Laziness and procrastination have a lot of bad connotation attached to them. Be lazy and you are termed as unproductive and inefficient and a bad person, basically. But being lazy has its benefits. That is keeping in mind that the laziness comes in temporary spurts and is not the predominant way you spend your time. Laziness can make you a better person, if you are smart in using it as a resource, rather than an impediment to productivity. It also gives you single minded focus to do the tasks you left for the last minute. Because of laziness, you must have left some jobs to be done for the last minute. And because you left the job for the last moment, when you sit down to do it, you do it with great intensity and concentration. And you like the thrill that comes with it.

This is very useful in computer programming, where you are required to optimize code, and by extension, can be applied to any problem that needs to be done as easily as possible, with as less energy as it can take.
