Every Craftsman is Dump and Lazy

Yeah, that's true. :-)

Craftsman is lazy because he does not want to repeat what he wrote before.

Crafstman is dump because he knows that if he's not, he'll stop learning and stop being critical of his work. Both are essential for being successful.

It's good to be dump and lazy after all, huh? So be dump, be lazy -- those are qualities of the best!

Read the post, link below, by Jeff to see more explanation. Great stuff.
