Honestly I put "NEED to get paid in order to live" but changed it to "I NEED to work" because of this. Even if I just decided to find a forest in the middle of nowhere to claim as my own, build a house, raise animals and farm the land I'm still working.
But since I do enjoy my hobbies of carpentry, metalworking and leatherworking, I don't really consider them work in the same sense. You're 100% correct.
I make stuff for people all the time, but it's on my own schedule when I feel like working on something, and I only accept orders when I feel like it. If I tried to do that full time, it's now not really up to me if I go work on something today. I have to or I get backed up, the customer gets pissed, and I'm losing money. Or the equivalent favors/barter.
