My Philosophy

[Attila]

I have been thinking A LOT about this last few days, and this is my quote:

"There is no such thing as stupid people,only those who are lazy and those who are not lazy".

Discuss.

Ya, people who are in the average classes are the people who don't study, don't to their homework, and not listen in class.
I only do the listening and homework. Studying really bores me, and I can't focus.

My teacher called me lazy since I only had 100 read pages done, and it was already half a quarter. I was suppose to read 1500 pages. She said I shouldn't be in the Honors class. But I want a challenge. I don't like being in slow classes. They bore me, and I don't listen which shows on my tests. B's and C's

“You can't teach people to be lazy - either they have it, or they don't.”
Hehehe.

“I was very lazy in the sixth form at school, I wasn't motivated properly, I handled it very badly and I was not given a place at university to study medicine.”
That might be true.
Sometimes kids, don't want to study because it isn't fun. And they rather be playing video games. But what really motivates them is staying on the school sports teams.

Hey, being laziness is a job within itself. ^^

I love procrastinating...though my parents hate it, I'm like whatever. It's too bad I'm not some rich heir who can afford to procrastinate forever... >.<

I ****ING hate procrastinating. It always seems to happen, and theres no way I can like...force myself out of it. It sucks, don't say you love it. >.<

Thats a horrible quote, even more so since you spent the last couple of days thinking it up.

Laziness is just the term coined to,by educators to label students reticence towards certain subjects.
All that really differs...is whats the persons minimum is. Some is zero and others are 50%, and so forth.

You say this because you didn't think about it. Face the facts.
If your parents gave you a book and locked you in a room with nothing and you read the book for days, of course you will remember it.

I think that instead of putting 'but' you need to make a new sentence beginning with 'only'.

^Grammar *****^

I like the simplicity but it's not like it covers the whole world or anything.

Not true. I've met people who are lazy; but very smart. I've also met those people who aren't lazy, but don't do well. You can't sum up how the brain works in a sentence. You might think your quote is right; I don't think that. It's not how lazy you are; it's the amount of dedication you put forth.

For example, if you read this Brain Man article, then you'll see that Daniel is a very talented person. Now, according to your philosophy, does that mean that everyone can be as smart as him if they aren't lazy?

I don't think laziness has anything to do with how smart or dumb you are. Just because someone is lazy does not mean they are stupid. Just because someone isn't lazy doesn't mean they are smart.

I think he's referring to if everyone was born stupid and then smartness was something aquired. I see where your coming from...

Your "quote" is invalid because there are stupid people in the world.

Read the webpage and tell me that there aren't slow learners, or mentally ******ed people in the world. That'd be lying.
