<h1 style="text-align: center;">Business VS Busy-ness VS laziness</h1>
<h2>&nbsp;</h2>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Busy-ness in the Tibetan tradition is considered the most extreme form of laziness. </strong>Because when you are busy you can turn your brain off. You&rsquo;re on the treadmill. The only&nbsp; intelligence comes in the morning when you make your To Do list and you get rid of all the possible space that could happen in your day.</span> - <a href="http://www.elephantjournal.com/2008/09/dr-reggie-ray-busy-ness-is-laziness/">Elephant Journal, 2008</a></p>

<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: large;">"</span><span style="font-size: small;">I'm <strong>not saying you're lazy</strong> so don't get mad quite yet. I'm saying that using <strong>"I'm too busy" as an excuse</strong> or a reason <strong>to not do</strong> something <strong>important to you</strong>, then you might want to give your situation a closer look. I'm saying that sometimes we are busy with work, but not the kind of work we <strong>should </strong>be busy with.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: large;">"</span><span style="font-size: small;">So when we say "being busy is a form of being lazy" we're saying <strong>think about what's important</strong>, and <strong>think about the work you're doing</strong>. Is it moving the ball forward? <strong>Is it moving YOUR BALL forward.</strong> The Ball that you care about?</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: large;">"</span><span style="font-size: small;">I have an hour set aside once a week that's for a meeting. <strong>The meeting is with myself. No one else comes to this meeting but me</strong>. I think about what I'm doing, where I'm going, and what I need to be working on. I use this meeting to think about the business and <em>busyness </em>of my previous week. I think about what busy work I did that was a waste of time, and try to setup myself up for success in the coming week</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="font-size: large;">"</span><span style="font-size: small;">It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of business. It's fun to play Tetris with your Outlook calendar</span>.</p>
