“A lot of people” don’t commit to the thing, because “A lot of people” aren’t into the thing in the first place. As a very dysfunctional human being myself, who often struggles with bringing themself to do something even in the spheres they love, i still fail to see your logic. You don’t need to spend any amount of time to prove you love something. You don’t need to prove anything in the first place. But do you really love it, if you don’t wanna commit to it, go out of your way to find the opportunity? Could you really say you love sweet buns, if you don’t bake them, don’t buy them, and when you accidentally stumble upon one, you only eat the raisins out of it, throwing out the rest? I don’t think so. There’s nothing wrong with liking only raisins. But saying that you love sweet buns would be very dishonest and misleading of you in that case, wouldn’t it?
Finally, spending your life on something has nothing to do with the shitty paywalled education system.
He said “spend their lives on…”, that’s a level of commitment a lot of people simply can’t have.
