How To Be Lazy by Chris Matts
“Laziness is an aspiration that few achieve.”
– Chris Matts
At ALE15 in Sofia, Chris Matts explained his simple model/strategy To Be Lazy.
How To Be Lazy
Axes: positive or negative value, fun/not fun to do.
- Don’t do what doesn’t yield value.
- Tom Sawyer Land: Delegate what you don’t like to do yourself. Create options for that with coffee connections.
- Ruthless Efficiency: Be the best here, make sure work doesn’t come back.
- Paid Entertainment: This is where you want to spend most of your time.
This surely works for me. Thanks, Chris. Everyone: Go test it and: Enjoy!.
