Does Taking on Several Different Lines of Work Lead to Failure?
According to a saying of the Commander of the Faithful, taking on many different and scattered pursuits prevents one’s plans and efforts from bearing fruit. The priority should be to focus on a single line of work, while trusting in God and knowing that He is the Provider. Other work may be taken on only if it does not undermine the first undertaking and if one respects the mind’s limited capacity. Otherwise, one’s mental energy is divided, and all one’s efforts come to nothing.
