True. But you should have more motivation to keep at it and work around complicated problems. There was no mention of running away every time a project gets challenging. Just pointing out that if you truely love what you do, nothing can h

It all comes down to passion/love. It's easy to get in the zone while hacking with new technology, eating Thanksgiving dinner, or having sex you know... but there's no way I could get in the zone while baking cookies. It's simple, if you'r
