“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

The notion that I do my work here, now, like this, even when I do not feel like it, and especially when I do not feel like it, is very important.

And that emotional waiver is why this is your work and not your hobby.
