 I always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because he will find an easy way to do it," says Bill Gates. Don't listen to people who think laziness is looking for easy ways to do things. I am one of those people who love to do the simple things that bring the most results. I admit, I do not validate short course to success. But I believe in finding the laziest means to achieve him more, getting something done and making the most of your life while accruing great results. If this bothers you, you probably may have fallen into the class of most people who believe hard workers to always keep you up at night, make you sleep fewer hours every day for many years and spend very little time with friends and family. This may not be entirely true. Long ago, I learned that a hard-working entrepreneur is not the one who always has to be available at his business before it makes money. If your business cannot make money unless you are available, you may not be working hard enough. You may just be indulged in drudgery. While success isn't going to become an easy find, today's world allows even the lazy ones amongst us to succeed if we would just put our brains to use. Let's face it, there are almost very little things you can do today that would bring much success. Thanks to technology and the internet, if you have always been lazy but still long to succeed, well, here are three lazy things you can start to do now to become rich now or later. 1. Watch YouTube videos. You can wonder why I said you should watch YouTube videos to become rich. Sometimes ago, I spoke before some group of teenagers telling them that today, one of the easiest things you can do is to learn a new skill almost every month and you can do so easily and leisurely. I proved it this way. At the moment, I boast to people and clients that I make animated videos using a very popular video editing application, Adobe After Effects. But in truth, I do not make exceptional animated videos. Each time I need to make an animated video advertisement for a client, I identify what type of video concept I want to do and then I get on YouTube to search for step-by-step tutorial on how to make that type of video. I do what the tutorial says to do. By the time I'm through making the video ad, it looks perfect like I had been creating animated videos for a long time. But no, I knew what I wanted, then went on YouTube to get trained on how to do it. It's the same with the delicacy I just learned. I have loved to eat a particular type of food but my wife just doesn't seem to like to make it because the process takes a long time. Recently though, after many months of craving for the food, I got on YouTube and saw a video that shows how to get that food prepared very easily and lazily and yet it will still be delicious. Now, I know how to make the food in a very lazy way within a very short time. What more? I even plan to start selling the food as a business. It's the same with everything. If you want to achieve a result with your work that you've never achieved, you may be surprised that there are a ton of YouTube videos teaching you how to get that thing done. If you need money and you find a neighbor who needs his car washed, YouTube will give you videos on how to wash a car thoroughly. Watch the video, replicate what you've seen and you make your money. You want to put a piece of gadget together to sell to your friends. YouTube gives you videos on how to make that gadget and then you can sell it to your friends. The point is that there is almost nothing you are looking for which you won't find on YouTube. Instead of wasting your time watching videos that do not add to you, watch videos that continuously inspire you to do great things with cheap results. Watch videos that help you to do things easily and still earn so much money with them. Two, do what the rich do. I'm not a fan of mentors. I've always been too lazy to attend seminars. But I try to attend as much as I can. I enjoy being holed up in my apartment working on my computer. This is a fun way to live. But I also enjoy getting rich and increasing my riches the lazy way. So what do I do? Anthony Robbins is alleged to have said if you want to become rich, do what the rich do. That is, study what rich people do to get rich. Do the same and you are most likely to become rich. Isaac Newton is also repeated to have said almost the same thing. I have learnt far much more by standing on the shoulders of those who have gone ahead of me. I am a terrific copycat. Each time I need to do something difficult, I often look for someone who has done the same thing and find out what they did to get it done. Then I copy and paste. The Bible already says it. There is nothing new under the sun. What you need to do has often already been done before. Maybe not always the same way. Someone somewhere has already achieved the kind of success you want to have. This is by far one of the laziest ways to become rich. Read their biographies. Watch their videos. Explore their books. You will catch an idea or a concept they use to change their lives. No matter what you intend to achieve, there is someone out there who has achieved the same thing. It was difficult for them at first but they somehow found a way to get through it. If you would find those people and copy what they do, you will cut your label for success in half. I am not saying you will snap your fingers and success will happen. You may have to work hard to achieve their kind of success but using their experience means you will never have to make the same mistakes they made. You would have overcome wasted time and effort without lifting a finger just by copying their examples. 3. Sell public domain books. Have you ever wanted to become a book publisher or publish and sell your books but haven't been able to get to it because well you are lazy. Well with public domain books you can not only start a publishing company but you can also sell doll-ups of books legally. Before 1964, books had a 28-year copyright term. To extend the copyright term authors or publishers would have to send in a separate form. Lots of people never did that. Now the New York Public Library had made many of those public domain books free online. A book is in the public domain when it is not under copyright protection. Generally, you can publish and sell public domain e-books. However, you will need to search which online platforms you can sell on. Many classical pieces of music like the work of Beethoven and others are in the public domain. This means you can print, copy and sell copies of Beethoven's music without paying a royalty to anyone. Public domain works are no longer covered by intellectual property rights anymore. You can publish all works of an author in the public domain. Before you start to publish public domain books you may need to check that those books are indeed in the public domain and they are not available for free on the online platforms. You are trying to publish them on and they are not available for free on the online platforms you are trying to publish them on. Also, when publishing your public domain books on most online platforms you may be required to select the public domain book option to indicate that the book is in the public domain. Will you make lots of money selling public domain books online? Yes, you will if you play your cards right. Will you ever need to pay a royalty to anyone not if the dead authors rise from the dead to claim a royalty? So you see, I guess laziness has its own rewards. Anthony Robin said People are not lazy. They simply have important goals. That is, goals that do not inspire them. And Robert Heinlein said Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something. If you think life is too tough and you are unwilling to put in the much work required to succeed, here are three tips You can start to leverage now to achieve success as you want it. Learn a fast scale on YouTube and make money with it every time. Copy what the rich do and do the same and start selling public domain books if you are desperate to make quick cash. If this video inspired you, share it with your friends. We love you.
