Something not a lot of people know about me is, that I do not run Willpower fulltime, but have decent dayjob as well. In practice this means that I regularly work long hours in the evening and on weekends, which, in most cases, would automatically lead to a burnout or at least a reduced quality of life. I am glad to say, that I cannot confirm this. The reason why I enjoy this life and ‚work‘ very often does not feel like ‚work‘ (in a stressful sense) is equally simple as it is obvious:
I love what I do.
Since I was a teenager I invested huge amounts of time and energy in all sorts of voluntary endeavors and projects, simply because I felt like. I never regretted a single one of them and this includes the countless projects that were not even close to what you call a ‚success’ and which I lost money on haha!
Anyway, who am I to give advices, so here’s my advice: Give it a shot! What the hell do you have to lose.
