Occupied But Unproductive

There is a popular saying that busyness doesn't mean dutifulness. Someone can be busy and yet guilty. Being occupied didn't mean you are doing the right thing, therefore you can be occupied and still remain unproductive.
What am I then driving at?

Is it that we shouldn't be busy again? No sir/ma, I am not saying. Did you now say to be occupied is a great mistake? Obviously not at all boss.

Many people are on the downward trend of excusing the occupation for the reason for the unproductivity. Should that be acceptable? Can we believe that? Is it right? Today, today, you will get to know. Don't be too in a hurry to leave this writeup. Wait patiently to finish reading because you are about to be exposes to something invaluable or without price. In the shortest time, you will get to know why some eager working class still end up being frustrated and discomfited.

Am I sounding sense to you at all? OK, let us vote. Though, I am not a politician but I love to be precise.

Now, you are going to do me a favour. Write something's that you know that are very important to do everyday but are not necessary. Just list about ten of them. Again, list some things that you know that are neither necessary mor important that people do everyday, make sure this list exceed the first one. Now, just in front, list about five things that are necessary and important to do everyday. Be faithful and make sure you do that.

What are your findings? If you truly do that, you will find out that most things we engage in are neither necessary or important. We are too preoccupied with nonessential things. Only few people do important but not necessary while the smallest votes go in favour of those that do important and necessary.

That's life for you.

Well, I can't blame some people for this. Some Pharaohs are brain behind it. They force them to do what is neither important or necessary. Just as in case of Solomon. He was forced by his brethren to keep their vineyards, dress and make them flourish while his own vineyard is left unkempt. Is this not great sickness? Song of Solomon1:6 Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.

If you are in that custody, you better find a way to get yourself out of it.

The previous is pardonable while this will be pathetic. At least, someone is forcing you in that sense. What of a situation whereby you willingly refused to do what is necessary and important? What of those people that refused to heed instructions from well learned and experienced people? What of the the reject training and home upbringings? Are their parents at faults? Is the community at fault? Is the government at fault?

We have some extremists that went as far as bluntly rejecting every word of advise said to them. No wonder, no matter how government and NGOs try to create millions of jobs, some will never still be employed. It's not a curse, it a matter of personal decision. I don't believe there are no jobs everywhere. I don't believe poverty strikes hard in every country. In fact, where you say there is poverty, some people still eat three square meals and throw away some.

Where you say there is no more, some people still spend extravagantly on their ceremonies. In Nigeria, for example, you can't believe she is poor. Nigeria is rich. Some people are collect money ruining to millions of nigeria withing a period of 30 working days. So, what are you now telling me?

You wi only get rid of poverty if you do the right thing at the right time with the right motive. You don't need to be occupied with things that are nonessential. 

You don't need to do things that will render you unproductive.

You don't need to take a long work that will waste yur precious time.

You don't necessarily need to engage yourself in a

long conversations that will jeopardise your goal for the day.

Be wise!

Don't be otherwise.

Do the right thing at the right time.

And don't depend on your future might.

You have the strength now,

Prepare your future luxury and don't wait for a future of unknown.

Be occupied with productive things.
