“Una persona perezosa puede hacer muchas cosas, pero este hacer (que
puede hasta ser compulsivo) es una reacción, es decir, es un escape de
la verdadera acción. Porque la acción inevitablemente te lleva a entrar
en contacto con aquellos sentimientos que fueron suprimidos y congelados
en tu sistema, justamente porque es difícil lidiar con ellos. La pereza
es más conocida en su forma pasiva, en la cual la persona se ve
completamente paralizada delante de lo que necesita ser hecho. A veces
ella tiene un tremendo talento, una capacidad genial, pero no consigue
ponerlo en movimiento a favor de ella y de los demás. Sin embargo existe
la pereza activa que se manifiesta a través de un hacer compulsivo que
te desvía de lo que realmente precisa ser hecho.”
"A lazy person may do many things, but this doing, which can even be compulsive, is only a reaction. In other words, it is an escape from true action. Real action inevitably leads us to get in touch with the feelings that were suppressed and frozen in our systems because they were so difficult to deal with. Laziness is best known in its passive form where we find ourselves completely paralyzed in the face of what needs to be done. Sometimes we can have a tremendous talent, a brilliant ability, but we’re unable to put it into motion for ourselves and for others. In contrast, the active form of laziness manifests itself through compulsive doing and distracts us from what really has to get done."
