Yes, if you want something done, ask a busy person.I genuinely feel like she has no concept of what busyness actually is as she's never had to work a real job before. The more you get used to things being a certain way (ie. doing nothing) the more that becomes the norm for you and the less you are able to do as a result
I know this from my own experience, a few years back, I lost my job and I was home for a few months. It was lovely and I enjoyed the free time, but it took me all day to just write an email or pick up a package at the post office.
