Well, the key is that you trade your time for something and — if it is indeed harder to find a fulfilling work — you wish to maximize that something in a time you do work in order to be able to allocate more time towards more satisfactory ends.

I tried something like that. What happened was that the free time I had left was completely unproductive. Doing unfulfilling work is exhausting, turns out.

Not saying I have all the answers, just what happened to me. This fulfilling thing is hard.

Billions of people go to work everyday without doing it out of “passion”.
Sure, we’re extremely privileged.
