What about the myriad studies that have shown the opposite? The studies that show how kids that don’t have a parent at home are more likely to get into trouble as they grow older, don’t form the right bonds when they are younger, etc.? You found the studies that were convenient to you and kicked away the others, not to mention years of anecdotal proof that shows that kids raised in daycare are much more prone to having problems.

I sure enjoy this blog but this seems like a shameful post.

Most people work at jobs they either don’t like or wouldn’t be doing if there were more desireable alternatives. When things go wrong, as they will even when you love what you do, the stress is magnified. Add to that the fact that so many jobs aren’t doable in the time alotted, due to competition, technology, layoffs, etc.

When you love what you do you feel energetic and refreshed, even when you’re super busy, so you can accomplish so much more. Plus I think you don’t have that looming pressure to retire, which is really the ultimate escape hatch, the “somewhere over the rainbow” we work toward. When you love what you do, you’re already there.

Dominion is a great game! I enjoy both versions (online and offline).

And could you ask for anything more?

I’m at that point with my normal job. I’ll often times fire up my work email and just make sure everything is running smoothly because I love my work! :)

…who doesn’t? :D

Another thing that helps me is multi-tasking. I have a lot of time in my day where I am pretty much idle (on the bus, in between classes) and this is where I try to get something productive done.

Brainstorming has become a large part of my life. Whenever I think of a blog post I immediately pull out my iphone and start typing away. My girlfriend gets annoyed at times but she knows that this is what I love doing.
