When you hear the word a ‘Book Worm’ what do you think or what you imagine about this word in your mind. Maybe a person who behaves like an insect that glued to the books all the time or maybe a person who has more Brain cells than a normal person. More likely to say that a bookwormish person must have a messy look with books in their left hand and coffee mug in the right hand.
Yes, folks, This is all we have to hear from our parents and elders since childhood Right! Most of us experienced in our childhood that whenever our parents captured us from doing something other than the studies than they arrested us and say
Just go to your room and study, after doing your homework you will get authorization to come out from your prison and play Video games
but after when we finished our homework than we suddenly heard a voice coming towards us
It’s Sleeping Time
This is funny Right! but this is the ‘REALITY’ which I also have experienced. We all have intermingled with bookworms in our lives, while some of them are those who are reading this.
Well, I am not criticizing the book readers or their intellectual interest in having drawn in the oceans of books, but I am trying to convey in this framework that bookwormish is not something that lasts long to live a bumpy life. They need to be ‘PRACTICAL’ in many situations. But unfortunately, when we get to know this thing, we already cross the threshold in practical Life.
Practicality VS Bookwormish
Without vision, you don’t see, and without practicality, the bills don’t get paid’. -PAUL ENGLE
We learn many concepts from our childhood to our graduation level, but what if we don’t know how and where to apply it? This is where we can be stuck when we only rely on books and don’t see the practical sides.
‘Practicality’ is more important to face the harsh realities of life. As the world is moving more towards globalization and development. So to survive in this situation one should be more pragmatic and needs to play on the front end.
The attributes of a bookworm are different from practical life. Bookworm has less will to fight against the risk and start panicking in certain crises in Life. Being a Practical person helps you to develop a problem-solving skill which helps you to overcome the obstacles in Life. So, conventionally the bookwormish person sticks to the books meticulously and misses out on the actual idea of living.
So, being a book reader with a pragmatic attitude can become the best combo that can attract many people and gives opportunities in Life.
“You don’t spend your life hanging around books without learning a thing or two”. – LEMONY SNICKET
