The author is full of crap!! ;) (scnr) Yes, he spotted traits many hn user have in common. But traits alone mean very little. The real trick is having your mind under control. That way you can have success with very different attitudes. "Boring work" can be a flow activity; the "lazy way" can be a successful one. Claiming that you have to "work hard well past the point where the work is enjoyable." is just idiotic. Sure, it can happen occasionally but people who behave like that can indeed burn out in the long term and damage their health seriously. /edit: interesting how a little irony and a few lines of harmless opinion get you a downvote in no time.
