Life is hard enough as it is, so whenever I come across some helpful tip that makes it just a little easier to get through my day, you best believe I'm taking it!

After all, Bill Gates himself once said that if you want to get something done in the fastest, easiest way possible, assign that task to a "lazy" person because they WILL find a way to reduce redundancies and get the job done with as little sweat as possible.
