no one should be considered to have done something wrong because of how they choose to spend their time, provided that time is being spent on useful work (see below). specifically, one should be held accountable for doing bad things, but one should not be held accountable (not even in the sense of being considered to have a vice) for not doing good things (provided useful work is being done instead, see above), except those things which are specific (explicit) duties.

note: you can consider someone's time allocation stupid or unhelpful, just not a vice

in the above, useful work means useful for the world, not just for oneself, and that means anything that, after you die, will leave the world in a better state than if you hadn't done it.

to prevent goals from becoming static (dynamic equilibrium), each person should, as much as possible (see below), be free to choose what they work on each day (each minute, even).

as much as possible: some people may have directly contradictory ideas of what makes the world a better place.

for instance, one person may think it would be better if everyone were dead, and try to work on a gigantic bomb. it is reasonable for others to prohibit this.

there's nothing wrong with trying to convince one another that some work is more profitable than other, provided that those who choose the supposedly less profitable route aren't considered less
