Even John Adams had his lazy days. Consider this quote from his diary:
“I have read about 10 Pages in Justinian and Translated about 4 Pages into English. This is the whole of my Days Work. I have smoaked, chatted, trifled, loitered away this whole day almost. By much the greatest Part of this day has been spent, in unloading a Cart, in cutting oven Wood, in making and recruiting my own fire, in eating nuts and apples, in drinking ”

sounds like a good day to me. Adams was his toughest critic. He longed to spend his days reading. In one diary entry written while on the circuit court he wrote how he missed his wife his children and his books.
and would often “waste days” reading.
