Read Proverbs 6:6-11  These 5 verses talks about a lazy person.  Verse 6 tells the lazy person to go to the ant and to learn how they should be acting.  The ant works hard preparing for wintertime.  The ant is a tiny little creature, but is always working and preparing.  Verse 7 says that the ant doesn't even have a boss to make her do her work.  She just knows her job and does it without being told.  The ant knows that winter is coming and she had better get a lot of food stored up ahead of time.  She knows what needs to be done and no one has to tell her to do it.  That is a great example for us!  Should someone have to tell us to brush our teeth in the morning and before we go to bed?  Should someone have to tell us to get ready for church?  We can tell time - we should know when it is time to get ready for church.  Should someone have to tell us to feed the dog or to give it water?  Should someone have to tell us that the garbage has to be taken out?  When we walk by the trash can, we can see for ourselves when it is full and we should know to take the garbage out without being told.  If we want privileges like an adult, we should act like an adult!  No one should have to tell us to do our job.  No one tells the ant.  But then verses 10 & 11 describe a lazy person.  A lazy person is called a sluggard.  Have you ever seen how slow a slug moves as it slithers along the ground?  That is the same way that a sluggard moves along - really, really slow.  The sluggard lays around and puts off doing their work until it is too late.  A sluggard never has anything because they won't work to have what they need.  They are just plain lazy!  So which would you like to be like?  The lazy person with nothing or the hard working ant with plenty stored up for the winter?
