There comes a time when we realize that short-cuts or cutting corners end up making a fool of us. In hopes of efficiency, we end up with the short end of the stick. Cutting corners is a kind way of describing laziness. Whether you are cutting corners or finding short-cuts, you're really just biting yourself in the ass, (in the end). True efficiency is taking the time to complete your necessary tasks properly from the beginning. Sometimes that takes longer, but by the end you'll have the best result because you took the time to do it right.
