Stop Being Lazy

不要再偷懒


Lazy people are annoying –it's like pulling teeth getting them to do anything.

懒人真的很招人烦——得像赶驴磨墨一样逼着他们做事情。

If I can't do something as simple as going to a movie with you without having to factor in an hour of convincing you to get your lazy butt out of bed, I'd rather go alone.

如果我想跟你看一场电影,却不得不花一个小时说服你起床,那我宁愿一个人去看。

People have enough trouble motivating themselves;don't make your friends and family waste their valuable energy motivating you as well。

给自己动力都不是件容易的事情,就别让朋友和家人浪费宝贵的精力再来给你动力了吧。
