I must save time now; I need time later TO BE LAZY.
I must save time now; I need time later TO BE LAZY.
Wond'ring aloud, How we feel today. Last night sipped the sunset, My hand in her hair. We are our own saviours, As we start both our hearts, Beating life Into each other. ~Ian Anderson
If this is a matter of pride then you'd do well to stay away from me and my brethren for fear of looking shamefully industrious

I find that gamma NT's are lazy bastards. Little Si, little Se, and Te just trys to make everything faster, easier, and cheaper.

I think ISTp's savor their lazyness more and create physical conditions in which they can be comfortably relaxed and lazy. Whereas Gamma NT's will often not even take care of themselves physically. So its a different kind of laziness. One is sort of hedonistic and the other is just careless and detached.

This is interesting, and the ISTp bit is true of the way I go about it - comfortable, relaxed laziness is the only way to go. Can you describe Gamma NT laziness more? I'm intrigued... is it that they ignore their physical experience while they set their Ni free to wander [aimlessly?], or what?
I've recently come to think of rest and leisure as the means to an end (work being the end) instead of the opposite. Granted, in the past I saw this on a very large scale... five or ten years of very hard work and sacrifice being the means to a lifetime of security and freedom.
I now understand that security and freedom are internal conditions, not external circumstances. One who is internally enslaved and insecure can never find lasting circumstances of security and freedom. One who practices self-mastery on the other hand, cannot loose his/her freedom or security as the result of circumstances, no matter what they are.
