There’s probably already a thread on this. But I’m too lazy to look for it.
Are you lazy? How much so?
I’ve just realized I’m chronically lazy. As in it’s a problem, not just a nuisance to my everyday existence.
See, I’ve been unemployed since December. I am really fortunate that I received a good severance, had a lot of vacation racked up, and a healthy bonus that has, and for a while longer will continue to, kept me happily eating and paying rent and bills. But this, in hindsight, has been the start of a bad trend: not caring about anything or motivated to do anything.
That includes looking for work. I just am too lazy to do it. I think about it all the time, but resign myself to doing it tomorrow. Luckily, tomorrow isn’t an easy word to hold someone to. There’s always another tomorrow that leaves the current ‘today’ open. It’s really pathetic. On the job front though, I really don’t want to go back to what I was doing before, which is a tough situation to be in, being I’ve done what I do since I was 17 and now have adjusted to the pay it brings (if I were to be paid).
This leads me to my second observation. I’ve had months, literally, to do all those little things I always say I’m going to do when I find a little time, or will do when I take a vacation. Organize the DVD collection, make the ultimate OT DVD, wax the car, clean the car, organize the closet, build a network music server, work out, lose weight, read more books, go to the beach, sell my old junk on ebay, fix my projector screen, go to the dentist, learn to play the guitar… It’s an endless list of personally satisfying objectives, all left undone due to complete laziness.
Here it is, May, and hardly anything has been done. Where has the time gone?
So my question is, are you lazy too?
