TK: I want to let go of the need to be productive as a justification for being or doing what isn't my true desire. Marvett: Why do we participate in so many things that don't truly matter to us? TK: Because it does matter to you on some level, right? The approval of other people matters to you. It is not your job to make them happy. It is your job to understand what makes you happy and to exclude everything else.
