This chapter explores a guest's thought-provoking perspective on laziness, suggesting it stems from essential human instincts rather than moral failings. It advocates for a compassionate understanding of our need for rest and self-acceptance in an overly productivity-driven society.
Today, social psychologist Devon Price makes the intriguing and ultimately hopeful case that laziness is a myth, a lie, a pernicious trap with no other purpose than to make us feel lousy for not doing more.
