Thanks for the David Foster Wallace, I doesn't know that guy, I will look deeper into it. Yep, I'm aware that those 'basic truths' are valuable and I don't say otherwise. The Chomsky quote wasn't just about that psychotherapist maxim, it's that one that made me tilted. These maxims sound to me like if the job is not done it's the worker who got a problem and need to change. I'm just trying to say that maybe it could be the nature of the work and how we see it. For example I am one of those who have really a lot of never-ending-awesome-side-projects. I'm fine with it. As soon as I realize that particular job is more fun 'not to be completed' but because it allows me to learn more, share with others, discover techniques and occasionally strange weird reasons (wage?)! The completion is just a social reward (and yeah maybe I often fear the 'what to do next' desert). The path to completion is so much more valuable to me. We need more maxims to realize all the small ignored ends on the ongoing projects. Sometimes an idea is cool because of one of those ends, which is already done, and it would be a shame (and a time loss) to force yourself to continue. P.S: I don't preach a do-never-finish lifestyle, it needs personal balance.
