i think you’re hitting the nail on the head emphasizing passion.

so often people entirely disregard passion for the work when theorizing that no one would be a ceo for less than $40million.

i haven’t ever seen studies done surrounding the issue, but i’d bet far more innovation comes from people doing something because they’re passionate than it does from monetary reward.

there’s a tipping point somewhere when innovation takes a backseat to greed.

often greed directly leads to a willingness to destroy a things essence or just chip away at the thing completely ignoring the passion which brought it about in the first place.

edit: forgive me if this seems a bit heavy handed—just watched Its a Wonderful Life with the family for Christmas so maybe i’m feeling a bit jaded towards greed.
