Should life be leisurely or busy?

Recently I get up early, I am pleased with that(though I don`t need going in for farming, lol), the morning began with rush after a short reading time and breakfast, caught bus then started working. Now I am working for two departments and at the same time I am finding another part-time job...am I crazy? I want to get more money because I just bought an apartment on time.
Some friends said to me they were too busy to relax and, some else said they were boring. I have the same feeling--want to be free when super busy, vice versa. Now I want to think of this clearly, which style is better? If people are always not satisfied? or different person has different style? or actually we have no choice?

Personally, I rather to be busy right now when I still young and still can earn money. And someday when I reach my financial independent, I will enjoy my life leisurely. LOL.

I really think that in the end, life should be a balance of the two worlds. You really do not want to lean too far towards one extreme or another, because that could lead to some rather issues. If you are too leisurely, then you will not really get anything of value done. But if you are too busy, then there are times where you feel like everything just keeps going around in circles.
To me, the balanced life would be the best life. There are times where things are just insane, I just enjoy a bit of downtime. But at the same time, in the back of my head, if things got too relaxed, I would really be kind of bored in a different way. And that is just something that no one wants. Boredom can lead to its own set of problems.

Profound saying, yeah I agree with you, balance is so important in any field. Even too much stress or too much elation all will make people stuck in extreme.
Enjoy your day mgamatt.

Leisure is for life that energise our minds to perform nicely. Too much bussiness never gives qualility performance to us. Too much leisure is similar to laziness. Is there is any living where laziness is?

Hello there, I like your first sentence very much. And you are correct, too much leisure is as bad as too little, so perhaps everyone should find out an equilibrium point to live well.
Have a nice day.
