Both of dem places limitations on how far u go in life.

What you really talking about?
I don't think you talking about what others are talking about

NtoAkwaIbom:
Ignorance.
There is no greater misfortune....
An ignorant man who will toil from jan to december, from post to pole and not make any headway.. Untill someone pops out to help.

All it takes for a knowledgeable lazy guy to do is to turn up, show d hardworking dumbass what he is to do to get it right, and then collects his percentage without breaking a sweat.

Ignorance

ignorance is a disease

Everyone is lazy in some areas of their life.
Everyone is also ignorant about some certain areas.

You can be hardworking by waking up 3 am and resuming for work, but mentally lazying in becoming a billionaire.

Laziness.... No comparison sef.

Ignorance is worse

Laziness can be overcome with motivation but ignorance is hardwork for penny

onemmanuel:
What is worse-- to be lazy or to be ignorant? Now, keep in mind that there are a buch of positives (capability to improve) and negatives for both. I'm curious to hear everyone's opinions!

There is a saying that there is no ignorance in Law
But it has never been said that there is no laziness in Law, that goes to say that ignorance can kill a man but laziness only makes one poor , so ignorance is worse than laziness.

ignorance -lack of knowledge or information
laziness -the quality of being unwilling to work or use energy; idleness.

it is obvious that ignorance is the worst, it even kills if care isnt taken ,an ignorant person will not know the dangers ahead,an ignorant person will never see the opportunities of things around him because he has no information about them. that is the reason why people all over the world spend huge money to acquire knowledge . knowledge is power , the absence of it makes one powerless

dayo2me:
damn it, ignorance is the worse. it can get you killed, get you fired, make you unemployed etc. ignorance isn't good at all.

Laziness won't let you even smell the job in the first place

Ignorance sometimes can turn out to be a blessing

Sometimes what you don't know won't kill you.

Ignorance sometimes can turn out to be a blessing

Sometimes what you don't know won't kill you.

Ignorance.

Laziness can provoke innovation. When you are not ready to do something, you might end up coming with a simpler way of doing it.

As for ignorance, You are dead when you don't have information. Things going around that you can take advantage of.

kybee:

Seriously ??
In simple terms, i said.. That a hardworking ignorant person will go about doing everything wrong... But a knowledgeable lazy man knws wat to do, but he is just lazy about it.
So for him to make money without having to work all he needs to do is to call the ignorant person, tell him why he is failing enter an agreement to get a certain percentage if he shows him how to do it right, and then by collecting his share without hving to even work that hard.. Its what most motivational speakers do.

ofemigeorge:

Laziness won't let you even smell the job in the first place

you can walk your way to get employed being a lazy guy, but for your job to be sustained you have get rid off your laziness.

I think ignorance is worst.

Reason being that laziness can easily be cured but not ignorance. Ignorance goes along with stupidity
A lazy person might crawl out of that shell of laziness when hunger and hardship hit him hard. Ignorance can bring public disgrace unlike laziness.
Ignorance will claim your own life while laziness might not. Ignorance is when a person is ill but refuses to seek medical attention because a pastor told him it's ungodly.

People who are ignorance are usually awkward and backward minded. They are people that you cannot boast about because they will always disgrace you. When they make contribution in class or public places, you begin to wonder why their senses are not working properly.

Ignorance goes along with foolishness and stupidity

Ignorance is the worst... It is a general say that Ignorance is a sin.... A lazy person can still use his / her knowledge to tap something while an ignorant person will serve a lazy but wise person forever..... BE WISE

What is worse-- to be lazy or to be ignorant? Now, keep in mind that there are a buch of positives (capability to improve) and negatives for both. I'm curious to hear everyone's opinions!




both are bad

but an ignorant man is far worse

no wonder the bible said "my people perish for lack of knowlegde"

the worst attribute of an ignorant man is that he doesnt even know he doesnt know and most time they end up arguing with u instead of learning


a lazy man by the way if he is smart can be successful infact i have never equated hardwork with success, (just ask drivers and truck pushers)

some pple sleep more than they work and yet they are rich, a lazy man with information will be successful but a hardworking ignorant man is just running in circles and they only way he will go is DOWNWARDS

Laziness!.You know the right way and you cannot follow.

mostly ignorance is lack of information while laziness is a disease that needs to be cured.

veekid:
Ignorance can get you killed while laziness will make you poor and or if you're lucky; you maybe underpaid but ignorance is badder

Gbam

IGNORANCE !! Look Around, Most Blacks/ Nigerians Are Hardworking Like Donkeys, But Due To Ignorance They Are The Ones That Eat Grass Since Time Immemorial, Remaining Poor,backward. Even In Business And World Of Work, Those Workaholic Work Horses, Mostly Ignorant, Are The Least Paid.

Ezechinwa:
Everyone is lazy in some areas of their life.
Everyone is also ignorant about some certain areas.

You can be hardworking by waking up 3 am and resuming for work, but mentally lazying in becoming a billionaire.

Why do people NEED to be a Billionaire?
I don't understand it?

Why do you need empty mansions and unused parked expensive cars all over the place? Why do you need a 30 bedroom houses around town?

Answer after critical thoughts please, thanks.

ON AMERICAN RADIO THIS MORNING THE FOLLOWING WAS SAID BY A WHITE PERSON:

*DON'T BLAME LIBYA, BLACKS WILL ALWAYS BE SLAVES*

For those of us who heard it, this is the article Dee Lee was reading this morning on a New York radio station. For those who didn't hear it here is the full detail:

Dee Lee, CFP Harvard Financial Educators

THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES We can continue to reap profits from the Blacks without the effort of physical slavery Look at the current methods of containment that they use on themselves: IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS.

Their IGNORANCE is the primary weapon of containment. A great man once said, "The best way to hide something from Black people is to put it in a book." We now live in the Information Age. They have gained the opportunity to read any book on any subject through the efforts of their fight for freedom, yet they refuse to read. There are numerous books readily available at Borders, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.com, not to mention their own Black Bookstores that provide solid blueprints to reach economic equality (which should have been their fight all along), but few read consistently, if at all.

GREED is another powerful weapon of containment. Blacks, since the abolition of slavery, have had large amounts of money at their disposal. Last year they spent 10 billion dollars during Christmas, out of their 450 billion dollars in total yearly income (2.22%).

Any of us can use them as our target market, for any business venture we care to dream up, no matter how outlandish, they will buy into it. Being primarily a consumer people, they function totally by greed. They continually want more, with little thought for saving or investing.

They would rather buy some new sneaker than invest in starting a business. Some even neglect their children to have the latest Tommy or FUBU, And they still think that having a Mercedes, and a big house gives them "Status" or that they have achieved their Dream.

They are fools! The vast majority of their people are still in poverty because their greed holds them back from collectively making better communities.

With the help of BET, and the rest of their black media that often broadcasts destructive images into their own homes, we will continue to see huge profits like those of Tommy and Nike. (Tommy Hilfiger has even jeered them, saying he doesn't want their money, and look at how the fools spend more with him than ever before!). They'll continue to show off to each other while we build solid communities with the profits from our businesses that we market to them.

SELFISHNESS, ingrained in their minds through slavery, is one of the major ways we can continue to contain them. One of their own, Dubois said that there was an innate division in their culture. A "Talented Tenth" he called it. He was correct in his deduction that there are segments of their culture that has achieved some "form" of success. However, that segment missed the fullness of his work. They didn't read that the "Talented Tenth" was then responsible to aid The Non-Talented Ninety Percent in achieving a better life. Instead, that segment has created another class, a Buppie class that looks down on their people or aids them in a condescending manner. They will never achieve what we have. Their selfishness does not allow them to be able to work together on any project or endeavor of substance. When they do get together, their selfishness lets their egos get in the way of their goal Their so-called help organizations seem to only want to promote their name without making any real change in their community.

They are content to sit in conferences and conventions in our hotels, and talk about what they will do, while they award plaques to the best speakers, not to the best doers. Is there no end to their selfishness? They steadfastly refuse to see that TOGETHER EACH ACHIEVES MORE (TEAM). They do not understand that they are no better than each other because of what they own, as a matter of fact, most of those Buppies are but one or two pay checks away from poverty. All of which is under the control of our pens in our offices and our rooms.

Yes, we will continue to contain them as long as they refuse to read, continue to buy anything they want, and keep thinking they are "helping" their communities by paying dues to organizations which do little other than hold lavish conventions in our hotels. By the way, don't worry about any of them reading this letter, remember, 'THEY DON'T READ!!!!

Can We Prove them (whites) wrong
Please pass this on! After Reading it.

ingnorance brings about laziness cos if one is ingnorance of his or her present situation/problems...it would b difficult for him to make an amend

You have just described 90% of AFRICANS including the thieving elites. IGNORAMUSES!

Ignorance is.

So many Nigerians are ignorant.

You can see why the country cannot move forward because of the ignorance being exhibited by the majority.

Laziness is a clear sign of intelligence.

A lot of ignorant people will start arguing now but they will not take the pains of Googling this to verify the veracity of this claim.

Adeyemi0:
laziness is worse... it's not even up for debate.

Ignorance is bad! according to research lazy people are the most productive in history
85% percent of inventions were built by lazy people who are not ready to work there by looking for a way to go around nature without stress
Laziness is a sign of being very intelligent

dayo2me:
you can walk your way to get employed being a lazy guy, but for your job to be sustained you have get rid off your laziness.

You never see wer person lazy to write or fill application or even lazy to develop him self

Two shits!

Ignorance and laziness is a no no; non is better.

You can still be a first class graduate and posses these 2 shits

bettercreature:
Ignorance is bad! according to research lazy people are the most productive in history
985% percent of inventions were built by lazy people who are not ready to work there by looking for a way to go around nature without stress

Am to lazy to google it, if this statement is true. I think I will just ignore it, and assume you are writing out of point.
