Diligence and Laziness
In general, diligence is the motive power of success. As it is, there are so many people who have been successful in their careers owing to diligence. To take Dr. Sun Yat-sen for example, he had been busy running about for the democratic revolution of China for forty years, which in the long run gave birth to the Republic of China. Compared with diligence, laziness is just opposite to it. Ten to one, failure often results from laziness. It is not too much to say that laziness is the main factor of failure.
No doubt, it pays to be diligent, but it's wrong to work and work without taking a rest. Undoubtedly, we may take some time off after hard work. We must recognize that being lazy may do good to us once in a while. Can you imagine that we take a rest for the purpose of taking a longer walk? Of course, we cannot be too diligent. On the other hand, we also shouldn't ignore the timely laziness. Because of this, we can find that diligence with proper laziness may lead to a wholesome life.

One possible summary version:
Generally, diligence contributes to success while laziness results in failure. But working continuously is wrong and so diligence with right laziness gives rise to a wholesome life.
Two possible versions:
Diligence often brings us success and laziness failure. However, taking some rest can do us good. A balance of diligence and laziness can be beneficial.
No one of those who succeed attains accomplishment at once. The road to prominence is long and winding, requiring constant drive to overcome obstacles along the way. At often times, laziness makes us lose the determination needed to reach our final destinations. Without hard work, one may be easily frustrated by possible setbacks and may even give up half way.
The unquestionable harm of laziness can be testified through a low graduation rate of students pursuing a medical career in the united states. To become a doctor, one must go through nine years of university education and several more as an intern. During the long process, a lot of prospective students do not work hard enough to master necessary expertise and experience, so as a result they can’t go on to work as doctors.
Thus, it is safe to conclude that laziness prevents us from becoming successful.
Success often goes with diligence while failure seldom goes without laziness. But a balance is needed between hard work and relaxation in order to lead a wholesome life.
Being one of the human natures ,laziness never receives more praise than diligence. But to some degree, laziness can also be regarded as a main kind of promotive power in society.
Thanks to the laziness, cars are created to replace long hours of walk, elevators are produced to prevent lazy people from going upstairs, trains and planes are also made to provide them with more comfortable ways to travel all around. Therefore, laziness isn’t totally a bad thing if we take full advantage of it.
However, laziness doesn’t mean staying in bed and does nothing. Instead, it requires a deeper thought as well as creativity, that is, only smart people are more likely to make good use of laziness.
In a word, we should not judge laziness partly by the negative effect it brings to us. If we are creative enough, we can also be a great man who is lazy in some ways.下载本文
