An article at the website Zenhabits lists 52 ways to be happier. Here’s my favourite:
#51 Be lazy. There’s a time to be productive, and there’s a time to be plain ol’ lazy. I like the latter, and do it every chance I get. Does that make me a lazy person? Probably not, but even if it does, I don’t care. It makes me happy, and the kids love being lazy with me.
The great thing about the list is that the writer often writes about ways to be more productive. But then again, laziness can be defined as doing the least amount of work to achieve the desired effect. Sounds like productivity to me….
