A lazy or slothful person has no relevance in life. They are always a burden to people around them, they are not productive economically or other aspects thereby making them a liability.
This set of idle people don't always like to work, they always see work as some sort of punishment. They are always unwilling to face difficult tasks, they only thinks about the present and not the future. A lazy or indolent person finds utmost satisfaction in just resting and doing absolutely nothing. At the end of the day, they always blame other hardworking persons as if they are responsible for their woes.
If you consider the ways of the ants even though they are tiny creatures, those creatures works tirelessly to give themselves comfort and also make provision for the future in case of unexpected events. The ant is always busy even as a tiny creature. What excuse then do you have to be lazy?
Many have already been trapped in the webs of indolence and they are looking for possible ways to get out of it. I will be mentioning some solutions (medicine) that will help you stop being indolent and lazy.
1. Leave your comfort zone
Some people will not fully understand the meaning of life since they are still in their comfort zone. Staying in the comfort zone incapacitate someone making him to be lazy. A person still living with his or her parents, eating free meal everyday without no hassle will find it difficult to work, they can't simply connect the dots. They justified that act of indolence on the basis that all their needs will always be met by their parents so why do they need to work again. Indolent people always have unreasonable excuses to defend their slothfulness.
Determination and focus is needed to break away from idleness. Make up your mind to set for yourself potential goals and objectives. Motivate yourself and also concentrate on your goal. This will help your mind to be positioned in one place and inevitably you will never be distracted. Laziness is not often the way.
2. Always plan your tasks before you embark on them.
Sometimes people become lazy not because they actually want to, but because there is no planning done by them in doing their work. Right planning will help you set out what you want to do, when you want to do it and where. If there's no proper planning, some will keep postponing their tasks till they were overwhelmed by the bulk of tasks on them. A lazy person is a failure, that's why people always say "if you fail to plan, then you are planning to fail". Planning is very essential in our daily activities. It helps in the management of tasks.
3. Perseverance
To be successful and of course to be relevant, one must practice the virtue of perseverance. Indolent person lacks this. One of the attributes of hardworking and diligent people is that they always persevere even in the midst of challenges and oppositions, they are undaunted.
Consider a man with a family to feed and care for, won't he persevere and endure whatever comes in his way to provide food for his family. Those kind of men are always known for their hardworking spirit and endurance. Some became lazy because they are not moving forward in their business or career and therefore become redundant to themselves and the society. They think they can't make it in their chosen field so they become discouraged and eventually indolent.
Consider Abraham Lincoln, he contested for America President many times before he was elected eventually, consider Thomas Edison too. All these people became something because they are willing to persevere and continue moving.
3. Identity the reasons for your slothfulness.
To some, the cause of their indolence is their peer group. It's always profitable to shun such group if you want to advance in life.
Once the causes are identified, make sure you work on them to improve yourself. For some people to break away from idleness, they have to wake up early especially if they have always waking up late before.
Dare to be different, be ready to take calculated risks. The world today has no space for lazy people. Only diligent and smart people occupy great positions in the world today. Get up out of your slumber and work.
No to indolence
