We are living in a world where everything is about maximizing. Be it productivity, wealth or happiness. We are so lost in this race that we end up sailing in many boats at the same time.
In the early days, we self gloat our productivity. As we progress, managing many fronts get difficult. We end up like a headless chicken running everywhere and trying out everything.
Our human mind has limited resources focusing on one thing until the end is what takes us to the end of our journey.
