Misattributed to Bill Gates: "I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job, because he will find an easy way to do it". I'm not sure who that's actually from, but the idea behind it is the same. However, one has to remember that to innovate while being lazy isn't actually simple. I won't go out of my way to make something cool and innovative because, well, I'm lazy. It's only when it saves me time and I absolutely have to do it, that I'll come up with great ideas (as "S" did when faced with her favorite toy).


It's called Hlade's Law (and was recently featured on reddit).


Reminds me that crawling isn't a recognized developmental step, but directed movement is. Seemed little "S" has pretty good command of directed movement, by moving her target to herself.


Exactly. :)
