In this brief YouTube video, speaker Shanli Liu, CPA, CTP, argues that the word “busy” functions as a silent killer of connection, communication, and relationships. By over‑filling our schedules (busy = volume) and moving through life in a constant hurry (hurry = pace), we eliminate the space needed for meaningful interactions and for connecting with ourselves. The combination of volume and pace, according to the speaker, snuffs out the opportunity for “magic” and authentic connection in our lives.

There is a silent killer of connection, communication, conversations, relationships in our life, and it's the word busy. When you fill your schedule so full of things, you eliminate the chance for magic to happen in your life, for connection to happen in your life. So busy talks about volume, hurry talks about pace. Together they are a horrible combination. They have a way of snuffing out any connection that we can have with other people, including connection with yourself.
