for me personally, i really dislike externally applied sources of work. I really enjoy internally applied sources of work.

In fact it’s like the primary thing i do in my freetime when i have energy, i just like to exert myself and apply my neuron capacity to something while i have the ability to do so. I think it’s sort of innate to the human experience that we must be doing something, why do we exist otherwise. We exist to exert ourselves in the pursuance of our goals, arbitrary or not, that is why we are here, and that is what we must engage in, lest we become undefinable organisms without purpose.

The ultimate question here naturally, is what you end up doing with that. That’s the hard part of the question.

Most of the modern world seems to be built in some capacity, if not entirely to exploit this function of ourselves, for our own gain. Which is definitely an interesting idea, though not my cup of tea philosophically.

The books seems interesting, thanks for sharing

Edit: watched it, seems to be Korean or American. As a European, while the pressure for productivity is still there, being able to enjoy your life, including days off and vacation, is still a thing.
