    I second the recommendation by @wrenpile to read this post about convenience and struggle and how we must realize that making everything convenient robs us of life experience. We run, not because it is easy but because it is hard. We went to the moon, not because it was easy but because it was hard. Let’s recognize that « hobbies » and « passions » are just inconvenient things we like doing anyway. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/16/opinion/sunday/tyranny-convenience.html
