Laziness plagues us all.
Everyone at some point will feel lazy and unmotivated to get stuff done.
Successful people will get through their lazy days.
Every successful person you look up to has felt lazy, but do you respect them for their laziness? No, you don't. You respect them for their work ethic, and how they dealt with their laziness to keep working hard.
Many successful people have their own philosophy on how to deal with laziness, and here are 10 quotes from successful and well-known people on how they thought of laziness, and why they should push through the lazy days:
