Earlier at work I read an article in the New York Times that claimed that the author was the 'laziest ambition person they knew' and that they are never 'busy'. I think that this is really relevant. Why? Because that is the way life should be.. in all honesty we are pumping ourselves full of voluntary work obligations and extra activities which are just tiring us.. not enriching our lives. We pump our kids full of activities too.. from piano to hockey to extra tutorials for school. Our lives have become so structured that its almost impossible to have fun without thinking about the inevitable.. WORK!
Lets be realistic, it is possible to be the 'laziest ambitious person' and still get somewhere in life. Just because you devote your life to a career does not mean that you cannot have fun while doing it and it does not mean that you have to work every waking moment of the day.
New life plan: be the laziest ambitious person I know... while having the time of my life.. could things get any better?
