People infer high self-efficacy from successes achieved through minimal effort on difficult tasks, but they infer low self-efficacy if they had to work hard under favorable conditions to master relatively easy tasks — Albert Bandura
![Low Effort Quotes By Jonathan Haidt Low Effort Quotes By Jonathan Haidt](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-jonathan-haidt-172491.jpg)
David Perkins,12 a Harvard psychologist who has devoted his career to improving reasoning, found the same thing. He says that thinking generally uses the "makessense" stopping rule. We take a position, look for evidence that supports it, and if we find some evidence - enough so that our position "makes sense" - we stop thinking. But at least in a low-pressure situation such as this, if someone else brings up reasons and evidence on the other side, people can be induced to change their minds; they just don't make an effort to do such thinking for themselves. — Jonathan Haidt

Those who aspire to less accomplish less. There can be no doubt. It is better, I think, to grab at the stars than to sit flustered because you know you cannot reach them." He shot Drizzt his typical wry smile. "At least he who reaches will get a good stretch, a good view, and perhaps even a low-hanging apple for his effort! — R.A. Salvatore
![Low Effort Quotes By David Foster Wallace Low Effort Quotes By David Foster Wallace](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-david-foster-wallace-2050665.jpg)
The even newer new guy now that's come in to take Chandler Foss's spot's name is Dave K. and is one grim story to behold, Thrust assures him, a junior executive guy at ATHSCME Air Displacement, an upscale guy with a picket house and kids and a worried wife with tall hair, who this Dave K.'s bottom was he drank half a liter of Cuerva at some ATHSCME
Interdependence Day office party and everything like that and got in some insane drunken limbo-dance challenge with a rival
executive and tried to like limbo under a desk or a chair or something insanely low, and got his spine all fucked up in a limbolock,
maybe permanently: so the newest new guy scuttles around the Ennet House living room like a crab, his scalp brushing the
floor and his knees trembling with effort. — David Foster Wallace
![Low Effort Quotes By Michel De Montaigne Low Effort Quotes By Michel De Montaigne](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-michel-de-montaigne-1427788.jpg)
Who does not see that I have taken a road along which I shall go, without stopping and without effort, as long as there is ink and paper in the world? I cannot keep a record of my life by my actions; fortune places them too low. I keep it by my thoughts. — Michel De Montaigne
![Low Effort Quotes By Mark Barrowcliffe Low Effort Quotes By Mark Barrowcliffe](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-mark-barrowcliffe-439560.jpg)
I was aware that he was laughing at me, but I told myself I didn't care what other people thought and would dress how I liked. Of course, like many self-consciously wacky people, I was in fact paralyzed by fear of the opinions of others and made the effort to appear as the maddest of the mad headbangers just in case anyone had the slightest lingering doubt as to the depth of my devotion. In fact, I think my disguise felt so fragile I couldn't allow it a single crack. If I did it might fall to bits and leave the real me shrivelling under the evaluating gaze of my peer group. — Mark Barrowcliffe
![Low Effort Quotes By James Berardinelli Low Effort Quotes By James Berardinelli](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-james-berardinelli-1464991.jpg)
Looking back at Batman from a distance after all the hype has dried up and the franchise has at least temporarily been abandoned it's easy to see the movie for what it is: a moderately diverting motion picture that should have been shorter and better paced. There are a lot of things wrong with Batman , but it still makes for decent entertainment in the fine tradition of the typical low-intelligence summer movie. The best thing that can be said about Batman is that it led to Batman Returns , which was a far superior effort. — James Berardinelli
![Low Effort Quotes By Kirby Howell Low Effort Quotes By Kirby Howell](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-kirby-howell-90863.jpg)
Our group pressed west on what was left of Highway 93, toward the pass leading to Las Vegas. Sand covered the road in loose drifts so deep the horses' hooves sank into them. The metal highway signs were bent low by the strong wind, and above us, billboards that once screamed ads for the casinos were now stripped of their promises of penny slots and large jackpots. The raw boards underneath were exposed, like showgirls without their makeup. Some signs had been blown over completely and lay half-buried under mounds of sand, like sleeping animals.
Cars dotted the highway, their paint scoured off and dead tumbleweeds caught underneath them. Their windows were fogged with death, and despite my effort not to look, my eyes were drawn to the blurred images of the still forms inside. I tried to concentrate on the dark road ahead of us instead. — Kirby Howell
![Low Effort Quotes By Kiera Cass Low Effort Quotes By Kiera Cass](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-kiera-cass-1803803.jpg)
Maxon, this is my gift to you. I promise I will make every effort to see these girls through your eyes. Not the eyes of a queen, or the eyes of your mother, but yours. Even if the girl you choose is of a very low caste, even if others think she has no value, I will always listen to your reasons for wanting her. And I will do my best to support your choice. — Kiera Cass
![Low Effort Quotes By Jill Shalvis Low Effort Quotes By Jill Shalvis](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-jill-shalvis-939507.jpg)
I'm done waiting. Done doing things the easy way and letting things happen as they will."
Her heart caught. "What does that mean?"
"It means this is too important to let slip away again. You're too important." He leaned back against the truck with a low grunt of effort, eyes dark, jaw clenched. "I love you too, Tara. — Jill Shalvis
![Low Effort Quotes By Gary Taubes Low Effort Quotes By Gary Taubes](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-gary-taubes-1177813.jpg)
What I tried to make clear in Good Calories, Bad Calories was that nutrition and obesity research lost its way after the Second World War with the evaporation of the European community of scientists and physicians that did pioneering work in those disciplines. It has since resisted all attempts to correct it. As a result, the individuals involved in this research have not only wasted decades of time, and effort, and money but have done incalculable damage along the way. Their beliefs have remained imperious to an ever-growing body of evidence that refutes them while being embraced by public-health authorities and translated into precisely the wrong advice about what to eat and, more important, what not to eat if we want to maintain a healthy weight and live a long and healthy life. — Gary Taubes
![Low Effort Quotes By Martha Beck Low Effort Quotes By Martha Beck](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-martha-beck-776817.jpg)
Our thoughts about an event can have a dramatic effect on how we go through the event itself. When our expectations are low, it's easy to be pleasantly surprised. When they're not, we're vulnerable to painful disappointment. Because of this, many people spend a good deal of effort trying to avoid developing high hopes about anything. — Martha Beck
![Low Effort Quotes By Emilio Estevez Low Effort Quotes By Emilio Estevez](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-emilio-estevez-1568963.jpg)
The low-hanging fruit is cynicism and pessimism, and it's there if you want it. You can reach out and you can grab it, you don't even have to make any effort. — Emilio Estevez
![Low Effort Quotes By Pavel Tsatsouline Low Effort Quotes By Pavel Tsatsouline](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-pavel-tsatsouline-371335.jpg)
HOW TO GRIND YOUR DEADLIFT Mentally prepare for a steady, relentless effort, as opposed to having a speed mindset. Pre-tense. Pressurize. Squeeze the bar off the floor, don't jerk. "Lift the barbell powerfully-steady, applying a maximal effort along the whole lift." (Smolov) Aim for a constant, low, acceleration towards the lockout. There is more than one way to pull big. — Pavel Tsatsouline
![Low Effort Quotes By Bruce Ames Low Effort Quotes By Bruce Ames](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-bruce-ames-226742.jpg)
The effort to eliminate synthetic pesticides because of unsubstantiated fears about residues in food will make fruits and vegetables more expensive, decrease consumption, and thus increase cancer rates. The levels of synthetic pesticide residues are trivial in comparison to natural chemicals, and thus their potential for cancer causation is extremely low. [Ames believes that "to eat your veggies" is the best way to prevent cancer.] — Bruce Ames
![Low Effort Quotes By Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Low Effort Quotes By Geshe Kelsang Gyatso](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-geshe-kelsang-gyatso-1501103.jpg)
If we want to cook food we need to leave the stove on continuously and not keep turning it on and off. If the heat is continuous, no matter whether it is high or low our food will eventually be cooked. Similarly, if we continuously apply effort, even if it is only a small effort, it is certain that we shall eventually experience the fruits of our practice. — Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
![Low Effort Quotes By John Piper Low Effort Quotes By John Piper](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-john-piper-1490940.jpg)
Tasks don't have to be high-impact to be worthy of high effort. Most things we do in any given day are relatively low impact. The cumulative impact of thousands of low-impact test is huge. These tasks can be transposed into worship. — John Piper
![Low Effort Quotes By D.H. Lawrence Low Effort Quotes By D.H. Lawrence](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-d-h-lawrence-1749103.jpg)
The rabbit presses back her ears, Turns back her liquid, anguished eyes And crouches low: then with wild spring Spurts from the terror of his oncoming To be choked back, the wire ring Her frantic effort throttling: Piteous brown ball of quivering fears! — D.H. Lawrence
![Low Effort Quotes By Franklin D. Roosevelt Low Effort Quotes By Franklin D. Roosevelt](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-franklin-d-roosevelt-1651748.jpg)
Your profits are going to be cut down to a reasonably low level by taxation. Your income will be subject to higher taxes. Indeed in these days, when every available dollar should go to the war effort, I do not think that any American citizen should have a net income in excess of $25,000 per year after payment of taxes. — Franklin D. Roosevelt
![Low Effort Quotes By Joseph Henrich Low Effort Quotes By Joseph Henrich](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-joseph-henrich-1690124.jpg)
The results reveal the power of prestige: when the gold-starred player had the opportunity to contribute money first, he or she tended to contribute to, and thus cooperate in, the joint effort, and then the following player - the low-prestige person - usually did as well. So, everyone won. However, when the low-prestige player got to contribute money first (or not), he or she tended not to contribute to the joint project (not cooperate), and then, neither did the high-prestige player. Even — Joseph Henrich
![Low Effort Quotes By Daniel Kahneman Low Effort Quotes By Daniel Kahneman](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-daniel-kahneman-1193657.jpg)
Systems 1 and 2 are both active whenever we are awake. System 1 runs automatically and System 2 is normally in a comfortable low-effort mode, in which only a fraction of its capacity is engaged. System 1 continuously generates suggestions for System 2: impressions, intuitions, intentions, and feelings. If endorsed by System 2, impressions and intuitions turn into beliefs, and impulses turn into voluntary actions. When all goes smoothly, which is most of the time, System 2 adopts the suggestions of System 1 with little or no modification. You generally believe your impressions and act on your desires, and that is fine - usually. When System 1 runs into difficulty, it calls on System 2 to support more detailed and specific processing that may solve the problem of the moment. System 2 is mobilized when a question arises for which System 1 does not offer an answer. [S]ystem 2 is activated when an event is detected that violates the model of the world that System 1 maintains. — Daniel Kahneman
![Low Effort Quotes By Rodrigo Rato Low Effort Quotes By Rodrigo Rato](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-rodrigo-rato-1994642.jpg)
I mean, the world has already done a big, big effort to forget debt to countries heavily indebted and with low income. And that has given good chances to countries to get out of poverty. — Rodrigo Rato
![Low Effort Quotes By Joris-Karl Huysmans Low Effort Quotes By Joris-Karl Huysmans](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-joris-karl-huysmans-2074205.jpg)
One of these, bearing the name of Crampton, is an adorable blonde with a shrill voice, a long slender body imprisoned in a shiny brass corset, and supple catlike movements; a smart golden blonde whose extraordinary grace can be quite terrifying when she stiffens her muscles of steel, sends the sweat pouring down her steaming flanks, sets her elegant wheels spinning in their wide circles, and hurtles away, full of life, at the head of an express or a boat-train.
The other, Engerth by name, is a strapping saturnine brunette given to uttering raucous, guttural cries, with a thickset figure encased in armor-plating of cast iron; a monstrous creature with her disheveled mane of black smoke and her six wheels coupled together low down, she gives an indication of her fantastic strength when, with an effort that shakes the very earth, she slowly and deliberately drags along her heavy train of goods-wagons. — Joris-Karl Huysmans
![Low Effort Quotes By Matt Taibbi Low Effort Quotes By Matt Taibbi](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-matt-taibbi-2165013.jpg)
All of this goes back to Bill Clinton. It's not a coincidence that radical welfare reform took place on the same watch that also saw a radical deregulation of the financial services industry. Clinton was a man born with a keen nose for two things: women with low self-esteem and political opportunity. When he was in the middle of a tough primary fight in 1992 and came out with a speech promising to "end welfare as we know it," he could immediately smell the political possibilities, and it wasn't long before this was a major plank in his convention speech (and soon in his first State of the Union address). Clinton understood that putting the Democrats back in the business of banging on black dependency would allow his party to reseize the political middle that Democrats had lost when Lyndon Johnson threw the weight of the White House behind the civil rights effort and the War on Poverty. — Matt Taibbi
![Low Effort Quotes By Mas Oyama Low Effort Quotes By Mas Oyama](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-mas-oyama-1486557.jpg)
One living daily in the Way carries their head low and their eyes high; reserved in speech and possessing a kind heart, they steadfastly continue in their training efforts. — Mas Oyama
![Low Effort Quotes By Carol S. Dweck Low Effort Quotes By Carol S. Dweck](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-carol-s-dweck-1476603.jpg)
This low-effort syndrome is often seen as a way that adolescents assert their independence from adults, but it is also a way that students with the fixed mindset protect themselves. They view the adults as saying, "Now we will measure you and see what you've got." And they are answering, "No you won't." John Holt, the great educator, says that these are the games all human beings play when others are sitting in judgment of them. — Carol S. Dweck
![Low Effort Quotes By Charles R. Swindoll Low Effort Quotes By Charles R. Swindoll](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-charles-r-swindoll-1400506.jpg)
Our great tendency in this age is to increase our speed, to run faster, even in the Christian life. In the process our walk with God stays shallow, and our tank runs low on fumes. Intimacy offers a full tank of fuel that can only be found by pulling up closer to God, which requires taking necessary time and going to the effort to make that happen. — Charles R. Swindoll
![Low Effort Quotes By Eric Thomas Low Effort Quotes By Eric Thomas](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-eric-thomas-1341262.jpg)
When your effort is low, you're probably not thinking about the opportunity, you're thinking about the obligation. — Eric Thomas
![Low Effort Quotes By Amy Lockwood Low Effort Quotes By Amy Lockwood](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-amy-lockwood-1167244.jpg)
Polak, a psychiatrist, has applied a behavioral and anthropological approach to alleviating poverty, developed by studying people in their natural surroundings. He argues that there are three mythic solutions to poverty eradication: donations, national economic growth, and big businesses. Instead, he advocates helping the poor earn money through their own efforts of developing low-cost tools that are effective and profitable. — Amy Lockwood
![Low Effort Quotes By Laurell K. Hamilton Low Effort Quotes By Laurell K. Hamilton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-laurell-k-hamilton-1005906.jpg)
The feeling of being trapped, of being helpless against his strength, his lust, and what my body needed was almost overwhelming. My eyes shuttered closed at the effort of not struggling in his harsh grasp. He whispered against my face, and I could not focus enough to see him. "Do you want to ride the storm?" His breath was hot against my skin. His voice promised no gentleness, no compromise. I knew the kind of sex he was offering, and the thought of it tightened things low in my body, drew another small sound from my throat. "Yes," I whispered, "yes." The roll of thunder echoed down the hallway, shuddering between the stone walls. The sound seemed to vibrate out of his body and into mine as if my body were a tuning fork struck against the rim of some great metal cup. His voice growled against my skin, with the taste of thunder in it. "Good," he said and forced me to my knees. — Laurell K. Hamilton
![Low Effort Quotes By Shannon L. Alder Low Effort Quotes By Shannon L. Alder](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-shannon-l-alder-811775.jpg)
God has a plan and guess what? The plan is to stop waiting for him to do everything for you. The person you want in your life is not a sign. Not a clue. Not a wish. Not a prayer. Not a tarot card or a matter of timing. It is work. It is devotion, and like any dream if you want it then God will open doors for you to obtain it. You just have to stop setting the bar so low that everything below is a sign from God and everything above is asking too much. — Shannon L. Alder
![Low Effort Quotes By Rachel St. John-Gilbert Low Effort Quotes By Rachel St. John-Gilbert](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-rachel-st-john-gilbert-777340.jpg)
Taking the high road is hard work-- walking uphill requires strength and effort. Anyone can take the low road--walking downhill is easy. — Rachel St. John-Gilbert
![Low Effort Quotes By Carol Lee Low Effort Quotes By Carol Lee](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-carol-lee-323484.jpg)
My parents never recognized the things that for me were achievements. I was praised for the things that came naturally to me, like my intelligence, but when I really put all my effort into looking nice (trying to), it went unrecognised. No-one ever told me I looked pretty or nice, or that I was a beautiful person (to them) and I needed them to... — Carol Lee
![Low Effort Quotes By Curtis Sittenfeld Low Effort Quotes By Curtis Sittenfeld](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-curtis-sittenfeld-263996.jpg)
This possibility was not flattering to me; it was terrifying. There were other things a guy could think I was, and he wouldn't be entirely wrong - nice, or loyal, or maybe interesting. Not that I was always any of those thing, but in certain situations, it was conceivable. But to be seen as pretty was to be fundamentally misunderstood. First of all, I wasn't pretty, and on top of that I didn't take care of myself like a pretty girl did; I wasn't even one of the unpretty girls who passes as pretty through effort and association. If a guy believed my value to lie in my looks, it meant either that he'd somehow been mislead and would eventually be disappointed, or that he had very low standards. — Curtis Sittenfeld
![Low Effort Quotes By Martha N. Beck Low Effort Quotes By Martha N. Beck](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-martha-n-beck-170284.jpg)
The effect of emotional venting is to sustain an unsatisfactory status quo. Most people think the opposite, that complaining is part of an effort to change an unsatisfying situation. Nope. Complaining lets off pressure so that we neither explode with frustration nor feel compelled to take the often risky steps of openly opposing a difficult person or situation. Keeping emotional pressure tolerably low doesn't change problematic circumstances but rather perpetuates them. — Martha N. Beck
![Low Effort Quotes By R. Buckminster Fuller Low Effort Quotes By R. Buckminster Fuller](https://quotessayings.net/pics/low-effort-quote-by-r-buckminster-fuller-116262.jpg)
Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary - the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trimtab.
It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trimtab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you altogether. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go.
So I said, call me Trimtab. — R. Buckminster Fuller
