Have faith in 'The List'
Well as I have made it clear that I have found new employment, this has actually been crossed off from the things that I intend to do known as ‘the list’.
I think ‘the list’ is something we all have in common. Struggling against the daily grind and trying to make sense out of our day to day activities can seem daunting more often than not. If you are inherently lazy as am I, you regularly come to a point where you view yourself as your own arch enemy.
Struggling against meaninglessness brought about by your own lack of initiative is something that us lazy people know all too well. I know people who in their spare time can spend an entire afternoon plunked in front of the TV while others around them get their dinner and clean their clothes. I for one am deathly afraid of becoming like this. At times I have found it all too easy to stay in one mode for an extended amount of time and to find at the end of the day that my lack of productivity seems to mock my very existence.
Is this getting a little ‘angsty’?
Anyway connect with me if you can and if you can’t and happen to be a perfectly self sufficient beaming bright individual than rack off.
So where was I? Ah yes ‘the list’!
This trusty little technique seems to be the desperate counter to unproductively which as explained is the devil manifested.
Ironically the relationship us lazy people have with ‘the list’ is complex. Yes it is our saviour against meaninglessness, but it is met with resentment for it entails productivity which is the shallow intolerance of a lazy individual. However, after the initial struggle, relief, happiness and self worth is felt as a result of production. (this is beginning to sound a little psycho but what the heck)
To put things into perspective, the struggle lazy people have with ‘the list’ is the same between overweight people with ‘the diet’.
So the advice to my fellow lazy individuals is do not give up hope in ‘the list’. Keep it alive and active. Keep producing things to make you happy in life and dodge that drain of lazy non-existence.
