Entrepreneurs don’t like a lot of things and that’s why they set themselves to change the world. They also live in utopias but they are different because they deeply believe that those utopias can and will change.
My interaction with some entrepreneurs always lead me to observe that most are very opinative and engaged with different areas outside of their focus/professional area. Politics and “life” are usually hot topics.
But does being opinative and engaged contributes to unhappiness?
I’ve been reflecting about it under 2 different perspectives: 1) Does the lack of expectations contributes to being happy? 2) Does getting high discussing and engaging into different issues affects happiness somewhat? In my opinion engaging in deep issues, introduces friction against many people and things, leading to some unhappiness “drivers”.
Some people see entrepreneurs as unhappy. But they don’t get that happiness is like Christmas: it happens whenever and how you want it to happen. Entrepreneurs are awesome at converting their passions into Happiness…. I radical type of happiness that makes them breath and get out of bed every single day for causes that others wouldn’t. The outcome of their fight is just unique to them.
Many people will never get that.
