No? This is basically the philosophy of the "last man"

Many great things require overcoming the weakness of the flesh. From the moment you understand the weakness of your flesh it should disgust you.



So you are saying you’ve worked in your garden for 12 hours a day? Multiple days in a row?


Jokes aside yes people work very hard on things, even for years, if they believe in them. From dawn to dusk; of their own free will.

Work being bad is simply a slave mentality. It is because the slave does not get any return on their effort; only sustenance.


So you haven't then?


If Garden you mean Software then yes :)
