the people.
ab' lincoln once said, democracy is of the people, by the people, and for the people. but does it fall into the truth of "the people"? yes, it does—but not in a traditional manner.
but why do the people matter? because they generate cash doing jobs that run a system, the society, and all, and all, and all.
whether it is politics, the entertainment industry, or even a small community, without the cash flow of the people, it just wouldn't work. therefore, they must be given something they can connect with.
and when one lacks talent, the game of manipulation is left as the last option.
i mean, who the hell came up with the "make your passion your profession" shit? that just doesn’t make any sense. i mean, of course, you can make your passion your profession, but it wouldn’t be your passion anymore. the stress you'd have—it will come from the profession aspect of it, not the passion aspect.
now you’re in a position where you cannot have fun with your passion because you’re stressed out by your profession.
if em' had followed his passion, he’d be the head chef of a michelin-starred hotel in france. but is he? nope. based on his ikigai chart, he’s doing what he’s supposed to.
although he’s nowhere close to the definition of success set by the world, what the hell.!!
