Acharya Prashant explains that action is inevitable for human beings because our limbs, senses, and mind are configured to act. Being alive is synonymous with working, as action occurs continuously regardless of formal employment. He contrasts two ways of working: one where work is an organic expression of one's soul and heart, and another where work is a transactional burden performed solely for external rewards. In the latter case, work becomes a curse or an investment that one seeks to minimize to maximize the output, leading to a sense of torture and misfortune.
