I love my job so much that if I won the lottery, I would keep doing it too, and I would hire people to do the boring stuff which doesn’t uniquely require me.
Yet, not having won the lottery, it remains the case that, at this job I love SO MUCH that I would keep doing it if I won the lottery, there are many subgoals and tasks which are boring, which aren’t shiny and interesting enough to draw my attention naturally, and which I must force myself to do. And if I don’t do them, my organization will proceed more slowly or not at all.
So to be more effective at this job I love, I either need to win the lottery, or I need to strength my attention-directing muscle.
