A Little Thing Called Laziness
July 08, 2018
In general, there are two types of human characters in carrying out their daily activities. Active and inactive. Today, there will always be a comparison between active and inactive. Usually, the active one will get good points in every moment of the conversation. Maybe in some cases, it's justified. And for some people, they will think of it as motivation.
Well, hi peeps! Welcome.
However,
the problem is, we often judge a person quickly, cursing and making a distance
with everyone who has a character that is opposite to us. We do not care about
the background, and we do not want to know what the reason someone does
something. It is like to show “You are all wrong, I am right, and the best.”
So,
what causes a person to be inactive? I think the answer is a lack of goals and
purpose. If you give someone a good enough reason to do something, they will do
it. People who don’t seem to do anything just haven’t found a good enough
reason to do anything. Lazy students don’t study because they don’t see the
point in studying. Then, the office worker feels lazy to go to work because
it’s boring. If we give them a reason, a strong enough reason, I think they
will take action.
For
example, if you are too lazy to clean out your own room, would your mother pointing
your face help you take action? Of you are too lazy to go to the market,
would you go if someone offered you some money to go? Or if you don't like
reading or writing, would you do if there is a reward for those activities?
Well, the reason can be positive or negative as long as it’s strong enough to
induce action. Of course.
Then,
as the conclusion, I think the bottom line of knowing how to overcome laziness
comes down to finding enough reasons to take action. Action will lead to
success while inaction will lead to failure. Before you take action though, you
need a compelling reason to do so. To motivate someone who is lazy, what we
need to do is help them find purpose and enough reasons to work towards a
certain goal.***
