We're happier when busy

Like most self-employed people I enjoy being busy.

Recently I came across a really interesting study in the Psychological Science journal that says that human beings are happier when busy even though we're usually more inclined towards idleness.  I'm especially intrigued by new thinking in airport design whereby the distance you need to travel to get to baggage reclaim is increased so less time is spent standing around waiting.
