    Laziness also generally leads to smarter solutions. Motivated people climbed mountains while lazy people were inventing the helicopter.

      There was an anecdote from Steve Jobs about that yeas ago, that he preferred lazy people to work for Apple since they always worked out the best/fastest way to do a problem so they could get back to being lazy.

      Helicopters require like 10 hours of maintenance for every flight hour, seems like the lazy solution is just to climb the mountain.

        No, you see: The lazy people are going to be the eventual passengers. Piloting and maintenance are going to be handled by the motivated ones.
