Lazy sacks have balls
Since childhood, we have been told that we have to be “hard-working.”
Otherwise there will be trouble. Bad grades. No pay.
The main reason why people are hardworking is not motivation and passion, but fear of punishment.
“If I don’t publish an article this Friday, I’ll be violating my editorial schedule.”
“If I don’t finish the book by November, I’ll miss my launch date.”
“If I don’t send out a newsletter today, I will disappoint the reader’s expectations.”
This fear of punishment is bulgaria telegram screening a terrible state for an author and blogger. Because if you are afraid of punishment, you try to do everything right. To be perfect. To not miss anything. To meet expectations.
Such people are rushed and hunted by their duties and appointments.
I don't think creative texts can emerge in such a state.
Therefore, allow yourself to be lazy.
Of course, that takes courage.
It takes courage to break your editorial calendar if it helps your creativity.
It takes courage to push back the deadline to create a truly great book – not some “I wrote that in a weekend” rubbish.
Allow yourself to be lazy sometimes – I emphasize sometimes. It is liberating and relieving.
