I think I direct myself by saying that I need to get myself to a point where I am constantly doing work that is stimulating and gives me the opportunity to constantly be learning. I sometimes hate doing the prosaic work, but when I think about it, that is what enables me to do the thinking stuff. Deb Jane,

No one is ever free of all constraints. So, to your point, it makes sense to understand which constraint limits our happiness most significantly, and work on overcoming that. Walter Reade Jane,
