The world today has evolved to become a fast-paced whirlpool of conflicting thoughts, hopes, vainness, expectations, failure and success into which the human race has been embroiled. The average man is constantly on different pursuits simultaneously, but unfortunately, most of them are not even worthy of his attentions but sadly enough, he doesn’t know. Born free with a clean slate, he is brought up from childhood to chase after everything within reach, to take every action he can take, to blur the difference between “needs” and want, and to diversify his efforts.
