Who's telling children hard work will get them to the TOP? I thought we tell children that hard work pays off and is more likely to get you into a better position than being a slacker.

What are you talking about. Shareholders own the business and appoint the directors to make decisions. It's their business and presumably want a return on their money.

Good luck with that. Come back in a couple years and tell us how it went. Maybe you can automate your divorce too.

You cannot make people feel ownership. It's like me saying I can motivate someone to feel the "ownership" of my house (even though they are not on title). Ownership is you know, actually OWNING something.(Shares, body/he

It will fix the problem. Burnout is the state of being overworked/underpaid and lacking autonomy agency (because one made bad life choices to support a family, debts, limited mobility). Most people feel like they are poor little artifa

You took the whole "value provided" into a strange direction. Money is a number of things. It is also captured reciprocal altruism, the "value" you provide is often times compensated with money. (Not always) "Landin

The odds of winning the lottery are better than improving yourself and taking control of the value you provide to people?

Those studies of money being binary and motivation are bullshit. Ask how many people earning 1 million dollars a year (doctors, etc) feel about working 80 hour weeks.

You would work 1-2 years and retire for rest of your life. Then you can focus on your art and passions.

Burnout is a psychological state of being over worked and underpaid/appreciated. Decrease chance of burnout by exponentially increasing pay. Another way to avoid burnout is having multiple income streams and therefore being able to tel

The solution to burnout: - get paid way more Many people will happily work 14 hour days for a 1 million/year Salary. I promise you they will not burnout. But the crux of it is that employers must optimize burnout with labour expense.

Have you talked to poor people lately? I'm consistently shocked at how they choose to watch TV, do drugs, and quick to blame other people. I try to help people and share opportunities that seem in line with their experience and skills.

Hotels have been used like this forever. People run their homes like hotels and are shocked to find that people treat it as such.

I just did. Simply incorporated myself and started earning 250k USD as a contractor. It seems more risky to me to spend your most precious years in some awful open office shit hole.

I don't want anything. The point is that the pioneers did what they had to do.

This bodes well for Men With Work (or ambition). Also bodes well for pro-UBC arguments. I don't think the early pioneers needed "work" to catch food, build shelter, and grow a harvest.

Look at what people do, not what they are saying. They are motivated by all the great things money provides (nice family life, nice house, travel, health care) That 78% of respondents are brained washed to repeat "do it for the passion

Tricking children? You let your toddler or child on the internet with no supervision and then they find something you do not like. What kind of victomhood article is this?

Overworking is a problem only if you are underpaid. 80 hour weeks for a year if I get paid 1 million dollars? Hell yeah. "Monk Mode" all the way.

No. You deserve exactly what you have right now. Nothing more, nothing less. Read Napolean Hill's "The Laws of Success". A basic rule to use to succeed at life is: - always render more service, and at a higher quality than th
