😎 Doing the job right the first time is for lazy people

Book of TREE 2.94

If you love hard work,
cut corners on the first pass,
don’t set up properly,
be sloppy with the details,
rush the finish, and
leave a mess.
That way you’ll get to
go back and do the job again –
maybe two or three times.

Or you could take the lazy route –
do the job right the first time,
be done with it, and
get to the lounging around.

Doing the job right
the first time is the easiest way
to make people trust you.
It’s the simplest strategy
for standing out from the crowd.
It’s the quickest route
to promotion.

Doing the job right the first time
is pure, glorious laziness
(provided you take the long view).

Borrowing a little of R.E.M.’s Ignoreland on this one.
