That's the big question of our generation isn't it? Quit your dead end 40h/week dead end job because it's killing your motivation to dedicate yourself to what you actually wanna do but it's also what pays rent and cravings derived from being in such a scenario?

I'd rather leave everything behind than have this false sense of security which only drains your own personality. But not everyone is the same. Maybe you do have all the time and funding to enhance all the abilities you wish you had, then decide not to pursue it any longer.

On the other hand, maybe your only option is to believe you can be better at what you believe is right for you. And never quit. You only get this kind of vision when you're forced out of your comfort zone and start wondering why keep moving along amidst all the chaos that's left.

I honestly can't tell if we actually disagree about anything here.

I don't think we are, but in some, actually most, cases, quitting that job is not an option if you don't really believe in yourself and your ability in order to become less than mediocre in your passions.

If we get deeper into this conversation it'll get political and I'm really not looking for a fight right now. Specially because it involves different perspectives from different hemispheres.

I agree that it's often not possible to quit your job and honestly wouldn't advocate for most people to do that. I just think this framework also applies within a work context and get frustrated working with people who are persistently mediocre at their jobs.
