Why so much emphasis on self-improvement instead of laziness like The Dude?

Selective laziness coupled with high ambition is where it's at.
Having big goals and visions, and working smart to get them, rather than nose-down grinding away for years on paths that lead nowhere.
Choosing what you work on is far more important than how hard, assuming a certain decent level of effort. The vast majority of routes lead to somewhere that wont fulfill you or will only marginally fulfill you, therefore excellent decision-making and path selection is where you get the most ROI for your effort.
I love this 80/20 approach, Richard Koch stuff etc, but it's not for everyone, some people are emotionally attached to working hard for the sake of it.
