Simplified Meaning:

When someone is always unhappy or dissatisfied, they can never truly relax or feel comfortable. Think of it like a person who is complaining about everything around them, whether it's their job, their house, or even small things like the weather. Because they're always focusing on what’s wrong, they can't sit back and enjoy the good things they have. For example, imagine someone who keeps switching TV channels because nothing seems interesting; they'll never settle on one show and enjoy it because they’re busier criticizing than watching. In real life, if someone constantly complains about their job but never tries to improve their situation or change their attitude, they'll never feel happy or at ease at work. To apply this idea, a person should try focusing on positive aspects and finding contentment in their current situation. By appreciating what they have and working to change what they can, they can find peace and comfort in their life.
