Hmm, but if the lazy guy is a genius then inspiration would hit very frequently, the only problem would be that he would most likely not work on it, no? And well, I think I agree on the hard-working idea.

Well, the hard-working guy wouldn't know what skills he would want to learn, wheareas the genius would most likely know that he has to learn more stuff, but not do anything about it.

That's the problem. The hard-working guy just does what he does because he has to, not necessarily because he wants to. His goal is to do his work, but further than that he has no vision. So would the hard-worker really outdo the lazy genius?
