<p>Laziness is a modern pandemic.</p> <p>According to&nbsp;<a href="https://blog.gitnux.com/laziness-statistics/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">gitnux statistics</a>, 1 in 4 people feel that they are chronic procrastinators or lazy.</p> <p>According to the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lancet/PIIS0140-6736(16)30383-X.pdf" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Lancet</a>&nbsp;(a U.K. medical journal), that costs the global economy&nbsp;<em>$67.5</em>&nbsp;<em>billion</em>&nbsp;every year.</p> <p>Personally, I&rsquo;m not so concerned with the financial ramifications of being lazy as much as the impact it has on mental health and physical well-being.</p> <p>So, I echo the words of Zig Ziglar:</p> <blockquote> <p>&ldquo;<strong>There is no such thing</strong>&nbsp;as a&nbsp;<strong>lazy</strong>&nbsp;person; he is either sick or uninspired.&rdquo;</p> </blockquote> <p>This makes perfect sense.
