Question

In the praise of slacking what Structural elements are missing from the text write one possible counter argument opposing the authors claim that doing less is an ideal we should embrace then explain why u do or do not find your counter argument compelling.

Answer 1

The statement "doing less is an ideal that we should embrace" may have been adopted by some people who have been successful in their choices. However, these people are rare cases, it is not easy and recurring to be successful and reach your goals in establishing a path of dedication and effort. Doing less does not guarantee that we will succeed, we must always seek, learn and fight for what we want.

We can use as an example the success story of Bill Gates, where this statement does not fit. We can find several testimonials about how Gates and his team worked (sometimes exhaustively) to establish the success of his company.

The counter argument is convincing in that it brings a concrete example of someone who worked to get what he has, as well as presenting arguments that can be identifiable with the present day.
