How Important Is Sector To You?

Recently had this discussion with a friend and would be curious to hear other people's thoughts.

Personally, I feel rather strongly about sector as there are some sectors I just don't feel I would be interested in reading about all day (e.g. O&G). However, also talked with people where it is simply the love for investing that matters and they could be passionate about essentially any sector.

Would be interesting to hear other thoughts on this.
