“Having no time” has become the ultimate modern-day status symbol We have the fastest means of transport, smartest gadgets of electronics, swift ways of communication, and so on. Even then there is lack of time. I wonder why?
Dear Dr. Hynes,
This question is very important and realistic.
The speed of change in today's world forces us to do our work faster. In fact, it is an inner sense. We just want to get things done faster to get to the next work, which makes us unable to do some of our works. In fact, this inner sense is the product of our contemporary multilateral thinking, work and life. I think, instead of involving with all the changes (such as technological changes, etc.) in all aspects of life, we must use them to develop our own field of expertise. Then, with the peace of mind, we will develop the knowledge of our field and serve the international community.
Thank you.
Dr. Emadoddin Ghazi, your thoughtful response is highly commendable. Thank you for your participation.
Dear Dr. Hynes,
I also thank you for your important question.
sincerely.
People have engaged themselves in meaningless work which leaves no room for free time. They are always rushing after things.
There is time: it is enough time but not organizing time is what makes the person realize that time is not enough.
As Kaukab Abid Azhar pointed we are madly engaged in meaningless work in a rat race!
I agree with Sajda Taha Mahmood . For an ambitious person, time is waning! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing insights Israa Burhanuddin Abdurrahman & Afraa Ibrahim ! Unable to manage time- another reason!
Wonderful response Fateh Boutekouk
! I really appreciate it. Lack of contentment and sense of thankfulness to Almighty is the chief reason!
Thank you Dr-Maysoon ALI A-ALHadi , Israa Burhanuddin Abdurrahman , Fateh Boutekouk
, Afraa Ibrahim , Sajda Taha Mahmood , Kaukab Abid Azhar for your great thoughts and participation!Regards,

The so called "hurry sickness" has been caused by increasing prevalence of technology like cell phones, pagers, and laptop computers. We can bring work at , into our bedrooms and even on our vacations. Time has sped up and there is more pressure in the same number of hours.
There are some reasons .
I agree with the terminology "modern day status symbol" to denote being busy. When you come to think of it many people are staging this show of being busy for an imaginary audience. With proper time management and prioritization this self-created crisis can be solved easily. Maybe some want to hide under the cloak of being busy, some are addicted to it, while some others are genuinely busy (for example a single mother taking care of children and having to work 3 jobs to make ends meet.)
It is very true Reza Biria , Maha Sami ! Modern gadgets when they invade bedrooms and vocations, they invade our peace in our family under the pretext of being busy!
Wonderful Syed Zafar Sultan Rizvi for your great insights! Very helpful to ponder!
Work alcoholic yes, as Syed Zafar Sultan Rizvi describes it drives to meaningless in life at one point!
Yes I agree with Srini Vasan ! There are some genuine people who are really busy! Your example - a single mother taking care of children and having to work 3 jobs to make ends meet, is an eye-opener!
Thank you so much Srini Vasan , Syed Zafar Sultan Rizvi , Reza Biria , Maha Sami for your valuable participation with great insights!
