What is a sloth?
Let's face it, neither one of us is truly a sloth. Otherwise we would and could not be active on Hive. And most of us do not only read and post on Hive, we also engage in games and several other activities on this lovely blockchain we call our web 3.0 home.
Ok, maybe a sloth would read but would not post.
Next sloth phase would be not to comment.
And finally (before stopping to read anything) a sloth would not even take the time to upvote.
So what is being a sloth all about and how can we make it buzz?
Let the inner sloth free

We all have it in us. The inner sloth. And it wants out. It wants to turn us into what I described above. In the end it would turn us into doing nothing at all except napping, eating and sleeping.
But we are humans, we can not do that all the time.
But we want to!
So the goal is to get as much time as possible to let the inner sloth out for a while.
Get more efficient
Wait, hear me out.
Getting more efficient does not mean investing more time or energy, quite the contrary.
By getting better organized we can accomplish more with less energy and time. We can then use that time to let the inner sloth out. And use the energy we saved to get it back in again.
Because that is a real thread: Once the inner sloth is let lose, it might not want to be put away again.
We need to be careful not to become a complete sloth but to only be one for a certain amount of time. You might have heard about that, some people call it "to relax".
We start buzzing

And that is what we can buzz about. We can share our methods. Make a list of all the ways we can improve ourselves, time and methods and help each other to find the inner sloth.
We can also post about how we overcome it again to get back buzzing.
Found a way to get more things done in less time?
Another neat feature on hive or any of its many front ends to get things done faster?
Automation for repetitive tasks?
Every day chores to combine for more efficiency?
The list goes on and on. Lots to post about.
In Conclusion

So being a sloth (or admitting to the inner sloth) can be useful and has a bonus.
We learn from each other how to get things done better. That gives us more time for our sloth. Benefits can be reached in all parts of life.
And by posting about it we can have fun (I always have fun writing a post or I would not do it) and earn a little bit with it.
The bonus: We meet like minded people. Exchange with them, learn to know them.
Let the buzzing begin!
Want to share but don't want to write a complete post?
That's fine, simply leave a comment or join the discord
Thank you for reading. Stay healthy, feed the sloth!
