What exactly is the Trouble with Crystal? Life reflections of a crazy girl.
Crystal’s First Grade Textbook:
I love procrastinators. I love movies. I love people who procrastinte by watching movies.
I love entrepreneurs. I love money. I love entrepreneurs who make money.
I love entrepreneurs who make money by procrastinating and watching movies.
The thing I love about Stanford is how amazingly smart, and amazingly lazy, people are. I resent everyone (parents, teachers, advisers, snobby know-it-alls, geeks who never leave the library even though they really need a shower) who says that laziness is not the way to success. That is why I am so in love with Hello Movies. Yeah, the interface looks nice, the service is useful (especially the database of free online movies), and the developers are hot (just kidding about that one..), but the real reason I love it is because it proves all those granny-glasses wearing crankies — who always seem to have one hand smugly stroking their chin and the other cramming that stick up my ass — wrong.
Why shouldn’t we get rich doing what we love to do. When its what we love, how can we call it working hard. Work becomes play, especially when play means getting rich off of all your expertise from watching movies. Working hard has become a thing of the past, and the new wave of lazy entrepreneurs has come: from the web-saavy facebook app developers and bloggers to the down-to-earth garage band musicians. This economic situation especially has woken us all up to the fact that you can study and work for years to acquire your skills, only to get laid off; but people will always procrastinate.
One Response for "Entrepreneurial Procrastinators: It’s about finding a job you love"
Haha, trust me, we are definitely not lazy at HelloMovies. We love what we do, and if that means slacking a little on some other priorities, well so be it.
Thank you for the kind post Crystal.
