Hey empress, so nice to have your comment on my post! I hope you're well.

I agree with you, and Obama in this case. People (generally) are far too willing/comfortable to hold their hand out waiting for something to fall into it; that ethos is actively promoted in fact. Everything needs to be easy, stress free and abundant and that behaviour is self-perpetuating I believe. Quite sad.

I've had people tell me my methods are too harsh, that I should reward everyone equally and my response? Well, I htink the post says it all.

Apply some effort, show the right attitude, take action and ownership...I'll reward it. Do nothing and I'll not.

Again, thanks for your great comment. :)
