The only issue i have is that if everybody had that mentality would we still have people wanting to work for minimum wage jobs that they don't really enjoy?
Ehmm, no. And we don't actually need starbucks or supermarkets.
Most jobs at one level or another will have tasks that aren't that glamorous but we will still need people to do them. The very idea of success is based on the concept of failure. In order for someone to be following a dream we need someone to have lost one. The up can only be thought of because of the down. I would say that at this present time it is impossible for everybody to follow there dream job in the sense that we will still need many basic manual tasks that aren't that fun and have long hours that still need to be done.
If we can develop free energy, and machines to do these tasks then i believe it will one day be possible for everybody to follow ones dream job or that which makes them happy.
That being said things happen for a reason and having a difficult low paid high hour job can indeed be a useful learning experience. Just like in the Victorian times we had a 16 hour working day, the advancements in technology have allowed us to half this into a 7/8 hour working day. Perhaps in time it will be lessen to just a few hours a day maintaining machines to take care of these tasks.
Machines have feelings too. It's all totally unnecessary but you have to be willing to think/feel totally outside this current -or historical box, so to speak.
