What I mean is, money comes and goes: We all want it, but eventually it gets to be more of a nuisance as far as motivation is concerned. I think laziness is really cured (at least held back) by having a master goal of life that everything you do points you toward. Then, working is natural and each task is just a step. Anyway, great article! I made a comedy video about overcoming laziness that you should check out: http://youtu.be/kpShPFMp1h8 I agree that greed is quite a motivator, but I do think it’s a fleeting one.

I never thought of being "busy" as a sign of laziness. It seems counter intuitive, but it does make sense. Because sometimes I do say I'm too busy to do things I don't want to do!

Rather I find I am giving away to other my time and money. I need to stop that and be greedier literally. LOL:) I am extremely greedy in my mind but I very rarely act on that greed.

When I saw your comment on my blog, I was intrigued. Some say there is no such thing as coincidence and it happens that a neighbor had invited me to a free afternoon seminar of Rich Dad/Poor Dad to launch your own business. You asked me to comment on our financial path. Ours was quite traditional, very hard work and very frugal living. But as I look around at our circle of friends, which include both entrepreneurs and fellow professional lawyers and doctors, the entrepreneurs are WAY ahead in sheer net worth. And looking back, I think we may have not thought big enough. It is only now, when we interact with so many successful business people our own age, that I see it IS doable to accomplish amazing things. And I'm in the process of starting my own company. The fact you are doing so much "big thinking" in your twenties is impressive. I suspect you will achieve a lot. I liked your article about being busy as being lazy. There is something to that and I think I'll file that concept away in my mind to mull over. Best wishes on your journey. You're FAR ahead of the pack to be where you are already. Just keep doing good, helping others, and keeping your goals right in front of you and there are no limits. Eileen I think this is an interesting concept.

But a person can be called a lazy one, when he is not doing what he is supposed to do. I also think that there are really no lazy people, there are only uninterested people.

I always think about how much money that i can get with my current work if i face laziness. And it is working great to overcome laziness each time.
