“Never confuse movement with action.”
— Ernest Hemingway

Simplified Meaning:
Moving around a lot doesn't always mean you're getting things done. Think of someone cleaning their house. They might spend hours rearranging furniture, but if they don't actually dust or vacuum, the house isn't any cleaner. Similarly, a student might spend days organizing their desk, but if they're not studying, they're not learning anything new. It's important to focus on activities that bring you closer to your goals. Just because you're busy doesn't mean you're being productive. So, always aim to do things that really matter and help you make real progress.
