The Lazy Man

Woke up this morning and thought to myself ,laziness in whatever form ,deliberate or indeliberate would not help one be an achiever.

"Tomorrow is the only day that appeals to a lazy man "- Jazz musician Jimmy Lyons
Here's a lil' something to motivate you.

To-morrow by Edgar Guest
He was going to be all that a mortal should be To-morrow
No one should be kinder or braver than he To-morrow
A friend who was troubled and weary he knew,
Who'd be glad of a lift and who needed it,too;
On him he would call and see what he could do To-morrow
Each morning he stacked up letters he'd write To-morrow
And thought of the folks he would fill with delight To-morrow
It was too bad ,indeed ,he was busy to-day ,
And hadn't a minute to stop om his way ,
More time he would have to give to others ,he'd say To-morrow
The greatest of workers this man would have been To-morrow
The world would have known him he,had he ever seen To-morrow.
But the fact is he died and faded from view ,
And all that he left here when living was through
Was a mountain of things he intended to do To-morrow
