I find this take to be totally opposite to my way of thinking. Surely doing things for fun is the most important part of life? That is, if you don’t enjoy doing something then doing that something is a much bigger waste of time than doing something you genuinely enjoy. Are you suggesting the OP would be better off doing something boring or annoying or something he dislikes? Would you suggest to your children that they should do a job or work in a field they don’t enjoy? The world is moved forward by people following their passions and interests, and I would argue that the OP is likely to advance his life AND career much faster by pursuing his passions than doing something he dislikes.
