Work has a way of pulling us in. That’s a fact. But the real problem starts when we go all-in on hustle mode and completely forget how to rest. Even on vacation, we act like maniacs — starting home renovations, fixing random stuff in the garage, doing anything as long as we’re not sitting still. Don’t feed us, just let us work!
Meanwhile, right next door, there are true masters of laziness. And believe it or not, they’re doing just fine — sometimes even better than we are. Real lazy people are actually wise, well-organized, and oddly efficient. And if you want to truly enjoy life, you should take notes from them once in a while.
AdmiGram.com has prepared a priceless guide from the real pros of doing nothing — one that deserves to be printed out and pinned to the wall. And yes, every workaholic should sneak a look at it from time to time.
The 10 Commandments of the Wise Lazy Person
- If you feel the urge to work, sit down. Wait. It will pass.
- Relax. No one has ever died from resting.
- If you see someone resting, help them.
- If you can do something tomorrow, do it the day after tomorrow.
- Work as little as possible — let someone else handle it.
- Rest during the day so you can sleep at night.
- Love your bed as you love yourself.
- Work is sacred. Don’t touch it.
- If work is supposed to be healthy, let sick people do it.
- We’re born tired — and we live to rest.
