Devon Price, a social psychologist and advocate against the myth of laziness, argues that societal views on laziness are damaging and rooted in historical bias. He presents laziness as a human instinct tied to personal circumstances rather than a moral failing. The discussion emphasizes the importance of intrinsic motivation, compassion, and redefining productivity in a post-pandemic world. Price encourages listeners to embrace rest and self-acceptance, challenging the notion that one's worth is tied to constant productivity.
