The B-words


 Being Busy is good. Being Blind is not. If you are Busy doing something you love, something you believe in, something that creates value for the world, you find happiness. If you are "Busy" doing many things without knowing your why or having any clear direction where you are heading, then you are just being Blind. In Mandarin, Busy (忙) and Blind (盲) are pronounced in the exact same way - mang2. Always be clear whether you are being Busy or being Blind. 

Even when you are Busy (and not Blind), you have beware of this B-word: Burnout. Sometimes you just need this other B-word: take a Break.
