We all know someone who quit their job to pursue their passion only to end up hating it.
They ended up hating it because it became a job to them. What happened here? Well, they used their passion as a tool to pay their bills.
There’s an important nuance between using your passion as a tool to pay your bills and being supported from your passion.
We want to get to the place where we’re being supported from something that we love to do, but before we get there, using our passion as a tool to pay our bills will turn it into a job.
You’ll end up hating what you do because it breeds compromise.
