laziness

You can't really find a good book on laziness. The people who know much about it are just to lazy to write anything. Anyways, I can look like a mighty lazy guy from the outside. Without saying how I feel about it, I'd like to look at the reasons for my inactivity and ways to become more active. Again, I'm not saying that's what I want to do and I'm not saying that's not, but a tiny bit of research wouldn't hurt.

Pursuit of perfection

I've already written some bits about this. Of course, I'm too lazy to import the bits into this wiki, nor do I think this wiki enough is good enough to serve me for long enough to be bothered about collecting all my prior musings here. And that's what the pursuit of perfection is all about.

We'll be able to do it an easier way later

If you're reading the news regularly, you probably know most of your work is in vain. In just a little while people will be able to do your 8 hour's work in under 5 minutes. So why do it now? It's vastly inefficient anyways. Do you want to make our planet more inefficient than it is today?

Automation

You have to type 40 similar commands 40 times a day. So either you say "this can be done with a script" and start planning to write it (for good), or you say "f*ck it!" and continue typing the commands. You're lazy either way, but the second one doesn't look like you're lazy.

Why bother at all?

If you're not enslaved by a mortgage, or a family of your own, or anything else requiring a shitload of money, you start asking yourself questions like "what is this all about?"
