Once there were a group of man - a young hot-blood guy and a big number of old folks, doing timber job in a jungle (chopping down trees).
This young chap is very hard working ... he continued to work through the break time and complained that those old folks were wasting times ....having to break few times a day to drink and chat.
As times goes by ... this young guy notice that even though he work thru break time and hardly take rest .... those old folks are just chopping the same amount of tree as he did and sometimes did more than he did .... as if those old folks work through the break time as he did.
So he decided to work harder the next day ....unfortunately the results are even worse !
One day .... one of the old folk invited him for a drink during their break time. That young guy refused and said he has no extra time to spent ! Then the old man smile to him and said, " It was just a waste of effort to keep chopping tree without re-sharpening your knife. Sooner or later you will give up or you have too much energy to spend and exhausted later." Suddenly the young man realised that actually during break time while those old folds having a chat..... they also re-sharpening their knife at the same time ! And that's how they can chop faster than him and spent less time !
The old man said, " What we need is efficiency - making use of our skill and ability intelligently. Only then we can have more times to do other things. Otherwise you will keeps saying ..... I have no time ! "
