Life is a long, long game. Your job is to stay alive. When Steve — or anyone else — encourages well roundedness, he’s not saying you can do less, or phone it in. He’s saying obsessive, singular focus cannot be sustained over long periods of time, and you need to find hobbies, outlets— other things to comprise your identity, besides your One Thing When he tells the story of the runner who successfully made the transition from college to Olympic level athletics by taking up knitting, he doesn’t mean she practiced or trained less. She just had a way to take a break for once. You can’t go at 100 forever. The grindset narrative is in part a propaganda tool of capital to get more out of you than they deserve. They want you to be a slave — Capital doesn’t care about your long term well being. Capital doesn’t care about you making it through the game. To them you are a fungible unit, not a precious human life.

Balanced hobbies and breaks are essential for long-term success and mental health. Avoid falling into the trap of constant grindset mentality pushed by capital
