When friends pursuing authentic work lose the joy that inspired the change

My friend and I both left corporate jobs to pursue more authentic work, but now we spend all our time strategizing about our 'authentic path' and have lost the playful creativity that inspired the change. We've turned following our passion into another form of career planning.

The goal of living authentically has been colonized by the same optimization mindset they sought to escape.
