Laziness

What is laziness ?

I believe laziness comes from the lack of motivation.
Some might say that its the lack of discipline that makes one lazy.

Though both can be accepted , I believe that it is more accurate to define laziness as
the lack of motivation.
At least in my perspective.

Cause the way I see it, you can't become un-lazy by being disciplined.
Sure the person might convey un-laziness after being disciplined,
but that's just because he/she was cultured/trained/controlled to comply to
a specific character or pattern of behavior.

To me, it is the motivation that breaks this habit.
I believe that a person with the greatest of motivations will supersede a person with the greatest of discipline.

So, if there was a battle to the death between a motivated Ninja and a disciplined Ninja,
the motivated Ninja would win.
Now that I think of it, being a Ninja is all about the discipline, so scratch that last example.



If there was a battle to the death between a motivated glucose molecule and a disciplined glucose molecule, then why would they be fighting in the first place?

Well the point I'm trying to make may be loosely translated with the following quote;

"No one is willing to die for a vision. People will die for a cause."

BUT being lazy isn't all that bad.

For one, it promotes efficiency.

For instance, a lazy person would think of the cheapest, easiest, fastest and least amount of energy taken alternative way to achieve a certain goal.

Thats why we have the remote control.

Because someone was too lazy to get up and change the channels.

Thats why we have the microwave.

Because someone was too lazy to pre-heat the oven or light the stove to heat/cook their food.

Thats why we have bottled water.

Because someone was too lazy to go up the hill and fetch a pail of water

or maybe they did go up the hill but ended up tumbling after. *sniggers*
