a career you love

building a career you love. shit to read if you don't know what to do with your life.

I’ve learned that I can’t be very productive working on things I don’t care about or don’t like. So I just try not to put myself in a position where I have to do them (by delegating, avoiding, or something else). Stuff that you don’t like is a painful drag on morale and momentum.

I meet a lot of people searching for something (career, relationship, etc). And yet, when it’s put in front of them, they won’t pursue it because they fear pain (getting hurt, failure, etc.). So they unconsciously (and expensively) trade self protection for misery.

When you start to disentangle production, identity, and the matter of survival from one another, that relationship to doing can become much clearer, especially for those in the spaces of art and craft.
