Buy on AmazonWonderful little book full of lessons on live a fulfilling life.
So much of the material is on not being idle. Putting each minute of your life to good use. The lesson did not come across as being PRODUCTIVE (the modern definition). But instead about not wasting time on things that do not bring fulfillment. Not being lazy.
Stay clean. Be kind. All of those things. Basic I know. And I don’t mind it. I love reading old books and this was written in the 1700s.
