I do believe it’s a combination of culture and generation, not so much industry. Starting with the cultural aspect, a definitive trait of western culture is the question of “do I *want* to do this? If I don’t, it’s not worth doing” which contrasts from the more impersonal values regarding work in the East. And then generational factors are pretty obvious, just by plain observation, even across many cultures.

Want versus must or should is a great way to frame it. Thanks.
