Burgers or Blogging? Further Thoughts on Pursuing Your Passion
Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve been exploring the nature of work at Get Rich Slowly. What does it mean to pursue your passion? Is passion what work should be about? Or is a job just a source of income?
For me, there’s no right answer.
Right now, yes, I’m pursuing my passion, and I love it. As a full-time writer working from home, I’m doing work I’ve always wanted to do, and I do it on my own schedule. Yet I recognize this isn’t what everyone wants. Kris, for instance, loves her job and her co-workers. She finds the work fulfilling, and she likes the security of having an employer take care of things like taxes, paychecks, and health insurance.
