most people don't enjoy thinking. they also don't enjoy running marathons.
because both things are painful. they are also time consuming.
they only becoming enjoyable or worthwhile when you have a sufficient level of practice. for someone who is a couch potato, running a marathon is impossible without months or years of hard work, and they also likely think marathon running is stupid and pointless and there is likely something 'wrong' with people who run marathons.
thinking and using your mental faculties are no different than your physical ones.
