5) Good planners who know how to plan their future well
6) Unwilling to use hardworking as an excuse
I find the definition 4-6 empowers people and stop resisting laziness. |
The trouble is that you will not find definitions 4 through 6 in any dictionary. You are effectively trying to redefine a common use word.
Perhaps the simplest definition of Lazy is "averse to work". This can be either a good thing or a bad thing depending if the work
has to be done. If a lazy person can avoid (or eliminate the need for) a particular task that's a good thing and it's called "efficiency". But true laziness means avoiding necessary work too.
P.S. Just so you know for future posts, "success" is a noun, and "succeed" is the related verb. For example: "It was a great success." vs "Only lazy people succeed".
