Philosophical question that is practical for me :)

Do you guys think that the amount of time you are willing to spend on something reflects how much you like the thing?

For example, say I really enjoy studying for the LSAT for about 25 minutes, (after which it becomes a drag) does that indicate that I don't really enjoy studying? Or to put it in philosophical terms: does the quantity of time you are willing to spend on a given thing correspond to the amount you enjoy doing that thing?

Hmm judging by how much I've been procrastinating my Personal Statements, I think you might be on to something.

Nah. I spent a lot of time studying when I would have rather been a million other places. Deferred gratification is a hell of a thing.

Must be.

For example, I enjoy sleeping. In fact, I enjoy it so much I could put in a solid 12 hours a day and not even be remotely tired afterwards.
