I’m obviously not saying that you shouldn’t have a job or you shouldn’t have hobbies, BUT I am giving you a warning that most of us guys struggle to keep these things in balance. We’re drawn to careers and certain hobbies because we can “keep score” (with earning money or winning awards) in a way that validates or egos.
