I don't think he is addressing people who do physical labor.

  It's still worth pointing out, since it's easy to take an aphorism like this and assume it covers everything.

    It's also pretty easy not to.

      Well, let's use that excuse for everything then. Never advise anyone on anything one person might find 'easy'. It's easy not to fall prey to the constant crap that the news media throws out - but hey, it's 'easy', so let's not remind people that news media has an agenda. It's easy to find flaws in creationist arguments, so screw it, don't oppose the bad science there. It's easy to remember where the assembly point is for the fire drill, so no need to put up signs. Hell, it's easy to remember to brush your teeth, so let's not remind people about the importance of brushing teeth. What you say is the worst excuse I have heard in a long time, and betrays a fundamental lack of understanding of human psychology.

  Farmers do Some physical labor, but their real job is management. Separates the successful (very few) from those that putter around painting fences and tinkering with the equipment, but who never study commodities futures or write a schedule.
