I need to have an impact in the world.
I want to do good.
And so even in service of that, they will have a lot of motivation.

I wish I was so consumed by passion that I could work 90 hours a week, 100 hours a week.
I wish I was like that.

Right.
And this is the problem with the positive identity.
