Quotes:
Dr. Robert Vallerand, a leading researcher on passion, distinguishes between two types of passion: obsessive and harmonious. He explains:
"Harmonious passion refers to a strong inclination to engage in the activity willingly and with a sense of volition. Obsessive passion, in contrast, refers to an uncontrollable urge to engage in the activity."
Dr. Philippe Rothlin, who coined the term "boreout," says: "Boreout is a growing phenomenon. It occurs when an employee is unmotivated by their tasks and has lost all enthusiasm for their work."
As Adam Grant puts it: "Rest is a supply of fuel. We take regular breaks to maintain energy and avoid burnout. Relaxing isn't a waste of time. It's an investment in wellbeing. Breaks aren't a distraction. They're a chance to reset attention and incubate ideas. Play isn't a frivolous activity. It's a source of joy."
