Freedom = Success (And not the other way around)

More reaction to the New York Times article: "The Falling Down Professions" which I also blogged about below...

The really interesting shift isn’t from one profession to the next, but from one way of thinking about the arc of a career and working life in general to the next. It goes something like this:

Old version: work hard (for a very long time), achieve success, earn freedom (to retire and do all the things you missed out on while you were working)


New version: find work that affords you freedom = success
