"The concept is ideal for all, but not realistic for many"
Working on your own on something you are passionate about is, in fact, not the ideal for all. Many many people see work as a paycheck. They derive their meaning from activities from outside of work.
One could argue they could enjoy work more if they incorporated a passion into it, but then what if they lose that stark line of separation? Some people may actually enjoy a clear line between work (make the money) and fun/meaningful stuff (spend the money on)
What if that passion loses its luster once its your work? What if you get most meaning from close relationships, how do you incorporate that into a job?
I'm wary of most things that say this is the ideal for everyone. There are universal needs but there are not universal ways to meet those needs.
