And my definition of love from an operationalizing perspective is that you measure it by what you're willing to give up in order to maintain it.
the man who loves the journey will walk further than the man who loves the destination but the man who walks to protect his family will walk until the other man dies they've done research on this where they have someone get shocked and then eventually they tap out right at a pain threshold when they told the same people that their loved ones were in the other room and every shock they took their loved ones wouldn't have to their threshold tripled
Think about how crazy this is.
And the reason I think this is so relevant is that if you want to do big things, it will cost you great pain.
And so the why is your passion, not the path.
And so this is why people talk about finding your passion because it'll get you through the inevitable hard times that come.
But whenever you hear someone say that, first off, I don't think they have bad intent.
I think they just don't think about it as much.
But when you hear that, just remember,
It will get you through the inevitable hard times that come is the definition of passion.
It is the requisite for it being your passion.
If passion, the literal translation in Latin is suffering and endurance.
To endure suffering.
The passion of Christ.
The crucifixion story.
The first usage of suffering in this context.
Don't you think that the thing that you're going for, maybe it's to set yourself up financially, to set your family up financially, to move into a better neighborhood, to set your kids up to have something that you didn't have.
Don't you think that's worth suffering for?
Whatever that is for you.
And so I want to make duty cool again.
