Default "Do What You Love" doesn't work if...

...there is no market for what you love.

I love many activities, but most of them don't pay any money...like hanging around at my local pub or taking a stroll on the beach. Nope, earnings are slim there.

I also love acting and I'm very good at it...BUT...I'm not willing to give up my "well-rounded" life to dedicate myself 24/7 to auditions. My beach-walking is just too important to me.

I am in the process of learning now that you can "love" a lot of things. So I'm finding new "things" to "love"..."things" that have a market.

Plus, if you "love" making money...which I do...then a lot of things...things that you never even would have considered doing before...become "love"-worthy.

So, instead of trying to make money from what you love...how about learning to love something that makes money?
