"怠惰は甘美でありその結果は残酷です"
— John Quincy Adams
Simplified Meaning:
When you avoid doing important tasks and just relax all the time, it feels good and easy at first. Think of a student who skips studying to watch TV. At the moment, the TV show is fun and enjoyable. However, when the exams come and the student isn't prepared, they face the bad results of failing the tests. In the long run, the initial laziness causes problems and makes life harder. To prevent this, it's better to balance fun with responsibilities. This means doing your work on time so you can enjoy free time without negative outcomes later.
