The point about people at work acting like they are slow is so not a good idea. If people think you are slow, they will not want to invest in you in say a future promotion or training for a better position because it will be perceived as being too costly or a bad investment.
As for people who act lazy in life in general, that is such a deep and interesting topic. Since life can have so many outcomes, one never knows how things could have turned out if they (our lazy loved one) were not doing what they are doing right now. Still people should strive to be their best right? i think at the end of the day we need to offer to help people in a loving way and not judge them. i think when people feel like they are being judged or expected to do something at times they can do the opposite just to piss people off.
Those people who do act all lazy and miss on better life outcomes do not realize how precious time is and how valuable they should treat it at times till its too late. We need to remind them of that and if they are indeed just trying to piss a family member off, atleast when they get older they can not say they did not realize it till it was too late.

Thanks for the comment @leggy23!
For me, there's a definite difference between being lazy and keeping yourself ignorant. I know I'm not the most "ambitious" person on the planet, and have seldom aspired to "greatness" in the sense my parents often pressured me to... but I've certainly never taken pride in ignorance.
For me, that works out as perhaps undertaking fewer projects than many, but the things I DO take on, I make a point of doing well, and to high standards. Some might call me "lazy," but it's unlikely they'd call me ignorant.
