Small Fun: Although not essential, small fun helps prevent corruption and depravity, and keeps greed in check. In fact, the key to controlling greed isn’t moderation, but small fun itself. However, if that small fun ever disappears—leaving you bored or unmotivated—it’s important to take time for self-reflection. While big fun doesn’t last long and can actually fuel greed, by contrast, small fun supports steady effort and offers you time to reflect leisurely. Therefore, to live a happy life, we must find some small fun. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
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”
