Idleness vs Doggedness

 So from my experience I believe that many astrophysics academics want people to believe they are hard workers and “did the time” to get their titles and positions and knowledge. 

To me it is fancy laziness, the easiest path forward is the one they took. 

The hard work is looking internally at their own assumptions about the world and constantly trying to challenge them. They don’t challenge the assumptions, at all. 

Fancy laziness.
