Completing Daily Tasks Yourself! Is There Personal Value In It? Is It Better to Cook Your Own Food? Do Your Own Home Repairs? Rake Your Own Lawn? How Much Value Is Personal Pride from Projects Worth?
Description
The Best Paragraph I've Read:
Modern life often prizes prepackaged conveniences. We buyready made products, eat frozen pizzas and replace what’s broken instead of fixing it. The more successful we become, the more likely we are to outsource jobs that we might have once done ourselves. Yet the effort of involvement is what gives meaning to so much of life.
This paragraph comes from an essay in the Wall Street Journal. The author is Moshe Bar. You can read the full essay here:

Zac & Don discuss the meaning behind doing things. They wonder if it is better to make your own repairs and cook your own food. They discuss whether there is value is not outsourcing the daily tasks you can do for yourself.
