Why is Doing What You Love Dangerous?
It is a very popular mindset that you find today.
Companies are constantly looking for people whose ‘passion lies in their work’ who ‘love their jobs and can commit 100% to what they’re doing.’
All that is great. For people with a certain level of discipline.
If we did what we love every single day and what we love is slacking rather than working, the world would collapse.
Everybody would slack and sleep/play computer games/read fantasy novels and comics/engage in promiscuous behavior regularly with every good-looking person we meet.
For a lot of people, what they like the most is the feeling of pleasure. I suspect that the ratio of those who prefer work over sensual pleasure is perhaps 10% of the entire world’s population or less.
For such people, what would be the result of doing nothing other than what you love?
