> But I do reject the notion for MY life that I need to maximize every waking minute of my life for someone else or for some goal.
This... Learning this myself. Personal topic for another time, but yes.
> If you were sacrificing your values (family, health, etc) hustling and bustling, that's what I would mean. People get married and then work so much they never see their spouse or kids. End up divorced or sick. Stuff like that. I don't want that. I'm okay with being a millionaire instead of a billionaire if it means I can be happy and healthy. That's what I mean. But this is about ME. My definitions and values aren't necessarily for YOU. Hustle culture in general isn't for ME.
I can't agree more.
