Not everyone wants to be a boss. Not everyone wants tons of money. Not everyone needs "success" in a societal sense.

It doesn't make us lazy at all. It just means we don't care about the false adversity created to keep us in false fear when in reality harmony is the way to health, longevity and true joy.

Maybe we want to sing and dance, grow food, make art, music and love. Maybe those things aren't a privilege and time for them shouldn't be limited. Maybe they aren't meant to be monetized and monopolized. Maybe they're an honest life and the grind is the lie.

I no longer am ambitious in the sense I want a promotion or raise. I certainly don't want to be a boss. Every year my work makes us make goals and we are asked our long term goals. I don't have any lol. My goal is to be happy and do a good job, why must I always want to get promoted?

@JimboSaturn Completely relate to this answer. Every couple years I guess the people I work for get caught up in leadership culture and will play the "we care about your development and growth" game. Just let me do my work and pay me and leave me alone.
