Purposive In The Midst Of Being Busy

Its been awhile....I hope someone missed me. The past few weeks have been hectic with a capital H....one assignment after another, tests, tests and tests, project....even now that school has closed I still find myself being beyond busy. In the midst of all of this "busyness" something dawned on me....and that is: the importance of being purposive in all of your actions. Don't let the tyranny of the urgent catch up with you; let your eye be single (focused on that thing which you consider most important) and then your whole life will be filled with light and clarity. In Nigeria it is particularly difficult to focus, but focus anyways.
And then for some contrast, I think you guys should learn to do some random but productive thinking and walking...helps take off the load sometimes in the midst of the busyness. As Socrates put it..."Beware the barrenness of a busy life"
