One of the biggest turnoffs is being presented with an idea that's already, to a degree, complete. That's not an adventure, and it's not a learning experience. It's more of a chore. Then you become a technician with taste, as opposed to an explorer and an author.

You do not get gold stars for cleaning your toilet. In actual life, there is a depressing lack of stickers.
