Are You Lazy?
You
delay, but time will not.
– Benjamin
Franklin
There is no substitute for hard work. In this world of
global opportunities and intense competition, hardwork is very important. Compared to 50 years ago, everyone is
working harder. Today’s tennis player has to practice four times harder than
his predecessor. The same applies to any sport, be it football or chess.
Do a very honest audit of your working habit
with the following questions:
- Am I working hard
enough? How many hours do I work per week?
- Am I doing adequate
justice to the role I am holding in the society?
- How is my hard work
compared to that of my competitor?
- What is my ‘prime
time’? Am I investing my prime time on some vital activities?
- While working, what is
the intensity of my concentration and focus?
- Over these years, is
there an improvement in the level of my responsibility and hard work?
- Am I lazy? How much of my work is pending at any
point of time and is it due to my laziness?
Sometimes your perception of yourself may be
wrong. Check with someone whom you trust most.
