Maybe there is a middle way. A more nuanced definition of success.
- notacoward 6y agoGreat observation. Thank you. I think there is a middle way, but it's not so much about definitions as about balance. There's a time to sow (work) and a time to reap (rest and enjoy). Of course you have to sow before you can reap, but if all you do is sow then your final yield is zero. You have to alternate, maximizing the product of the two instead of either alone.
- bigbizisverywyz 6y agoI think the middle way is going home to your family or SO, somewhere between 9-5 :)
