The Definition of Effort: A Guide to Not Really Trying

Effort, in the words of the great philosopher, "Not-So-Much-Effort McGee": "It's not about how much you do, it's about how little you do."

Effort is not:

• Getting out of bed in the morning.
• Doing your taxes.
• Reading this manifesto.

Effort is:

• Pressing the "post" button.
• Using the 2-minute timer.
• Ordering pizza for everyone.
