I fell into a similar trap when, after leaving my job to pursue my &amp;quot;passion,&amp;quot; I became my own slavemaster, treating myself as resource for production, and eventually learned to hate my once cherished activities. I hope OP&amp;#x27;s game succeeds; regardless, I would not recommend, to anyone, to pursue a personal hobby, dwelling, or passion as a means to reaching some external reward.</text></comment>

Ask for the post &amp;quot;Beyond Mere Malice&amp;quot; from the Parting Thoughts blog, November 2016.&lt;p&gt;Anyone going to do this?</text></comment>
