Thought for the week: Sometimes what you are looking for comes when you are not looking at all.
BUSY
Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it. The more we do, the more we can do. The more busy we are, the more leisure we have. It’s not so much how busy you are, but why you are busy.
The bee is praised. The mosquito is swatted. Never be too busy for your family or friends. Take time also for your life, don’t tie everything up in your job. Live your life so you can feel happiness in your life and then you can enjoy your life and your job,
Your priority is your loved ones, everything else comes next in line. Don’t be too busy to enjoy your life, time is precious, make the most out of it.
