In early 1879, Van Gogh was a 26-year-old high school drop-out who took on a 6-month job to give Bible readings and care for the sick and poor. To show his commitment, he gave away all his possessions and moved into a small hut, sleeping on the floor. Unfortunately, the church that had hired him saw this as posturing and promptly fired him.
In August of the same year, Van Gogh moved to a neighboring village and took up drawing and writing. That summer, his younger brother Theo visited Van Gogh to deliver a rather uncomfortable message that the family was disappointed with his lack of direction in life, especially since he was the eldest of 6 children.
In one of Van Gogh's letters to Theo, he tries to convince him to see him as "something other than some sort of idler" and outlines the difference between destructive and constructive idling.
"There are idlers and idlers, who form a contrast. There's the one who's an idler through laziness and weakness of character, through the baseness of his nature…. Then there's the other idler, the idler truly despite himself, who is gnawed inwardly by a great desire for action, who does nothing because he finds it impossible to do anything since he's imprisoned in something, so to speak, because he doesn't have what he would need to be productive, because the inevitability of circumstances is reducing him to this point. Such a person doesn't always know himself what he could do, but he feels by instinct, 'I'm good for something, even so! I feel I have a raison d'être! I know that I could be a quite different man! For what then could I be of use, for what could I serve! There's something within me, so what is it! That's an entirely different idler."
"I grew up with having the fear of not being good enough for my dad"
