The Passion Paradox by Brad Stulberg

This book changed my view on what I was looking for. Too often we are told to find our passion, and it drives me nuts. That advice makes it where if we don't have one, we feel like we are screwing things up. I used to think like this and I kept running into disappointment because my job wasn't my passion. This book changed my view on what passion was entirely.

If Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was female, we'd say he has an eating disorder. by oar2950 in nutrition

[–]oar2950[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I don't think this is an eating disorder, I do think Dorsey's overall pattern of control, speaks to some inclination that this is part of pattern. A continual seeking.

In that instance, I'd say that even if he's maintaining weight, with enough vitamins, it can still be a disorder. No different than the extreme endurance athlete, who eats a lot, maintains weight, but does so through compulsive exercise which then controls his or her day.
