Out of Work, Near to Successful Life

 

As technology developed very fast, our lives became more comfortable. One example of advanced technologies is time-saving devices. However, many people do more work and spend more time in doing their works than the past in spite of time-saving devices. At the bottom, overheated competitions in our society boosted this kind of situations. People take more burdens than others to defeat them. But lots of works are not the key to win the competitions. In fact, People need to take a rest and have leisure time to be competitive.

Firstly, leisure time gives energy to work with efficiency. Most people always do the same kind of works. They continuously work and work and become bored with that works. Doing routine things, they get tired with that works and lose interests in works. Finally, they would be very stressful to keep their works. However, by spending time in leisure, they can give refreshment to works. Doing leisure activities, they get the chances to do something in other fields. They can enjoy new activities which are really different from their routines. They can have energetic feelings as well as liberties caused by escaping from the boring works. Talking with friends, doing sports activities, they can lay down their stresses and when they come back to work, they can see the works in new ways. Then, the speed of processing the works would be faster than before.

Secondly, people get new insights and confidences to live sound lives through taking rests. Today, many people are so busy doing their works that they have no time to look back their lives. When it comes to living healthy and constructive lives, it is very crucial to think deeply about their lives and have time to do self-reflection. As people spend most of their times in working, they regard some important things in their lives as trivial. In other words, they only focused on their daily lives so they don't see their lives in insightful perspective. They need to have time to think deeply about their lives and whether they are going in the right direction or not. On this point, to spend time in contemplating themselves is more important than to work for long time.  

Some people say that they have no time to contemplate their lives and do leisure activities because they have to succeed in the short times. Of course, achieving one's success in early age is very wonderful but there is saying that going slowly means going fast. Only working harder and longer doesn't bring people successes. They slowly think about their lives and plan how to live wonderful and successful lives. It is difficult to find the best ways to live in one's busy state. Therefore, working longer and harder is not a shortcut to be successful. As a result, people would live more constructive lives if they have time to rest.

Although many time-saving devices were developed, people can't afford to live freely, working longer than before. People can live much happier and successful lives if they give their time to do leisure activities and take rests. It is because leisure activities refresh their feelings and give new energy to work continuously. In addition to this, people would be relaxed and contemplate about their lives to live much valuable lives. Any longer, people don't need to be slaves to works but they can make their lives full of leisure and relaxation.
