I think THIS is a nuanced and useful way to approach this topic. I felt the very same thing. "Get a good job or else you'll destroy your body doing 'hard labor'". I should be able to just will myself to work harder, for longer stretches. I'm just too weak to break through this low-spell. At least that's what I typically tell myself. There's certainly room in this discussion for the boundaries of self-care and not accepting inherently destructive work practices. Thanks for your thoughts on this. I appreciate them.
