Career Choices: Follow Your Passion?

[sagar13d]

For those of you with unfulfilled entrepreneurial dreams, there are a couple of blog posts. Jon over at OnMoneyMaking says don’t do what you love. He thinks that stupid. He obviously had a lot of foresight early in life because he started building his resume at around nine years of age. And the result was that despite a college degree in English, all his other activities scored him a six-figured salaried job upon graduation.

I would have to disagree. Why on God's green earth would you have a policy of not doing what you love?! That's insane. The key is what a very wise mentor of mine once told me: Whatever you choose to do for a living, make sure that you (1) enjoy it and (2) be at least somewhat good at it. Without both of these, you'll never truly be successful. My experiences have revealed no truer truth.
