Laziness visits me and this is what happened..

Journal Entry 

          I am not so happy to share this. I was super late this day. I think it was not a productive day. I woke up late. I don’t have any nice top to wear. I think I don’t have energy to go to the office. I am super lazy. I write this not because I am proud to share my laziness but it is my way of evaluating myself. Hence, I also want others who read this to see how bad it is to be lazy at work.  

          I arrived at the office at 10:14 am. I was late for one hour and fourteen minutes. When I finally arrived, the assistant of my boss gave me task to research for the profiles of the people that would be at the meeting at Brazil. Of course, I took the task and started to research the profiles of people. I don’t know if I am just lazy to search on their files or it is just me who is not god on researching. Well, no excuses! That day, I know I didn’t please the Lord for not doing my best. I didn’t find all the files. And my time was finished just researching.

          I remember the message that I heard one of our chapels in school that “it is not always that I will be at my best, but it is not an excuse not to do my best.” I forgot to carry excellence on that day. I didn’t do what is good and pleasing to the eyes of God. Though I have done the task, but the Lord knows that I just do it without my heart on it.

          I want to do things that would please the Lord. Sooner I will be working on the workplace not just an intern but a real employee. Laziness is one of deadliest thing that a person could have. If we tolerate it, we won’t succeed. Just what happened to me this day, I went home unsatisfied because I entertained laziness in my mood. Next time, I shouldn’t tolerate it. Giving your best in whatever you do it still a noble thing to do.
