“I have worked in various fields since I graduated from university: charitable organizations, cultural organizations, libraries, translation… Oh, I forgot, before all that, a meat factory where everyone raced the machines, finishing one task to start another. We were all in a hurry, and you might see some workers tired and some sweating. As for me, the more my energy increased, the more my hair turned into a messy hairstyle, as if it were a nest for birds… This is how the pace of work leaves its mark on everyone except for one of our colleagues nicknamed ‘the lazy’.”
“It’s strange that this lazy person had no problems with the factory management; on the contrary, most of the supervisors praised him. Perhaps that is a cause for wonder, but let me explain the matter to you.”
Bill Gates says, “I will choose the lazy person to do the hardest jobs because they will find an easy way to do it.” I have literally noticed this in the case of this lazy colleague… So how do they find easier ways to accomplish the hardest tasks?
“They exploit others to do their work on their behalf; it seems mean, but it is a core skill in work.”
“They always ask for help instead of relying on themselves, which saves them time in learning from others’ mistakes.”
“No one expects them to be perfect, which relieves the pressure on them and helps them start without worry, so they are not afraid of failure.”
“They can make boring tasks very enjoyable, they love listening to music while working, they take a lot of time to rest, making work fun as if it were a game.”
“They can handle problems with difficult pressures well because they are already providing energy — they always feel relaxed.”
“They want to avoid work and focus only on the 20% of tasks that lead to the greatest possible results.”
“Because of the intelligence of (( the most amazing lazy person )) I have ever known on the face of the earth, I left my job at the factory after learning a harsh lesson, for which I paid a great deal in physical effort due to doing the tasks that he was supposed to do.”
