, it is often hard to find time to take care of ourselves. However, the feeling of being busy can be paralyzing.

When we are constantly worried about time, we often make bad choices because we are too busy worrying about the things that will happen if we don’t take care of these things right now. The result is that we end up not getting anything done at all.
