Why you should be lazy

Published 10 months ago • 1 min read

Laziness.
There’s something about laziness that can actually teach you a lot—and even help you level up your investments like never before.

Think about it logically.
Most businesses are built on laziness.

  • "Should we get a taxi?"
  • "Why the hell would I go out trying to flag one down—just order an Uber."

Sound familiar?
But this one probably hits even closer:

  • "What should we have for dinner?"
  • "As long as I don’t have to make it, order whatever you want."

Laziness drives the world.
And it makes sense.
We want to focus on what we enjoy or what we’re good at.
Nothing else.

Same thing happens with investing.
Especially with real estate.

A lot of people are too lazy to look for properties.
To analyze them.
To buy, renovate, manage them...
You get the idea.

​

This is why so few people actually do this. Make money. Create wealth.

Now, you decide in which side of laziness you want to be.

I learnt today that a great professional I know got laid down. After more than 30 years in the same company. Delivering amazing projects. Making millions… if not billions – yes, with “b” for the company. A big, important guy. A great guy, by the way. Personally and professionally. He’s shocked. And in his late 50s… after being at the top in uncountable projects, deciding over the lives of hundreds of employees, contractors and subcontractors. He feels vulnerable. Not sure if you had realized....

One of the people I mentor told me last Tuesday that he wanted to know more about PPPs. I said. You’re wrong. Time to remove your mask. You don’t want to “learn about PPPs.” You want Make more money Access big projects Differentiate yourself professionally Break out of stagnation Gain authority / status Work on things that matter Your pain is not technical.
