I am a lazy person. I do most things at about a 70% effort level. Maybe less. I rationalize everything, which probably lowers my effort level (except for the level of effort involved in creating the rationalization.) BUT, I accomplish a lot. This baffles me.
My husband seems to think I am a creative genius, and that eventually, I will pay off. He thinks I have some great talents that if I only applied them in the right areas, we’d be rich. I try to tell him that I’m just too lazy to realize any kind of real success, but he doesn’t listen. He also thinks we should put our son in commercials. My husband sees cash cows everywhere.
I don’t know where I’m going with this.
I guess my point is that I joined the quilting guild, and volunteered for a couple jobs: PR Chairperson and Newsletter Editor. These are positions for which I am trained and skilled. However, the guild people seem to think I have bitten off more than I can chew. Perhaps. I have been known to do that. But I am also decidedly less lazy when people are counting on me.
For example, I’m mostly unlazy when it comes to my son. I do not want to go to the park everyday and sit around on the concrete while he dumps piles of sand on his legs. But he loves it, so we go. (Although, we’re sick right now, so we’re not going, because I hate the look the other mothers give when he coughs. “How could you bring your sick child here within my healthy child’s airspace?!!)
So, we’ll see what happens. Maybe I’ll let them all down. Maybe they’re lazier than me (God forbid) and they can’t understand why I’d take on so much.
