They sit on the streets, on couches, inside and outside houses. They may occupy residency within your home, or reside within the dark corner of your neighborhood streets. The people I refer to are slackers and bums. These people differentiate only in time. Slacker being the beginning stage of the inevitable bum status. Both classifications will here on be referred to as slacker(s).
What is it like to be a slacker? Is it enjoyable to the individual that sustains these characteristics? I would think not. It’s possibly just a state of mind that has been solidified as the norm throughout their life. In my personal opinion, many of these people are products of their environment. I have a friend that is a slacker; he will eventually end up on the streets if he does not change his ways. The person I speak of is really close to me; I’ve seen the slacker attributes develop throughout his life. Being the case that I’ve seen those traits develop; I feel I possess a better understanding of the topic at hand.
I believe the lack of motivation a vast majority of slackers possess, is critically definitive of their labeling. To be a slacker; is to be someone who lacks motivation. Some people just aren’t pushed to strive for success at a young age; from this statement even more questions will be formed. Questions about environment, genes, and parenting are among the many. When defining the cause, you must also take into account influential figures in the subject’s life. The subject often idolizes a figure that exhibits key traits a slacker possesses. What traits you ask? As I had mentioned before one of the key traits would be lack of motivation.
To delve further into the actual definition of the topic; slacker essentially references a stereotype. This stereotype depicts a hippie stoner kid that sits on the couch all day and plays video games. This obviously isn’t the truth; slacker could also be an intellectually gifted individual who just never felt challenged. Therefore they waste their talent away by not utilizing it. I don’t think that there is a solidified definition; it remains vague, in my own mind at least. Then again; I explore the technicalities of the word slacker. If you were to stick to strictly basics, the word would suffice defined as lazy.
Now we must ask the question; is there a line? A line to divide slacker from its antonym (whatever it may be coined). Well yes there is a line; it isn’t a fine line, or a real tangible line for that matter. The distinction between slacker and its opposition lays in your own personal perception.
I for instance view the term slacker as someone who just doesn’t care. They don’t care about life, they don’t care about themselves. Then again; even those who have reached success may also not care.
Their habits affect those around them, whether they know it or not. As a whole they drag down society, while individually they enervate families and friendships.
It’s not an epidemic crisis or debilitating disease; although it could prove unhealthy should it continue for extended periods of time. There is hope in sight for anyone you fear that exhibits slacker qualities. So if you see the traits, you can either let them develop until they end up homeless and on the streets. Then there is that other possibility of instilling some sense of drive into them.
