Laziness Gets a Makeover

Unfortunately, the term "laziness" has been stigmatized with negative connotations. The word is tinged with overtones of sloppiness, and physical lethargy, and mental dullness, and spiritual vulnerability (as in "idle hands are the Devil’s workshop"). Fueling this distorted stereotype are the world’s work-worshippers as they incessantly link laziness with losing.

It’s a bad rap. We all know that there is a highly creative side to laziness. We know laziness as the driving force behind all progress in life. After all, it was Benjamin Franklin himself who said, “I am the laziest man in the world. I invented all those things to save myself from toil.”

In this light, we decided that the word "laziness" needed a makeover to bring out its inner beauty, so we coined a few descriptive terms of our own.

Behold – The New Laziness!

The New Laziness is "smart-lazy."

(Or, if you are a Jimi Hendrix fan, "foxy-lazy.")

The New Laziness is also contributing a vital, dictionary-balancing word that has been painfully missing from our work-obsessed culture – "playaholic."

Who would not want to be one, especially since it is the key attribute that most consistently brings success?

Yes, indeed, the paradigm is shifting. And "neo-lazyism" will lead the way.
