Just my thoughts #0564

A willingness to work less and play more is often reviled more than an attitude of passion and hard work. Implicitly, the stereotypes that “live passionately is cool” and “you must succeed as much as you try” are ingrained in our consciousness. However, this perspective overlooks another significant, less visible aspect: efficiency. The issue lies not in laziness but in settling for reality; instead, we should focus on making life more efficient to uncover the benefits of laziness, which has indeed changed the world in revolutionary ways. I am very interested in laziness. Revolutionary opportunities often lurk among lazy people. Nonetheless, that doesn’t mean I dislike hardworking individuals. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Citizens from countries with different road systems are more likely to encounter traffic accidents at crosswalks when visiting other nations. This occurs because their instinctive caution is directed in the wrong way. The complexities of road traffic direction are surprisingly intricate. Traffic patterns are shaped by a blend of historical factors, governing behaviors, technology, and cultural practices. The safety and intricacy of older roads, once shared by horses, carriages, cars, bicycles, and pedestrians, differ completely from today’s well-defined driveways and sidewalks. Consequently, laws establish the directions for crossing streets. When examining the reasons and history behind any rule, it becomes apparent that achieving these conventions is rarely straightforward. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
