The Lazy Way to Success

Last week, one of this blog’s treasured readers politely suggested that my take on life wasn’t practical for the real world. He suggested it was far more practical to compromise – to divide one’s life between a “tolerable” job/career to pay the bills and an “after(job)life” characterized by a passionate pursuit of something or other.

For the record, I am not a big fan of the so-called “real world.” The real world has been built on the fraudulent premise that hard work has value.

So here it is at point-blank range: Hard work is worthless. No, it is worse than worthless. It is downright harmful and should be avoided at all costs.
