my grass is already as green as I had always wanted it.

Which becomes its own struggle. Once you've hit an optimal shade of green, there is nothing left to do. Half of the enjoyment comes from actively working to make your proverbial lawn grow to be so green. Do you rip it up and start over to relive that enjoyment, or sit back and watch it grow?



The serial entrepreneur types tend to go make another lawn :P


I like to imagine that career development is sitting back and watching it grow. Maybe adding a shrub here or there.

(I'm not an entrepreneur, just a software engineer.)
