Idleness refers to the state of being idle, inactive etc when it comes to economic prosperity and growth idleness is one thing that fights against it from the times of old till now any individual or even country that has had economic power is one that was not idle but always active engaging in one activity or the other that will be helpful to the economic growth of that person or country

It's simple logic that productivity is what leads to prosperity and wealth creation and this is one universal principle that applies to all both on an individual basis and also for nations looking at the present world that we find ourselves the economic super powers are all producing economies the countries considered as poor are the lazy once who has not been able to engage into production so they depends on the countries that produce and so they become more lazy as the day go by
Finally I want to say that idleness is an enemy of progress, growth and success so in this year 2025  let us do everything possible to make sure that we fight laziness and idleness and channel our energies into something productive so we can create value for ourselves because the level of value a person or nation commands is a function of the problems that a person or nation has solutions to

Idleness may be a problem for society as a whole, but it is often a dream and a goal for an individual. What you call idleness is called passive income in another way. Most people would gladly accept such a lifestyle. And many people live this way, often in their case, government benefits are their passive income. Thus, a parasitic lifestyle is very common, but progress continues anyway. Because it doesn't happen that the whole society is engaged in useful activities. There is always an active part of society and a ballast. And this ballast is needed for some reason, it also has a purpose, because everything in the world is balanced. Therefore, idleness is not an unambiguously negative phenomenon.
