Ah, I see. Perhaps it is not showing up for you. There is a video from Prager University called Don’t Follow Your Passion that is in this post. If it’s not showing up you can find on YouTube. 🙂
LOL! Well, that’s not all that matters, becasue I’ve already seen it! It’s a video from the Dirty Job’s guy and he talks about chosing our path, career, jobs, in a wiser way, where rather than following our passion, we bring our passion to our work.
Very thought provoking IB. When I look back on my life,I realize that when I followed opportunity and applied passion – I was successful. When I chased my passion, I was not. That said, it appears that I agree with the video. However, I DID follow my passion far enough that I knew that wasn’t the way and was comfortable turning my back on it.

I think the video answered that pretty well. Opportunity. There are many roles that need to be filled, but nobody is filling them.

It’s ok, not your fault! As long as it is still there on your end, that’s all that matters.
