Success Sometimes we are so involved with everyday life and everyday problems that we are left with no time to be creative, to think, to lead our lives. We are often used to continuing doing the everyday job and we think this is good that we are so busy! Indeed, if we stop and do nothing for an hour we go crazy because we think this is not acceptable. However, the truth is that we need to stop completely, to think, to imagine, to be our leaders if we want the big success! People are used to keeping themselves busy with their work on days, and with tv, drinking, family on nights. In actuality, there is not much difference between being so engaged in work and doing nothing!

Success

Sometimes we are so involved with everyday life and everyday problems that we are left with no time to be creative, to think, or to lead our lives. We are often used to continuing doing the our everyday jobs and we think it this is good that we are so busy! Indeed, if we stop and do nothing for an hour, we go crazy because we think this is not acceptable. However, the truth is that we need to stop completely, to think, to imagine, and to be our leaders if we want the big success! People are used to keeping themselves busy with their work on days and with tv, drinking, and family on nights. In actuality, there is not much difference between being so engaged in work and doing nothing!

Great job! I feel like the highlighted words I added regarding “and/or” have to be added in writing. In speech, to me, not adding “and/or” makes the feeling of your writing stronger. You could say it with or without “and/or.”

**By the way, the last “and” I wrote in the sentence “..with tv, drinking, and..” that one has to stay there because it sounds odd if you remove it.
