RE: THIS IS BS: Find Your Passion. Live Your Passion

you always write such inspiring posts. I find myself currently struggling with passion, purpose, and practicality. Do I keep getting jobs that just pay the bills so that I don't go into debt? Or do I take a leap of faith and try to pursue that passion? Right now I'm trying to force myself to pursue my passion even with my full time job, since as you said, those rainy days will come, and if I can't make it work then, it won't work ever. Thanks for sharing!

There are generally two schools of thought here, @corinneiskorean.

One, you go in full leap into your passion, and as they say, build the plane while you fall of the cliff. Risky, but the pressure will push you into rapid, massive action.

Two, you approach slower but with strategy. Start by asking yourself how much you need to survive every month, and multiple that by six. That should be your savings. In the mean time, start working on your passion a few hours a week, maybe an hour on weekdays, and the more on weekends.

I generally prefer the second, though the first will make you so desperate that you have no choice but to make shit work!
